If you're offering subcsriptions then we do offer the ability to automatically check if an email already has an active subscription (see https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/limit-subscriptions). If that doesn't fit your needs then your best option is to add this validation logic on your end where you're checking your own databases or querying Stripe to see if this customer/email already has a subscription before redirecting to checkout

Thanks! I actually did read that. Though it wasn't clear if you are limited by email address or customerId

If the limit is by customerId, that likely won't help. Since we don't have the customerId during the checkout session, we are worried it will just create a new customerId and continue.

It should also be limited by email address

[red heath]

interesting

We can do some testing on our end to verify. How sure are you about it being email address? ha

I'm pretty certain - just tested it on my own account with a Checkout Session created w/ customer_email and I see it working

[red heath]

you are the best. thanks!~
