To confirm, you want the subscription to run for 3 periods and then stop?

hello, thanks for the reply. I want the subscription to run for 3 months for instance before the user can cancel it, if he doesn't cancel it runs for X months (e.g 12 months)

It doesn't seem to be possible to do it natively via stripe but by creating a product with two pricing plans for example

one pricing plan that starts immediately and stops in 3 months (and isn't cancellable) and one that starts right after this one

am I right ?

Well the easiest way to do that would be just prevent cancelling the subscription as an option in your app in that initial 3 month period

There's no way in Stripe today to prevent cancellation within certain timeframe

You could use a schedule to model the initial 3 period phase, and then have the infinite phase that starts after that: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#upgrading-subscriptions

But you'd still just need to have a mechanism somewhere in your app that prevents users cancelling

[urban kindle]

yeah that's what I will do then, use my backend to prevent cancellation until X months have passed

Thanks a lot for your time

have a great day

No problem, glad I could help!
