Developed a complex Ruby on Rails Recurly orders server for easy subscription billing creation and on click crossselling.  The server allows new subscription creation, crossselling, upgrading and addons in a pipeline like format.  Orders can be placed at any point in the pipeline and then the orderee will follow the pipeline at that point.  Once a user has a subscription, they can upgrade or addon any product using a one click upgrade.
