Nah each cycle

They should be sent invoice

So if the subscription is yearly, and I set it as send invoice.. will it only ask them for payment at the end of the year?

Mainly relevant for the first time creating the subscription

[lament cloak]

It'll send them an invoice on the billing_cycle_anchor

Whatever that's set to

Ah I see. OK that makes sense.

So if we have charge automatically, what could we do if they don't have the payment information setup yet?

I saw we can have allow incomplete etc.

Yep you'd do that basically

Well depends on the behavior you want

[solid willow]

I think we would want to collect the payment eventually.. but mainly whenever wait until the payment information is set

The scenario is that we have a customer who might not have the payment information set yet.

We want to create the subscription and then have it attempt to collect the payment.

This would fail at first because they don't have the payment information, but maybe it won't fail once the payment information is set for the customer

Yeah that's true

Recommend taking a look at the different payment behaviors: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-payment_behavior

Those are your options really
