Hi, what's your question?

[quick crypt]

Hi there

So, I want to create a subscription, let's say on the 15th

and have it charge on the following months on the 1st

I saw the docs, that this is possible using the billing_cycle_anchor

but, I'm a little confused by the proration_behavior

how can I be sure that the customer will pay the full amonth on the time of the subs creation

and again the full amonth on the 1st of the next month?

Are you wanting the customer to pay for the ~15 days between the 15th of the current month and the 1st of the following month?

[quick crypt]

no, we don't charge by day

we charge by product

so, the first month I want to charge the full amount

[vast torrent]

Right, but which month is the first month in this scenario?

[quick crypt]

lets say today I'm subscribing

and that the subs costs $10 / month

so I should pay 10 now

and next month, I want to be charged on the 1st

the same $10

[vast torrent]

Okay, so in that case you want proration_behavior: 'none'

You pass that when you creat the Subscription to charge the full amount for the month

[quick crypt]

and also the billing_cycle_anchor with 1st of next month?

[vast torrent]

Correct

[quick crypt]

ok! great
