You do not need to write again, you can continue asking in the previous open thread you have with us
Can you confirm if you're asking how you'd create a free one cycle subscription and a free subscription for life? Or something else?
modest seal
Yes, but I am mainly asking how one of our customers can gift a subscription to someone else who is not a Stripe customer
wind vapor
Ah, you can leverage coupons, https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/coupons for this. If not, you'd need to track this on your end and when you create the subscription from these gifts, you'd need to pass in the trials, https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/trials
modest seal
Yeah that is what we are doing, however when I tried to created the subscription to be free forever I got this error :
The maximum number of trial period days is 730 (2 years).
Have I any alternative?
wind vapor
You could create a 100% coupon and apply it to the subscription
modest seal
But I have to add the trial_end when I create the subscription , isn't it?
wind vapor
No, you can create a subscription without a trial, and apply your 100% off coupon, https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/coupons
modest seal
I see, so If I add a forever coupon to a subscription it will never require payment?
wind vapor
That is correct
modest seal
And If I add and coupon with a duration equal to ONCE it will start to ask for payment after the first payment cycle?
wind vapor
That is right
modest seal
Yeah, I did the test and this is the portal . It says renews at November but I guess it renews at 0.0 dollars .
