#

One of the best ways to approach this is to collect the Payment Method first via SetupIntents: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse

#

Then, you can create a Subscription with the saved Payment Method, off-session.

#

But I understand your concern about calculating the total amount.

Yes

Actually, if the customer doesn't end up paying it withing a few days, it will be cancelled automatically.

You can follow this guide: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements

#

Customer can choose different products and different quantities. Apply discounts. And do a lot of calculations before purchasing. I wouldn’t want to create a subscription for every calculation.

#

Is it possible to see the total amount without creating a subscription?

#

using stripe api

There's a feature to preview invoices with different parameters, maybe it could be useful: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/upcoming
