Hello! What's your question?

#

hello

#

can I pass a subscription schedule to an invoice page?

#

or to a checkout session?

#

I want the customer to take action to subscribe to the payment plan

#

No, there's no way to use Subscription Schedules with Checkout Sessions currently

#

You'd have to create the Subscription first through Checkout and then convert it to a subscription schedule afterwards

#

How can a subscription be converted?

#

Seems a bit convoluted I already have a payment plan implementation using max_ocurrences. I wanted to 'upgrade' but seems more complicated

#

For adding a schedule to an existing subscripton you'll want to look at https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#existing-subscription

#

I'm not fully sure what you mean when you talk about max_occurences - if you show me an example of the Subscription schedule you want to create I can look

#

Yeah max_ocurrences is a parameter that it is undocumented by stripe, you probably don't know it.

#

it's old school

#

gotcha

#

the problem with updating subscriptions, is that it is not friendly for customers

#

As a business, you cannot just have the customer subscribe to a subscription that is not explicitly saying the number of installments that they will be paying

#

yeah if that's something you absolutely need you're going to need your own payment page to support it (since Checkout doesn't have that)
