Hi, there are a couple of ways of doing this if you do not want to use free trials. I think that using free trials is still better here.
1/ You can use coupons, https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/coupons to offer a discount on the first month.
2/ You can use Subscirption Schedules, https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules to offer one price for one month, then another pricing for the subsequent months.
Let me know if you have any specific questions on these.

Thank you! I think I am going to use subscription schedules to offer one price at the beginning, and another pricing for subsequent renewals.
You mentioned free trials, but I thought it was not possible to charge an arbitrary amount during the trial_days_period. 🤔

I was thinking you would offer the free trial, and add a one time invoice item, https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoiceitems/create as you suggested on your initial ask.
That is what I was referring to

Clear, thank you. But that would charge the intro price together with the subscription price after the end of the trial_period_days right?
