Pricing table doesn't support what you describe currently. You'd need to just have a pricing option at $289 and then downgrade/amend the create Subscription after creation for the next billing period

#

Oh I see

#

but would this but possible to setup this downgrade from Stripe or would I need to do an API Call?

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 9:53 AM

#

You could do it via the Dashboard sure, or via the API

brittle musk Feb 28, 2023, 9:53 AM

#

Any idea where I'm supposed to go on the dashboard?

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 9:54 AM

#

https://dashboard.stripe.com/subscriptions

do you mean I can setup an "automatically scheduled downgrade" for each new subscription" from this link?

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 10:00 AM

#

You can schedule the update to happen in the Dashboard, yep

brittle musk Feb 28, 2023, 10:01 AM

#

you mean here?

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 10:02 AM

#

Any subscriptions created via the pricing table would be under the Current tab. You can then update one, and schedule the update in the UI (which will create a schedule under the hood)

brittle musk Feb 28, 2023, 10:02 AM

#

I mean, I want it to be done automatically. The website admin should not have to come back to Stripe to set these up.
It needs to be done automatically, like some kind of trigger

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 10:02 AM

#

Then you'll need to use the API: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#downgrading-subscriptions

Subscription schedules use cases

Learn how to use subscription schedules.

#

I guess you could listen for checkout.session.completed events (i.e a customer subscribes via the pricing table) and then create the associated schedule for the downgrade as you need

brittle musk Feb 28, 2023, 10:04 AM

#

seems to be the best solution 🙂

#

I've already got a webhook for this event. 😉

#

I just need to add an API Call

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 10:06 AM

#

Perfect, let me know if I can help. You'll need to pass the sub_xxx from the session when creating the schedule: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscription_schedules/create#create_subscription_schedule-from_subscription

#

if the user cancels their subscription before the end of the current subscription, the scheduled subscription will be canceled too, I imagine?

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 10:08 AM

#

Well you'd cancel the schedule at that point. That'd also cancel the actual subscription

brittle musk Feb 28, 2023, 10:10 AM

#

ok. Thank you very much ynnoj for your help 🙂

haughty ruin Feb 28, 2023, 10:11 AM

#

you're welcome

brittle musk Feb 28, 2023, 10:11 AM

#

I'm gonna setup this API call now. I might need your help again. Hopefully it'll be fine 😉 thanks again
