Maxio Advanced Billing (formerly Chargify) provides an HTTP-based API that conforms to the principles of REST. One of the many reasons to use Advanced Billing is the immense feature set and surrounding community client libraries. The Maxio API returns JSON responses as the primary and recommended format, but XML is also provided as a backwards compatible option for Merchants who require it.
