hello! Can you explain what do you mean by auto collection off? Do you mean auto_advance=false?

round lagoon Sep 12, 2024, 7:08 AM

#

Auto collection off means I want to create a scheduled subscription without taking its payment and create its invoice with due amount and later on When i add card to the subscription then those invoices get paid

Can you explain your use case here? Typically, you would want to already have the payment method and then when the invoice is generated, Stripe would automatically attempt to charge the default payment method

#

Yes I want to stop the automatically collection of invoice.

#

hello there?

if you want to stop the automatic collection of the invoices for a period of time, then it sounds to me like https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/pause-payment is what you're looking for. If you're using subscription schedules, then you would need to wait for the subscription to be created, then update the subscription to pause it. The subscription will be active. I'm not entirely certain if this is the exact behaviour you're looking for so you should test it to be sure

Pause payment collection

Learn how to pause payment collection on subscriptions.

What is collection_method to send_invoice? Is it will create due invoice ??

deft yew Sep 12, 2024, 7:35 AM

#

collection_method="send_invoice" will email a link to a hosted invoice page for the user to pay

Actually I want to create a subscription without taking its payment using card.

I want to create a scheduled subscription without taking its payment and create its invoice with due amount and later on When i add card to the subscription then those invoices get paid
