Hi!
lusty wigeon
So one hour is when the invoice finalizes. Try adding a few more minutes on top of that
or another hour
lusty wigeon
Current period end + 1 hour (invoice finalization) => this finalizes the invoice and is ready for payment
lusty wigeon
Yup that should work
fair linden
I expect a webhook request whose billing_reason to be subscription_cycle. Am I correct?
lusty wigeon
Yep
fair linden
Also, how do I simulate the success/failure?
lusty wigeon
For invoice.paid event, correct?
lusty wigeon
Gotcha. For failed payments, you'd need to use the relevant test payment method
https://docs.stripe.com/testing
lusty wigeon
NP! 🙂 Happy to help
fair linden
But if I use declined payments, how will the initial payment go through?
Or the request is exactly the same - just a different billing_reason ?
lusty wigeon
One option is to update the payment method directly using the API
I dont' know if dashboard allows you to update the payment method on the customer
or subscription
fair linden
I dont think so
is it reasonable to assume that a failed subscription is the same as a failed initial payment, just with different billing_reason ?
lusty wigeon
The object structure won't be any different so I want to say yes, but also would recommend just testing it out to be 100% sure
fair linden
Can you please let me know how to test such a case?
lusty wigeon
actually the dashboard should let you change the payment method by updating the subscription
You can use this payment method: https://docs.stripe.com/testing#:~:text=the next one.-,DESCRIPTION,-NUMBER
Decline after attaching: 4000000000000341
Attaching this card to a Customer object succeeds, but attempts to charge the customer fail.
lusty wigeon
Try the payment method I shared above
fair linden
Indeed, 4000000000000341 seems to work
for the successful renew I can just use the 4242 one, right?
lusty wigeon
yup
fair linden
Alright, just done that
Thanks a lot!
I'll be waiting for the requests
Thanks for your time!
lusty wigeon
Happy to help 🙂
