hello! yes that's possible with subscription schedules : https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules
you can set it such that your Subscription ends after X months by setting x iterations

Chiecking this out now. Thank you!
When its set to this, does it automatically just collect the payment every 30 days from when the initial payment is made, or will it always charge on this day for every customer
rugged pewter
it'll always charge on that day.

Ok, so just to clarify, the subscription is not something I can save in my catalogue like my products?
To use this, I have to create the product and set to monthly billing. Then after the customer purchases the product using the payment link to that product, I then set it using this featrure to recurr the specified number of times?
rugged pewter
how are you currently integrating with Stripe to collect payment - Are you using Checkout Sessions or Payment Element or...?
it sounds like you're using Payment Links?
high bridge
Not really sure the differene between those. But I've been creating products and then using the payment link to that product via email to collect payment.
rugged pewter
ah, i'm a bit confused by what you mean by save in my catalogue like my products - i'm guessing you mean have a setting that always automatically ends the subscription after x months?
high bridge
Yes
rugged pewter
unfortunately, we don't have any such feature at the moment, you can implement the code to always do this for you automatically, or edit the subscription via the Dashboard
high bridge
How would I go about that?
rugged pewter
which are you referring to - implement the code or edit the subscription on the Dashboard?
high bridge
Both actually. Or whichever one is easier
rugged pewter
are you a developer?
high bridge
Not really
rugged pewter
then you would need to do it via the Dashboard. When you update the Subscription in the Dashboard, you can choose when it ends
high bridge
Awesome. THank you!

in case you haven't seen this yet, you can use test clocks to mimic the passing of time : https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks to test stuff and make sure it all works as expected
