hello! Do you mean allow customers to upgrade their own Subscriptions? Or this is a price increase by your business for the Subscription?
ancient hound
Hi Alex, this is a price increase by the business for the subscribers.
vital plover
there's no other way about it unfortunately other than to write your own code to loop through and make those changes
ancient hound
I see, so Stripe doesn't have a way to facilitate that type of change it sounds like.
I was hoping that Subscription Schedules might be the way businesses do this. Perhaps looping through all the subscriptions that need to change and creating a Subscription Scheduule for them to change to the new price at the end of the billing cycle is the common pattern people using Stripe would take?
I imagine price changes over time for Subscriptions is a common use case, so I'm wondering what the most common practices around executing that would be.
vital plover
ah yeah, you can use Subscription Schedules to do so, but you would still need to implement your own code to create a new Subscription Schedule for each of the Subscriptions you want to update which is what I meant
there's no one click solution here via the Dashboard that allows you to upgrade all the Subscription Prices sadly 😅
In case you haven't seen this yet, you can use test clocks to mimic the passing of time : https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks

Ok, thanks for confirming this, Alex.
Do you happen to know if such functionality is on Stripe's roadmap? 😄
vital plover
It's feedback that we've received from other users before but we can't really give any timelines or guarantee that we will implement it
ancient hound
Ok, thanks again.
