Hi there 👋 I don't think there's anything wrong, I believe that's expected to not be supported.

Understood, so maybe I need to rethink my approach for a new time 😫

#

The idea was to edit the description for each invoice, and the amount, but it seems the only way is to apply a discount here (and it will appear on the invoice as discount 100%)

I don't think I have enough context from your previous thread to really parse what you're saying, but updating this Invoice is going to be pretty limited since it was generated from a Subscription and inherits a lot of its details.

Understood, I think that over the course of the discussions, Stripe is not necessarily suitable for complex pricing (due to limitations).

Oh wait, I remember a bit about this now. Agreed, your pricing model is quite complex and doesn't seem to fit into any of our models well.

Yes we speak few days ago about this 😉

After a lot of researchs, I think the best way to achieve this is:

  • I create two product on my dashboard (one for the 3%, one for the minimun price 0.25 € / TiB)

  • my customer click on button "Subscribe", will redirect to checkout session in setup mode (collect billing address and credit card)

  • my backend will listen checkout.session.completed to create a subscription for this customer. Add the two product with 0 quantity (so amount will be 0)

  • use subscription only for invoice schedulling

  • on invoice.created event, i will add one line per day with a good description "You consume X transaction (total price = X, total size = 2 TiB). Price applied = X €"

  • the price applied is fetch from invoice data based on subscription product

  • the two lines of subscription product will be on the invoice but at 0€ charge (I think it's not a problem)

using this, I can also apply exception for customer to apply another price (for example 0% and 0.10 / TiB, only for specific customer)

👍 seems reasonable if you don't think the appearance of the $0 lines on the invoice will be confusing for your customers. I still think it'd be cleaner to not try to cram this into a Subscription since it doesn't fit our pricing models well, but can see how hooking on the status of those can be beneficial.
