[asterisk-users] Prepaid billing

[virendra bhati]

Hi Zohair,

By using only asterisk it's not possible. So used progremming languages and
do realtime billing at your ends.

like 1st caller will take complete amount ($5) and if 2nd call will come
then deduct used amount and share remaining amount to others like that.
