Hello @harsh cypress
No i am not using recurring[usage_type]='metered', should i use recurring when creating/updating the subscription. How is it going to impact the upgrade

#

The customer will be prorated for the unused time on the previous Price, and then charged for the remaining time on the new Price.

#

it's probably easier for you to understand if you test it out yourself

#

you can upgrade/downgrade the subscription in test mode via the Dashboard. You can also make use of https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks

let say i have the following tiers:

tiers 1 -> free ->0 - 25
tiers 2 -> free ->25 - 50

Ok so the proration applies only on the remaining unit but not on the amount due.

In my case if he need to pay 0$ because he used 10 unit out of 25, stripe will proration the 15 unit to the new plan.

And for the one with a 50$ bills if he has 30 unit and need to pay 50$, the proration will just add this units to the new item

i'm sorry but i don't quite understand the scenario. you should really just create the test Prices and subscription in test mode to see how it works

#

if you have any specific questions after testing it, let me know the test subscription id and i'd be happy to explain further
