I want to provide a $50 coupon on a user's first PAID subscription.
The coupon would be set to be "eligible for first time orders" and could only be redeemed once by each customer.
Customers on board with us by taking out a $200 subscription with a 14 day free trial. They don't have to provide their credit card details upfront. An initial invoice is raised for $0. At the end of the 14 day trial if the user has not submitted a payment method before the end of the trial period the subscription gets automatically cancelled.
If the customer returns at a later date and purchases a new PAID subscription will they be able apply the Coupon to the new subscription? Or would the "eligible for first time orders" setting preclude them from using it.
We use Stripe Checkout.

Is this coupon expected to be a recurring discount, i.e. $50 every month on the invoice, or just $50 for the first non-zero invoice?
copper timber
$50 for the first non zero invoice. No recurring
glacial tapir
Yes, the $50 will be applied to the first non-zero invoice
I'd recommend giving a try in test mode with test clock: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/testing/test-clocks
