Hello
Your Price is a multicurrency Price
So it is localizing based on your location
I assume you are in the US, so it is localizing to USD
Ah sorry I see what you are saying
This is server-side on creation
worldly brook
I was using the vpn to move my location to UK, then when I was issuing subscription currency was properly detected to GBP (producs default is USD but supports GBP)
thick bluff
I assume USD is set as the default on the Price though, one sec.
Yep USD is the default
worldly brook
soo is it then configuration issue?
thick bluff
No it is fine, your top level Subscription response shows currency: 'gbp'
worldly brook
to return same currency as one on which subscripition was issued?
thick bluff
Really all of this is handled by us automatically based on geolocation
You are doing the correct thing here
If you want to create a Subscription for a UK customer
You can see the initial Invoice was generated in GBP
So that Subscription is locked into GBP now
worldly brook
so when getting subscription I should get GBP?
because now stripe.subscriptionItems.retrieve returns me currency: usd
thick bluff
If you are concerned about the actual currency of the Sub then you should look top level
Not at the subscriptionItem
worldly brook
so my goal is to retrieve subscriptionItem with the currency on which the transaction was made. Any hint how to do that? I don't get what top level is :/
thick bluff
You retreive the Subscription itself using https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/retrieve, not the Subscription Item
Then you can either expand the latest_invoice to see the actual data about the most recent invoice
Or you can look at the currency on the Subscription (which is what I mean by top level): https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/object#subscription_object-currency
You don't want to look at the Subscription Item as the Price itself will just show you data about the default currency/amount.

ah! got it now! thanks!!
