Hello! When you create a Subscription you can set the billing_cycle_anchor (https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-billing_cycle_anchor), which accepts a UTC timestamp. We'll use that time to calculate when the next renewal should be.

As an example - if you set the anchor to Dec 1st for a monthly subscription, it'll renew on Jan 1st next month

Thank you Karbi! Do you know if there is a way to automatically set this to a product? I want all my future subscriptions to be billed on either the 1st or the 14th of the month to keep track...

No, there's no way to tie it to product - it's somethign that you have to set for each Subscription

I see. Thank you. Follow up question... I want to now change my pre-existing subscription clients to be billed on the 1st or 14th and i understand i can do this with trials.. If i set the trial to end on the 1st of December, will they be billed on the same day? or on the next day?
