Hi 👋 yes, you can create a Subscription without a Payment Method, are you encountering an error when you try to do so?

Are you setting the Subscription to charge automatically?

#

If so, then a Payment Method is required when creating a Subscription via the dashboard (I believe, we focus more on the API side of these flows and are not as familiar with the Stripe dashboard).

#

yes i've tried in the dashboard first , but i need this on the API side

#

if i remove Subscription to charge automatically , the email with the invoice will send to the customer?

You have more control when working with the API. In addition to being able to specify your desired collection_method (which controls whether Invoices are emailed to your customers or if payments are automatically attempted for them), you can also set the payment_behavior which gives you more flexibility regarding how the Subscription creation request will behave:
