If as you say access to the database is via a single application database user, it will probably make more sense to use multiple schemas rather than multiple databases. Keeping everything in one database will simplify administration (e.g. making backups - ypu'll just need to dump the one database rather than looping through a variable number) and will make life easier if you ever need to do some kind of query involving multiple customers. There will also be less overhead when adding a new schema vs adding a new database.
and less overhead in connections, as one client connection can serve multiple customers
