Hi 🙂
twilit umbra
Can you give me a bit more context? Are you using Billing? Invoicing? Checkout? Something else?

Okay so you use Checkout, but then what? Is this for recurring payments or one-time payments? Are you trying to provision their account for the first payment in Checkout or future payments?

Yes so it is simple website with premium content and a paywall. Users subscribe to a monthly membership (with monthly recurring payments).
Therefore when they go through the Stripe Checkout, I need to update their account on the backend and turn a Boolean to true.
This Boolean will need to be updated every month, whether or not the user unsubscribes

Okay so for the first payment you should use checkout.session.completed specifically. This would tell you when the Subscription and its first Invoice is paid basically https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/fulfill-orders
For future cycles you should listen to invoice.paid specifically that indicates when an Invoice is paid properly. You can listen to other Events such as customer.subscription.updated to know when a Subscription is updated (cycle change for example, status change, etc) and also invoice.payment_failed (to know when a payment failed and when it will be retried next) and customer.subscription.deleted (when a Subscription is canceled, for example after too many failed payments)
