Hello 👋
If you create a subscription with quantity 10 then you'd likely be charged for the same quantity on renewal
You'd need to update the subscription to reduce quantity

[dusty cradle]

and to update the subscription woudl I need to get the user details again and call inthe update subscription APIs ?

👋 I'm stepping in for my teammate

Thanks

I would appreciate some guidance on this topic as I am fairly new to stripe.

You'd need the subscription ID, which you probably store in a database somewhere

I recommend reading through this guide: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/upgrade-downgrade#changing

I also recommend testing this out in test mode so you're clear on what the customer experience will be. I recommend using test clocks for that: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks

Thank you!! Also I would highly appreciate if you could recommend some articles on how to design payment gateways related architecture.

[pulsar cedar]

Can you elaborate on that? What kind of information are you looking for exactly?

[dusty cradle]

Yes sure, So I would like to learn how I can put together stripe or maybe any other payment gateways in big projects where I have many types of checkouts and stuff.

I can explain in a bit more depth if you'd like.

[dusty cradle]

I figured since you're well versed with payments with stripe you might know about a book, a programming channel or maybe articles which might help me in learning about setting up payment gateways the right way for big projects.

I don't have any recommendations that are not for Stripe-specific integrations

I know lots of developers ask questions about payments (and other payment processors, not just Stripe) in Stack Overflow

Still helpful to know I am not the only one.
