We are changing the subscription which had $0 price to a valid price.

modify - https://connect.stripe.com/logs/req_KNRBdFxFe7HIsq
What i understand from earlier investigation is that stripe does an immediate payment in such cases as pointed out by above docs link
I am looking for an option to avoid this, what would best approach to overcome this charge?
pliant wharf
What do you want to do instead? Charge at period end?
buoyant crag
Subscription as created as $0 by mistake by one of our support team, later we wanted to change it to a valid price by applying 100% discount in our platform, as the charges has be already collected in our system. What we are looking for is that in such cases, we need to avoid stripe being charging it and we wanted to have the control.
pliant wharf
I don't quite understand when do you want to charge the customer eventually?
buoyant crag
it has ben charged off line, so we wanted to setup subscription without any charge
pliant wharf
Ok, so you just want to charge them from the next billing cycle?
buoyant crag
yes
pliant wharf
I recommend you to cancel the Subscription, and start a new one with the necessary trial_period_days, so it charges on the same date next time: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-trial_period_days
That's the easiest solution to manage.
buoyant crag
ok, understood.
