Have you looked at using test clocks? https://docs.stripe.com/billing/testing/test-clocks
They're built to test recurring flows
proud mango
Yup
What docs have you been referring to so far? I'd love to share the feedback with our docs team to see if we can add a callout to test clocks
proud mango
Yeah it has a callout to this doc - https://docs.stripe.com/billing/testing
which does talk about test clocks
All good though. Easy to miss
storm sundial
I'll try this
Could I still get answers to my other questions please🙏🏼?
- What happens when a subscription is created but the transaction never completes
- If I buy a subscriptions with quantity > 1, if the sub is canceled, are all instances are canceled?
- I added application_fee_percent to connect accounts but I don't see any changes on the first invoice, it's just the regular price, how can I see the changes associated with passing this value?

What happens when a subscription is created but the transaction never completes
Are you asking about the first payment or recurring payment?
If recurring/renewal payment, after all the retries have been exhausted - we would default to what you've selected under manage failed payment for subscriptions settings here - https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/billing/automatic
If I buy a subscriptions with quantity > 1, if the sub is canceled, are all instances are canceled?
Yes. The only way to keep other instances running would be to create multiple subscriptions.
I added application_fee_percent to connect accounts but I don't see any changes on the first invoice, it's just the regular price, how can I see the changes associated with passing this value?
Can you share an example subscription ID?
If you've configured the application fee correctly, then you should probably see portion of the payment get transferred starting from first invoice

> What happens when a subscription is created but the transaction never complete...
no, what would happen if during checkout flow I create the customer, then the subscription, pass the payment intent to the elements for checkout but the customer never completes the transaction.

You can try it out in test mode to be 100% certain but based on thepayment_behavioryou choose - https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-payment_behavior
Subscription would remain incomplete for 23 hours and then would move to incomplete_expired state
storm sundial
Ah ok, so theres no need for me to do some type of clean up?
proud mango
Correct
storm sundial
awesome!
proud mango
For the test subscription you've shared, the application fee was deducted - https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/payments/pi_3QUaK9RV63Pk0C880oh6GHE1
It isn't reflected on the invoice but on the underlying PaymentIntent instead

storm sundial
oh I see
just to confirm, this would be the value based on what I passed on the creation payload?
inland root
just to confirm, this would be the value based on what I passed on the creation ...
Yes that looks to be the case
storm sundial
perfect! So on every invoice this value should be there and should always have the same value?
inland root
On every invoice's payment intent
But yes
Also the amount theoretically could change
You passed application fee as a percent
So if the invoice total ever changes due to priceschanges, tax changes, etc then the application fee amount would change too
storm sundial
Good to know, thank you and hanzo so much for your help!
inland root
No problem
