Hi
How can I help?
blissful olive
Are you from Stripe dev?
gleaming crystal
Yes
blissful olive
Can you please tell me when we use subscription api for Stripe, when it will charge from the card?
gleaming crystal
It depends on the billing cycle for the subscription, can you elaborate on what information you're exactly looking for?
blissful olive
Actually I want that when a user subsubscribe, the payment should be deducted from his card immediately
how can I set this billing cycle?
can you please help?
hello
gleaming crystal
Is this a new subscription you're creating?
please be patient, I'm helping few other folks at the same time

You'd want to use Create Subscriptions API endpoint and pass the customer ID (assuming you already have the payment method stored), product they're subscribing to and so on..

You'd also want collection_method set to charge_automatically

Actually I need to set the billing cycle from the admin panel of STRIPE account, and my billering cycle should be like, first payment IMMEDIATELY and second payment after one month, third payment next month and so on
gleaming crystal
when you say admin panel, are you referring to Stripe Dashboard? If so, you'd can create a subscription using the dashboard

thanks, is there a possibility that if I have 10 users and they subscribe to stripe on different date, and first payment I want from them on their respective different dates?
for example User1 subscribed on 1st August 2023, his payment should be charged immediately on 1st August 2023 and if
User2 subscribed on 5th August 2023, his payment should be charged immediately on 5th August 2023
gleaming crystal
Subscriptions created on different dates will be billed on different days
blissful olive
I have one subscription for all these 10 users actually
gleaming crystal
Huh.. I don't really understand the usecase here 😅
One subscription can't have different intervals
blissful olive
thanks a lot
gleaming crystal
👍
