Let me help you with this!
Yes, something like this is possible, but in mode: "subscription".
You can just pass one-time Prices along with recurring Prices into line_items.

May I have some references

This is a basic guide on how to build a Stripe Checkout Subscription integration: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=stripe-hosted
About the recurring + one-time Prices there's just what's in this property description: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items
reef heron
So what I understand is that- the mode of the checkout session will be subscription, in line items array, we will pass both one time price and recurring price, the one time price inside line_items.price_data.product_data and the recurring one inside line_items.price_data.recurring
Am I on the track?
undone forge
Pretty much.
price_data and product_data are used if you need to create a Price/Product on the fly/dynamically.
Instead, usually, you would want to create the Prices and Products via the Dashboard, and then just use the Price ID in the line_items.price field: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price
reef heron
Actually me platform requirement is such that I need to create Price/Product on the fly/dynamically.
undone forge
Then sure, you can use the price_data. Here you can still choose to use an existing Product (which is just a name, description, image), or create it dynamically too with product_data. Depending on your needs.

My 2nd concern is that, platform takes 7% cut on one time price and 1% on recurring price, is this possible?
undone forge
Unfortunately the application_fee_percent is set per whole Subscription: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-subscription_data-application_fee_percent
You could set it to 7% first, and after the first Invoice is paid update the Subscription directly to set application_fee_percent: 1: https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/update#update_subscription-application_fee_percent

reef heron
So in the very first invoice, platform takes total 8%, after the first invoice, we update the application_fee_percent to 1% and platform takes 1% on every invoice there after? Am I on the right track?
slender ether
The initial fee would be whatever application_fee_percent you set on creation, yes. Be that 8 or 7
If you then update the Subscription after creation, subsequent invoices/payments would have the updated %
reef heron
Let me check this and get back to you
reef heron
Can I create Price/Product on the fly/dynamically in subscription object?
This is not related to the previous question
slender ether
Can I create Price/Product on the fly/dynamically in subscription object?
Yes, using the price_data parameter:
reef heron
But I think items.price_data.product requires The ID of the product that this price will belong to, but I want to create a new Price which is not related to any product, is this possible?
slender ether
No, but you can create the Product inline too via product_data and omit product: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data-product_data
reef heron
Let me clarify it again, using subscription object
slender ether
You're using Checkout, right?
reef heron
Nope, was using Checkout in previous query, currently using Subscription object
reef heron
This is not related to the previous question
so is this possible using Subscription object?
slender ether
Oh, then no. You can't create a Product inline on the Subscriptions API (there's no product_data parameter)

Hello, is there any way to collect payment method used in Checkout Session with mode : "payment" and use it for future subscriptions?
lilac citrus
👋 taking over for my colleague.
you can use that parameter
to setup future usage with the collected PM
reef heron
So after i collect the payment method, I can use it with Subscription object?
reef heron
coz I don't want two transactions, that in turn will result in charging of two time stripe fees i.e. (2.9% + 30c) * 2
lilac citrus
you can create them at the same time
you can create a Checkout session with both a subscription and one-off payments
reef heron
but the platform takes 7% cut on one time price and 1% on recurring price
lilac citrus
you can use separate charges and transfers in this case
so basically the platform creates the Checkout Session and once it's complete the Platform calculates it's cut and then transfer the rest of the amount to the Connect Account
reef heron
So I need a checkout session in which end customers pay $100, then using charged.succeeded webhook event, I collect the payment method, then using checkout.sessions.completed webhook event, I create a subscription, but I am getting this error-Error updating payment status: StripeInvalidRequestError: This customer has no attached payment source or default payment method. Please consider adding a default payment method
Although I am attaching the collected payment_method while creating subscription-
const monthlySubscription = await stripeInstance.subscriptions.create(
{
customer: realtor.stripe_customer_id_under_broker,
items: [{
price: "price_1OpTihRaGU4hbiXLf4FnHLpb",
}],
application_fee_percent: 1,
metadata: {
"fee_type": "subdomain_fee"
},
default_payment_method: payment_method
},
{
stripeAccount: broker.stripe_account_id,
}
);
Are we connected?

- I need a checkout session in which end customers pay $100 - this is a one time payment
- then using charged.succeeded webhook event, I collect the payment method of that customer
- then using checkout.sessions.completed webhook event, I create a subscription with collected payment method as default_payment_method - here is the code snippet-
const monthlySubscription = await stripeInstance.subscriptions.create(
{
customer: realtor.stripe_customer_id_under_broker,
items: [{
price: "price_1OpTihRaGU4hbiXLf4FnHLpb",
}],
application_fee_percent: 1,
metadata: {
"fee_type": "subdomain_fee"
},
default_payment_method: payment_method
},
{
stripeAccount: broker.stripe_account_id,
}
);
But still getting this error-Error updating payment status: StripeInvalidRequestError: This customer has no attached payment source or default payment method. Please consider adding a default payment method

Can you share the ID (req_xxx) of the API request? https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
reef heron

slender ether
That's not the ID of the API request that errors
slender ether
Again, I need a req_xxx ID. See the link above for where you can find them
