sorry the usecase is still not clear
Can you use a real example so that I can be on the same page?
charred hill
for example product price is $5
if i created sub, i will be charged $5
how i can override this price to $4 for example?

Hi 👋 I would recommend taking a look at using items.price_data when creating your Subscriptions. It allows you to create Prices in an adhoc fashion, so you can provide the right amount each time:

it that will allow me to charge $4 and not $5 for that first invoice?
icy sparrow
Wait, you only want to charge a different price for a single Invoice? (That's not what I got from your original question, I thought the whole Subscription would be for a different amount)
charred hill
the original price of subscription is $5
-i want when user buy for the first time (first invoice) should charge him custom amount not $5
how to do this without coupon?
renew will be $5 ofc
?
there is a way:
by creating a trial and Include a one-time charge
but i don't want trial!
any other ways?

It's going to pretty cumbersome to do that without using a coupon. You'll need to create a Subscription Schedule, with multiple phases.
https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscription_schedules
Subscription Schedules can drive future changes for an underlying Subsription. So you'd use one phase to charge your custom discounted amount via price_data, then have the next phase begin using the regular amount.
