So just to better explain, I have a subcription for users to sign up for, this is a metered item because its based on how many active users are in the system. I want to charge the customers initially as some users come off a trial period and have active users when they first sign up. So far I have added a flatrate product that calculates based on the number of active users, it just feels like there would be a better way or maybe a way to make the metered product do this when someone signs up.

What errors are you facing? Can you share the request ID (req_xxx)? Here’s how you can find it: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
dense grail
No errors per say, I am able to create the subscription with a second product (the flatrate) and charge the users for it in the same transaction. I was just wondering if there was a way to charge the users initially using a metered product or if the charge is only ever after the first cycle?
haughty harbor
Metered products will only be charged at the end of the cycle. The usage will be submitted during the cycle, and Stripe will only be able to calculate the total amount after the cycle ends
dense grail
Ah okay, so it would be best to just add the two products together if I need to charge the first month in advance.
haughty harbor
Yes, that's right

No problem! Happy to help 😄

Any of you guy have problem with webhook processing with stripe cli simulator's signing secret code?
event = stripe.webhooks.constructEvent(
JSON.stringify(req.body),
sig,
webhook_secret
);
it is always failing to me with the signing secret
