You can define an ad hoc price with the price_data hash when creating your subscription item https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoiceitems/create#create_invoiceitem-price_data

So you would need a pre-defined product but could specify a custom one-off price for the invoice item on the fly

Thank you for your reply, I'm confused as the documentation says that the price field is required

[crisp kite]

Would you mind linking to that doc?

That doc shows price as optional but price_data.product as being required if you are using the price_data hash

Actually it looks like both are optional. I think you can just set an amount, currency, and description on the invoice items themselves

[vernal sentinel]

Ok so just to clarify the price does need to be created in stripe and the price sent in the api call?

[crisp kite]

No, I think you can create an item without a price

We list both ways to pass one in as being optional
