@neat olive not really, not without switching back to a trial

#

what are you really trying to do?

#

We have a feature that requires us to identify the 'billing cycle day', i.e. to identify that that we are 15 days into the subscription. To be able to test this, we need to create a stripe subscription that starts on X days before today, would this be possible?

You can use https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-backdate_start_date
Or you can use Test Clocks to advance time: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks

Thanks for the help

#

The first resource only modifies the start_date and not the current_period_start which would unfortunately not help in my case

#

But the 2nd looks more promising, although I'll have to have a look into it before I can confirm that to be the case
