Hi 👋

When you say "first amount more expensive" do you mean there is an additional charge when a customer first subscribes?

#

Hmmmm... we have a parameter when creating a Subscription called add_invoice_items . This lets you add one-off charges to the next invoice generated by that subscription: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-add_invoice_items. But I'm not seeing that option for Checkout Sessions

#

Wait

#

I think I recall how to do this, let me test

great many thanks

Okay so the way you do this is by combining your recurring price in the line_items for the Checkout Session with a separate price that preresnts the one-off charge.

#

Here is an example of how that will look in the Checkout payment page

#

You can see it clearly displays the one-off charge as something that will be paid now and then the lower price will be billed monthly

This means that my supplement must not appear in the "line_items" ?

shadow wren Jun 2, 2023, 4:15 PM

#

what do you mean by "my supplement"?
Anything you wish to bill the customer for must be in the line_items

reef jay Jun 2, 2023, 4:16 PM

#

supplement is the additionnal charge for the first payment

#

sorry for the wrong word

#

i'll try this evening with your solution

#

Many thanks
