Are these fields specific to each Customer? Or would setting fields at the account level work for your use case?
idle coyote
Ideally this would be per subscription but per customer should be ok for our use case.
On the account level it's likely not possible as the legal text that the legal team wants includes the name of the product (and we have several product). But if this is ready to be used I may be able to convince them to have a generic word representing the subscription

It looks like this parameter may be exactly what you need https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-invoice_creation-invoice_data-custom_fields
idle coyote
Isn't this for payment mode sessions only? So not subscriptions?
white crystal
That should set those custom fields on at least the first invoice, I'd recommend testing in test mode to check beyond that
My apologies, I think you are right, can test that in test mode
One thing that would work here is creating a Customer object beforehand, setting these custom field settings on that customer and then passing in that customer's ID to the Checkout Session when creating it
idle coyote
Yeah not very robust as if the customer doesn't complete the checkout session he still have those settings (and you would have to add webhooks and so on to prevent this, lots of points of possible "failure")
But let's try with this for the moment, thanks
Can this be considered a feature request ? Most straightforward way to describe the feature looks like : invoice_settings field (custom_fields/footer) on checkout session creation with mode=subscription
white crystal
Yes, definitely going to put in feedback for this. Let me us know if you run in to any further questions while implimenting this
