👋 happy to help

[timber aspen]

the "blue" message is the one i'm talking about: our sub costs 99€/year, the current user can pay 50€ for the first year (and apply a special corporate discount, 15€ one shot), but he/she will pay 99€/year in the next renewals... the message is assuming he/she will pay 50€ because we setup the session with that special price (that will be upgraded after we receive the notification checkout.session.complete)

hi @visual urchin ! really tnx! 🙂

we are doing this because the Checkout session/paywall supports only one discount at a time, so we managed to achieve this "playing" with prices

[visual urchin]

I'm reading through your message, will be with you shortly

[timber aspen]

take your time, my "fault": it's a wall-of text 😂 i tried to describe my scenario to help understand the choices we made 😃

[visual urchin]

when creating a coupon https://stripe.com/docs/api/coupons/create you need to use a combination of 2 parameters https://stripe.com/docs/api/coupons/create#create_coupon-duration repeating and https://stripe.com/docs/api/coupons/create#create_coupon-duration_in_months 12

with that the coupon would only be applicable on the first year of the subscription and the message should reflect that

[timber aspen]

but this way the user couldn't add any other coupon

we need to let the user add another coupon, Checkout Session supports only one coupon

we are "upgrading" the subscription from 50€/year to 99€/year after the checkout.session.complete event, we just need to tell the user the truth 😂 but i can't find any way to customize that message

[visual urchin]

I don't follow what does that have to do with your use-case

sorry I might be a bit lost

just give me a sec to re-read your initial message

[timber aspen]

i'll try my best to describe it, sorry in advance for my english 😃 :

• we have 99€ subs
• we offer special corporate discount codes
• we offer special 1st year subs prices of 50€ in some use cases
• the checkout session supports only 1 discount code, so we cant create the session as usual and add a coupon, because this will prevent the user to "stack" his corporate discount
• so, we are creating a session with the 50€ price and no attached coupon, this way the user can add another discount code on the paywall
• when we receive the checkout.session.complete event, if we find it as a "special 50€ one" we upgrade the price to the default 99€ price

the problem is: in the Checkout paywall there's that blue message telling the user he will pay the special 50€ price in the following renewals, but we would like to tell him the real future renewal price (or disable that message)

I see the issue now

just give me a moment to think about what solutions do we have here

[timber aspen]

rly tnx! 🙂

[visual urchin]

I'm trying to test something to try and replicate for you if this is possible or not

are you still here?

[timber aspen]

yep, sorry i'm in a call 😃

i was not responsive but i'm here, rly sorry 😃

[visual urchin]

I think it's better if you write to https://support.stripe.com/contact/email?topic=api_integration and mention that you've talked to tarzan on discord, this way I would be able to continue working on this async and will get back to you with my findings. would that be ok with you?

[timber aspen]

yep, it is 😃 rly tnx for your help! i'll write you soon 🙂

[visual urchin]

please do let me know when you do

[timber aspen]

ok 😃 will it be of any use if i tell you (in my email) some plan/price/coupon IDs so you can check for "configuration" problems?

[visual urchin]

yes please add as many details as you can so it would be easier for me to look into it

[timber aspen]

ok, rly tnx, i'll write you asap 😃
