Hi, let me help you with this.
You can create a Subscription Schedule with 2 phases, one with a monthly Price, lasting 1 month, and second - yearly. After which the Schedule can be released and it will just stay as a regular annual Subscription.
However, Payment Links don't support Subscription Schedules out-of-the-box. You will need to create a Payment Link with a monthly Price first. Then, as soon as the Subscription is created, (you can use webhooks) you will need to turn it into a Schedule, and then update it to add the second, annual phase.

Yes, that was my first idea. But "Subscription Schedule" can only run for a maximum of 20 years. After that, the subscription falls back to the trial price.

After that, the subscription falls back to the trial price.
Where did you find that information?
You can release the Schedule right after it goes to the second phase, so it stays as a regular Subscription.

At this point, the subscription is left in place and is no longer associated with the schedule.
I understand, that the scheduled price ends and the subscription price (in my case the monthly trial price) gets active.
yes, you are right @sleek umbra :

After the phase ends, attributes remain the same unless the next phase modifies them, or if the schedule has no default setting.
I thought that the subscription would remain unchanged while "Subscription schedules" is active.
Thank you!!!

No, the latest active phase will become a regular Subscription's config.
