👋 happy to help

you can use subscription schedules https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#start-subscription-future

[hexed bolt]

thanks for the quick response. As far as i know it will also schedule the payment in the future.

Unless there is a param that needs to be checked?

[oblique drift]

yes you're right 😦

sorry I missed that

give me a second I have a couple of options in mind, I would like to see what best suits your need

[hexed bolt]

No problem 😄

The only thing that I could think of would be to bill the customer, add that to their balance and then use that balance when creating a subscription. But I would rather like to avoid that.

[oblique drift]

yes that's one approach

the balance would be used automatically

there's a private beta for prebilling, but you need to contact https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true to see if you're eligible

[hexed bolt]

Thanks, you guys come up with cool things every week. I'll definitely check it out. Do I just message them about it or are there any special steps to follow?

Also do you know, by any chance, the ETA on prebilling?

[oblique drift]

yes please contact them they will be able to help you out on this

[hexed bolt]

Of course, thanks for the help. Have a good one.
