How to monetise my CLI app?

I have a CLI app that I coded really quick. The tool takes some Excel sheets as input and produces other Excel reports useful for clients. Now I found some clients that want to pay for it and use on a monthly basis.

I'm looking for some platform to have web login, billing, so the user can sign in, purchase a monthly plan and then use the app via Web browser(e.g. upload a file, run the software, download a result file).

Is there such a thing?

    I found Outseta. https://www.outseta.com/demo Does anyone have any experience with them?

    I don't know if there is such a thing but I believe it's doable through Gumroad or a similar solution.

    With gumroad it's possible to generate unique license keys for each sale/subscription. Instead of dealing with web browser, could be easier to implement into CLI.
