hello
my case is
we are using payment intents to sell bundles
bundle include the product itself + subscription
due to how our system works, we are creating subscription some weeks after bundle is purchased
now, we want to improve our MRR calculations
i have tried already different approaches, and not any seems works
i need the next flow
payment intent completed, total price = 100$
transfer part of this payment to a product (subscription)
is that possible at any way?

Hmm, not directly. What you want to do instead is probably apply credit to the customer balance which can be used against subscription/invoice payments: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/customer/balance
tame bane
Then you can't apply a payment to a subscription, no
I don't know what you mean by 'affect the MRR'
brave ravine
mean,
i have received payment intent (success)
i'll add 20$ to user accounts, and at the same moment, i'll create a subscription for him.
will i see the proper amount in there?
tame bane
I'm not sure, you should test it
Yes there'd be an active subscription so I'd imagine it'd count as MRR yes
brave ravine
do you have any other ideas about how to increase the mrr without charging the customer by 2 different invoices?
tame bane
Did you try the approach I just recommended?
Another alternative would be to apply a discount for the initial subscription for the amount of the initial payment
brave ravine
ok, i'll try both cases
