Yes, ideally
worthy prairie
We generally don't refund prorated credit following a cancellation. Would be applied to the customer balance. You'd need to handle the refund yourself

What do you mean by this sorry?
worthy prairie
You would need to issue a (partial) refund from Stripe for the payment

The idea of handling this was:
- Fetch the remaining prorated amount on the subscription
- Cancel the subscription
- Pass the remaining amount as a parameter to the refund API
worthy prairie
Well, you'd just cancel the subscription and pass prorate: true: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/cancel#cancel_subscription-prorate
That will generate an credit invoice item and apply to customer balance
So you can just use that amount as the basis of your refund

Okay, and if I refunded based on that amount, would it deduct from the customer balance? Or is there a risk of refunding a customer AND them still having a balance?
worthy prairie
You would need to manually adjust their balance: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/customer/balance#modifying
