A little more info for context: I already have a fix underway to simply not create the $0 invoice in our system in this case, but wanted to see if there is a more recommended solution from your end (aside from using subscriptions for something they were not intended to be used for, of course 😂 )

Hi, with free trials a zero amount invoice will be created and there is not a way around it. Unless, you own that on your end and just create the subscription without a free trial

Got it. I am not using the free trials, it is kind of a perpetual subscription plan that is just set up to cost $0. The way our paid plans work is that they pay their monthly or yearly fee for the subscription and can buy additional products as they go which always bill monthly. The use case for us here was that the $0 subscription has less out of the box features for when they want to drop down into it from the paid plan, but still be able to retain their monthly billing cycle if they have any additional purchases.
I realize that is a slightly goofy use case, but just trying to see if there was any config I am missing since the test envs using the local listeners for webhooks to not send the invoice.created while the production setup does, or if we are just better off handling in our code that receives the webhook.
quick peak
Yeah, there is not an explicit configuration that you're missing. You'd want to handle this on your end.

sounds good, thanks!
