This is possible! If the customer wants to pay in lump sum, this can be done with one-time payment: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/accept-a-payment

If the user wants to pay in 6 months, this can be done with Subscription Schedule: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#installment-plans

Your system should calculate how much the customer should pay each month, and set up the price accordingly

Is it different then a simple subscription?

And also do we need to create the product as well for these schedule subscriptions?

[primal glacier]

Standard subscription can achieve same requirement too, but your system has to explicitly set the exact timestamp when you like to cancel the subscription using cancel_at: https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-cancel_at

For Subscription Schedule, you can simply set how many cycles to end the subscription using iterations

ok then i think subscription schedule is good in this case.

Also, about the second question

Do i need to create product for this type of schedule subscription as well?

Also, i want to receive webhook as well so i can save data against these in my own system as well.

Yes

I'd recommend checking this guide on how to set up a Webhook endpoint to receive events: https://docs.stripe.com/webhooks
