Hello
last quail
this is a good start for your integration flow https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions
for the pricing part you can refer to this https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/usage-based/pricing-models#fixed-fee-and-overage-model
to setup usage billing https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/usage-based/implementation-guide
and recording usage https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/usage-based/recording-usage
onyx sorrel
can we also add free trail for usage based pricing?
last quail
when you say free trial do you mean unpaid period? or the 1000 token usage?
onyx sorrel
yes. but only for the first time
last quail
hmmm so the next month they won't get the free 1000 right?
onyx sorrel
yes
last quail
in that case you can create 2 prices
1 price with the overage model (first 1000 free)
and another one without that
and you just create a subscription schedule where you say the first iteration has the first price and the from there on out you use the second price
onyx sorrel
any documentation link for the same?
last quail
1st step you create the subscription normally
next you create a subscription schedule from the subscription https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules#managing:~:text=You can also create subscription schedules by passing a subscription ID%3A
and then you use https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#upgrading-subscriptions to upgrade the schedule
the only difference I would do to the last code snippet is that I would assign 1 iteration for each phase
