I want to bill each subaccount separately through credit card and then
invoice the MBR associated with thos subaccounts. Is this what you are
doing?

Thanks,

Mark,

a MBR is a 'single billable entity'. We're doing what you want with
different billing groups, so every 'sub-ISP' has it's own group.
You can run seperate billing batches for each group.
