Hi there 😅 🐉

#

The issue is that Stripe generates a first invoice when creating the subscription and charges the user again. I need to link the captured payment intent to the subscription’s first invoice (marking it as paid) while ensuring future renewals are charged automatically. How can I achieve this?

Taking a step back, I think a cleaner solution would be directly create a Subscription first, let it generate a PaymentIntent then try to change that PaymentIntent's capture_method to manual.
Not sure if that's possible, let me quickly test it

#

Otherwise, as you observed, you would want to mark the first Invoice of your Subscription as paid by giving the customer a credit notes, a 100% discount

Hey! 😀
If the first solution is possible, it would be really clean!

mint sandal
#

Ugh it's not possible, sorry

Some of the parameters you provided (capture_method) cannot be used when modifying a PaymentIntent that was created by an invoice. You can try again without those parameters
#

So yeah you would want to "adjust" the first Invoice. Mark it as paid_out_out_band is also a way

pale latch
#

how to set paid out of band?

Thanks for sharing!

#

But, how to set up the subscription in such way that it doesn't charge on creation?

mint sandal
#

You can set payment_behavior to default_incomplete

pale latch
#

And this will just apply on first invoice, right?

#

future ones will happen normally?

mint sandal
#

Yeah, will be using the payment method you setup for the Subscription

pale latch
#

Awesome! Thanks Orakaro!

#

Can I ask one more question?

mint sandal
#

(you will want to set the collected payment_method on the Payment Intent, to the Subscription)

#

Sure

pale latch
#

yes, I did that

#

thanks for the heads up

#

You can't set it right away by the way

#

you need to first attach it to the customer

#

when you set the payment intent

mint sandal
#

Yep. Or you set the PM as the customer's invoice_settings.default_payment_method

pale latch
#

hmm, that's clean as well!

#

My second question was: Is it possible to specify how many retries on failed subscription renewals before sub cancellation? If so, when and how should it be specified?
