I believe you just have to pass payment_behavior: "allow_incomplete"
Can you try that and see if it works with a test subscription?

Unfortunately, that finalizes the invoice immediately, is there anyway to prevent that behavior?
cursive portal
It shouldn't do that if you also pass pay_immediately: 'false'
trim vine
The Stripe API will not allow me to pass pay_immediately false when passing payment_behavior: "allow_incomplete":
Stripe::InvalidRequestError: You cannot set payment_behaviortodefault_incompletewhen passing in the parameterpay_immediately.
cursive portal
That error message indicates that you're passing payment_behavior: 'default_incomplete' instead of payment_behavior: 'allow_incomplete'
trim vine
Oh, I'm sorry. I missed that in your message above, let me give that a try

Stripe::Subscription.create({customer: "cus_Q2UyTwv6lgE7ma", items: [{ price: "price_1Pcs8aJyFlemKh0gSp95T5D6" }], payment_behavior: "allow_incomplete", pay_immediately: "false"})
This does leave the invoice in draft state, but the subscription is already active in this case. That might be something we can code around though.

Are you able to pass pay_immediately? Because it's a "secret" feature just for Avalara and your Stripe account has to be approved for this feature.
trim vine
I am able to pass it.
I never requested access to the feature, it may have been enabled by our dedicated Stripe rep. I'm not sure. We meet with him bi weekly.
blazing berry
yeah it's likely the case. So in that case what my colleague recommended should work, you need to pass pay_immediately. But that's a better question for your Stripe rep in that case
