What you're describing is a more complex billing integration not possible with Checkout, and solved by a Subscription Schedule: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#downgrading-subscriptions
You can schedule the change at a specific timestamp or after X number of iterations
In your example, you'd have a phase for the price/item to start and immediately, then an additional phase to start on X for the additional item(s)

So the only way to make this possible without to much changing of existing implementation would be starting a subscription via stripe checkout SDK with the one-time buy product. After initial purchace + Webhook to create an additional subscription via Stripe SDK for the monthly subscription with a future start date? Is that correct?

Well you can't start a subscription with a non-recurring item. So if the initial 'payment' is one-time, then there'd be no associated subscription
But yes, otherwise what you describe is correct
You'd have the one-time fee via Checkout, then create the Subscription for the recurring item async with a future start date

Ok, thanks you.
