@frozen needle by default no. But you can ask our support team https://support.stripe.com/contact and they can give you access to a custom feature that allows this. It requires approval for your account/business moel so best option is to reach out to them

Possible to support it for everyone?, heaps of big shots are doing 2 year cycle like
- NordVPN (VPN) - They're vibing with a 2-year VPN plan
- CyberGhost VPN (VPN) - 2-year VPN? Hell yeah.
- Bluehost (Web Hosting) - Rolling out a 2-year web hosting plan
- Namecheap (Domains) - Locked in for a 2-year domain plan
- SiteGround (Web Hosting) - 2-year web hosting? You bet.
- Norton (Security) - They're securing folks for 2 years straight
- HostGator (Hosting) - Hosting the world for 2 years at a time
- OVHCloud (Server Hosting) - 2-year server hosting? Absolutely.
- Private Internet Access (VPN) - A 2-year VPN extravaganza
- Xbox (Gaming) - Gamers enjoying a 2-year plan
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. All these cool companies are doing it, so why can't we? 🤷

I see, happy it is in place now. I work with a reputable company so I think I can get the approval. Just curious, why wasn't this info about seeking approval mentioned somewhere in Stripe before?

it's on a long list of feature requests I wish we had
fun fact: one engineer on my team is literally working on making this available by default for all Stripe accounts. We hope it'll ship this week. But I don't want to make any promises because software engineering is tough 😂

Hahah, that's amazing! If this gets rolled out for all Stripe accounts, it'll surely boost sales. Two-year subscriptions mean a higher price point, and that's a win-win! 😄

yep yep but also higher dispute risk
