Hello 👋
We support various billing models based with subscriptions.
Based on your description, you'd likely want to look into usage-based billing model

Hello. I think that's what I'm looking for, I'm going to read the documentation. Thanks.

NP! 🙂 Good luck

I understand that a base product and all its possible variations must be created in the Stripe account. And link the product id with the product on the web, is it correct?
shadow spindle
Yup, that's correct

It is possible not to do that and send a different price each month. What we intend to do is a service to sell servers and plugins for the server. In such a way that the client must be able to hire a server, and if you want to add or remove add-ons.
Example:
- Base server: €11/month
-- Complement 1: €2/month
-- Complement 2: €2/month
-- Supplement 3: €5/month
We can have more than 100 plugins, and every month new plugins can be created. If we have to register each product/add-on with Stripe, it is a tedious task.

Good question. Trying to think of how you may be able to more easily do this.
I think with subscriptions like this you do at least need a price per unique thing you are charging for here. You could technically do something like have a price for each unique amount you are charging and re-use them between plugins but I don't know if there would be a good way to have them be named properly in the invoice.
Thinking on this and will get back to you

Okay thanks 😉

Hey @lyric jackal apologies on the really long delay getting back to you here. Unfortunately it looks like you do need to create a new product for each subscription item here at least if you are using Stripe's automatically generated invoices. If you want to be able to have different descriptions here for the same product/price you would need to do your own custom invoice pages/pdfs
