Let's start over
Just pasting the original question here
Same question as bismarck:
Is the customer paying all at once here?
Or is this like an installments type thing?

Can you give an example just so I understand correctly

But a customer may come to the page and their may only be 3 sessions left ect or just want to go to one
Its for a 4 weeks every sunday their is a football session that costs £9 if you book for all 4 its £9 each so total £36. If you come and there is only 3 weeks left you pay for £27
If you only want one session however you have to pay £11
Thats the kinda gist of it.

Got it that makes sense. If they just want 1 session, then you could create the checkout session in "payment" mode (ie a one time payment): https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-mode. Just set the amount to $11/week: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data-unit_amount. Otherwise if they will have > 1 session you will need a subscription. So, create the checkout session in "subscription" mode: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-mode with a price of $9/week.
The problem though is since it's a subscription, it will continue to bill every week forever
However, after the customer has checked out, you can update the underlying subscription object to set a cancel_at date: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/update#update_subscription-cancel_at
This way they will only be billed for the dates that you want them to
You'll also want to set proration_behavior to None for that update: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/update#update_subscription-proration_behavior
So that the customer is charged the full $9

Ok sweet thanks for that! But it can't be done in one checkout session?
