You can specify coupons to only be valid for certain prices. Though I am not 100% clear on your usecase

#

So basically you are directing users to a checkout session with a monthly and yearly option, and there is one coupon that could apply to either now?

@pine lodge I have a checkout session with a coupon applied for 100% off once, but there is an upsell option to allow them to purchase a year subscription.

#

And this applies the coupon

Unfortunately it looks like we only allow you to specify at the product level instead of prices. Would it make sense to maybe make a coupon for a certain amount instead? That could mean that the user gets their first month for free or if they sign up for yearly they get the yearly price - the price of one month of your subscription

#

Possibly yes, would be a pain as I have the coupon on multiple products

#

What happens if the fixed amount is greater than the product price?

#

Nothing gets refunded I hope? 😅

#

I think they just have a $0 payment but will double check

#

One other option is that instead of upsells, you could just create a checkout subscription for only one price or the other and disallow discount codes on the sessions for the yearly subscriptions

I do very much like stripe handling the upsell though

#

I am putting in feedback to allow the specification of certain prices by the way. Can't guaruntee it will get added but that would be a helpful feature

#

Yeah that is nice, unfortunate that it looks like coupons don't play nice with this usecase with upsells

#

Can I put in a feature request?

Essentially a checkbox on coupons that disallows them to be used with the upselling feature

#

Or something similar, you guys are smarter than me

To do that you can write in to our support. I think the initial idea of restricting based on prices might make more sense here. If it is just upsells then there could conceivably be a case where you make a checkout session for just the yearly price and the user would still be able to apply 100% off there https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true

I missed that message! I apologize

#

Yes that sounds like a fantastic idea

#

Also just checked and the amount of the initial payment is just reduced to $0, the customer doesn't get credit for any amount over

#

That being said, definitely test this in test mode with your setup to confirm it won't for your configurations. I don't think it will but it is always worth double checking
