"on each payment" -> do you mean an one-time fee during subscription creation? or a recurring fee in each renewal?

#

Each month I have to charge product cost + shipping

#

And is the shipping a fixed price? or variable ?

#

Fixed

Then you can just include the shipping fee as one of the items (https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-items) when creating a subscription.

Can I include a shipping rate on that list?

#

No

#

So I have to create new items just to charge shipping?

#

If the shipping cost were dynamic what'd be the right way?

#

Yes you can just a item for fixed shipping.

If the shipping cost is variable, you don't include it when creating a subscription, instead, you should listen to invoice.created and create an invoice item for the amount that you want to charge for shipping.

But that way wouldn't they have to pay twice?
