I'm not so sure. Billing/Virtual Panels just don't seem very popular and in my opinion, I like having a separate billing panel so I can offer multiple products. I may be wrong, but I do appreciate the suggestion.
How would that improve user experience? Just look at how DO or vultr handle it, I can't think of how a separate billing panel (separate login, 90% of the time with a different layout) would improve things. You could still have multiple products in a custom panel.
I know creating a billing module is time consuming. I bet WHMCS (or whatever is popular these days) has an API that you could completely integrate into your panel. It shows your users you went the extra mile

Not everything is about improving user experience from a convienence standpoint.
Writing billing software is dangerous path to go down if you're not a domain expert. That opens a whole new can of worms, separation of functionality can be a good thing.
Kind of where I'm at right now.
Update: I've got a basic setup of how everything is going to work. Contact me if you'd like to start doing a trial of it! You'll be provided with a VPS during this period so you can track the data from the panel compared to the VPS. PM me for info.
