Not sure I understand the ask? It's a €0 invoice so there's no payment due

[next echo]

the subscription says that next invoice is €0, i wanted to know what happens if i do nothing

Stripe will charge €0 to the user card?

[fallen swift]

Nothing, the invoice will be marked as paid

[next echo]

and if I have webhook on my site that listen to invoice.payment_succeeded does this invoice triggers this event?

[fallen swift]

Yup!

Actually, invoice.paid

payment_suceeded is generally not recommended

[next echo]

that's a problem for me because i generate things on invoice.payment_succeeded event and this isn't a real payment

[fallen swift]

That only fires if there's an actual payment, which in the case of €0 amount, there's not

[next echo]

maybe this saves me

[fallen swift]

Well, you should stop listening to that event and use invoice.paid. We recommend that event in our docs: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/overview#subscription-lifecycle

[next echo]

so invoice.payment_succeeded will not trigger on €0 invoice?

[fallen swift]

Correct

[next echo]

ok, that's good

but can you tell me why invoice.paid is recommended against invoice.payment_succeeded?

[fallen swift]

I just did: invoice.payment_succeeded only fires when there's an actual payment processed for the invoice

So if its a zero amount invoice (because of a trial/discount/credit), or paid out of band then it won't fire
