Hello, the one way that immediately comes to mind is that you may be able to unrequest their payment capabilities. https://stripe.com/docs/api/accounts/update#update_account-capabilities-card_payments

Stripe API reference – Update an account – curl

Complete reference documentation for the Stripe API. Includes code snippets and examples for our Python, Java, PHP, Node.js, Go, Ruby, and .NET libraries.

#

Otherwise you may have to loop through their list of active subscriptions and cancel them via the API https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/cancel

Stripe API reference – Cancel a subscription – curl

I would assume that closing an account would stop the subscriptions but have not been able to find a doc or test this. Have you closed an account in test mode to test this?

Right, I'll have a look at these. I would assume that when closing an account you'd lose access immediately and future payments would be stopped as all data would be deleted... But I'll give it a go with a test account, good idea.

@faint bridge I just tested on some of my own test accounts. Unrequesting the capabilities does not cancel active subscriptions as far as I can tell. Deleting the account does cancel subscriptions but if you want to keep the transaction history I don't think you want to do that. I think cycling through and deleting each subscription would be the way to do it unforutnately
