Here's a step for adding Shipping. There are options for selecting Android and iOS as well: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/quickstart#address-element

this is with subscription

isn't*

[twilit pollen]

Why not accept the Shipping address when you accept payment?

[serene geode]

I quote the shipping value in my backend

and I have my own address form

but I don't know how to add the shipping price

to the users subscription

this is how I doing that

but if the user don't pay the subscription he is creating, it stays active

[twilit pollen]

For context, Subscriptions don't have shipping address on them. Only the Payment Intents and Customers do (both are used with Subscriptions), so if you don't accept it during the payment stage of the process, then you would need to store the address on the Customer object: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/create#create_customer-address

I tried that, but it doesn't work in subscription creation

i don't need to store the shipping address, I need to add the shipping price to my subscription invoice

[twilit pollen]

What you're talking about are Shipping Rates. These don't have an address on them, so I can only assume you're talking about something totally different from what you asked in your original question

Are you following a guide?

[serene geode]

sorry if I was not clear

lets restart

my app has stripe payments for one year

we are developing it native on iOS and using javascript on the backend

but right now we are creating a new subscription

that has shipping

but we quote the shipping price on the checkout and it is different for every user

so I need to add this shipping value to my subscription

this is related to what I need

You have to use either Stripe Checkout or Orders to create/use Shipping Rates: https://stripe.com/docs/api/shipping_rates

The solution in the StackOverflow question you mentioned does not use Shipping Rates. You would need to create a separate Invoice Item that represents your shipping costs if you want to have a quote for your client before they pay

This answer is the correct one if you're not using Orders or Checkout: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27308712/18637382

[serene geode]

i think that for mobile isn't possible to use Order or Checkout

yes, that answer is exactly what I do

but my problem is, I was testing this method

and I was going to to checkout, and it created the subscription and the invoice item, all right

but if I already have a subscription, and didn't finish this flow that created that new invoice item, this invoice item appear on my active subscription

[twilit pollen]

That's expected. If you add an Invoice Item to an active Subscription, but you don't end up charging for it, then you just need to remove the Invoice Item: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoiceitems/delete

[serene geode]

yes, but i can't identify that the user didn't finish the subscription :/

because he can just kill the app

so I don't know when to delete this invoice item

I was wondering if there's a way to create a subscription for the user and it create the invoice as draft, so I could add the invoiceItem for this invoice only

[twilit pollen]

Ahhhh, okay. I understand. So in that case you will want to look into the Upcoming Invoice API. You use this to simulate what their Invoice will be on an active Subscription based on the changes you make to it: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/upcoming

[serene geode]

ok, so that way I need to delete the invoiceItem I created before?

would be so much easy if I could create the item after the subscription creation, so I could related them

[twilit pollen]

With Upcoming Invoices, you don't need to delete anything, since it doesn't change anything on the Subscription

[serene geode]

hahaha

hmmm, so I don't get what to do

ahahahah

[twilit pollen]

So, you said your problem is that your Customer may not approve the new Invoice Item right? So in that case, you need to just create a new Invoice Item to use for the active Subscription, then pass that Invoice Item into the Upcoming Invoice API (https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/upcoming#upcoming_invoice-invoice_items), which will give you information about what will happen to the Subscription if you actually add the Invoice Item to the Subscription "for real".

It's the same as creating a fake Invoice to see what the numbers are. If the Customer chooses to add it to the Subscription, then you add the Invoice Item to the Subscription. If the Customer chooses not to, then you do nothing.

[serene geode]

No no

thats not my problem

I'm a customer, and I subscribe for the Health Insurance for pets, ok?

now I'm navigating in the app, and I saw this new subscription, I go to the checkout, to see the price, quote the shipping, and was ready to purchase

in the backend, I already created a new subscription and the invoiceItem for the shipping

so the user doesn't finish the payment of the new subscription

and it canceled automatically in 2 days

but this invoice Item stays active and appears on my health insurance subscription

I have no idea what the difference is between what you just asked and what you asked before. I would recommend working with our support folks. They can help you in your specified language and hopefully get to the bottom of what's going wrong: https://support.stripe.com/contact

[serene geode]

haah

ok, thanks for trying to understand

my main question was replied, theres no official way to add shipping to subscription, so I need to do some extra codes to support it
