Hi there
Is this related to any Stripe events? i.e. are you trying to update your DB based on something changing on Stripe?

There's any way i can do a subscription manually?
fossil herald
Sorry I don't really follow what you mean by that..
Are you asking if you can build your own subscription engine?
sudden token
Sorry for the confusion. I want to build a verified accounts system, but I don't want it to be a traditional subscription with auto-pay and the need for users to cancel. Instead, I want users to get a verified account for one year, after which they need to pay again to renew it.
fossil herald
You can create a yearly subscription where the collection method is set to sending an invoice rather than saving the payment method and charging it automatically
sudden token
how can i do that?
fossil herald
If you use the subscriptions API then you can set collection_method: send_invoice when you create the subscription

and thats is going to make the subscription "manually"?
fossil herald
There's no "manually" subscription. Like I mentioned above, it will send the invoice instead of charging customer's payment method automatically.
What you're describing doesn't really make sense as a subscription right now..
I don't want it to be a traditional subscription with auto-pay and the need for users to cancel. Instead, I want users to get a verified account for one year, after which they need to pay again to renew it.
In this case, you can just accept a one-time payment and grant verification for a year. After a year, you'd ask customer to pay again (this is something you'd need to handle in your application, not something Stripe can help with)
