Hi, let me help you with this.

#

This can be achieved with Subscription Schedule. This is an advanced feature, and I would only recommend to use it if there's no other workaround. Basically, you need to:

  1. Turn your Subscription into a Subscription Schedule: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#existing-subscription
  2. Add a new phase to the SubSchedule with the new parameters, and set the current phase to 1 iteration.

You can read more about Subscription Schedules here to understand the concept better: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules

oh ok let me check

#

possible to provide some code sample related to that or some video guide as could not understand it

I can't explain it better than the documentation, unfortunately. Which parts exactly are unclear?

👋 taking over for my colleague. Let me know if there's any follow-up Qs I can answer!

Hey yes I am confused with the end_behaviour. Like let's say I applied a change to upgrade subscription. Then what kind of end behaviour I should use

orchid matrix
slim aurora
#

"release"

#

which means once the first iteration is done the subscription schedule will no longer control the subscription

orchid matrix
#

But what about upgrade will that be applied to subscription?

slim aurora
#

you decide

orchid matrix
#

didn't get it

#

like won't stripe update subscription if no then what's the point of subscription schedule

slim aurora
#

the subscription schedule will update the subscription's price when the phase start

#

but each phase has a start and end date

#

once the end date reaches that phase, the subscription schedule applies the next phase's price to the subscription

#

when there's no longer any subsequent phases, the subscription schedule has 2 end_behaviors

#

1- release: releases the subscription from the schedule... which means that the subscription is no longer controlled by the schedule

#

2- cancel: the subscription is no longer active

orchid matrix
#

so for my use case where I want to upgrade/downgrade subscription at subscription.current_end_date:

I should create a phase that starts at subscription.current_end_date but I want this to continue forever so what should be the end date and should I even set that at all in this case?

Also the next invoice must be in draft state at subscription.current_end_date. So will the invoice updated with new upgraded price?

slim aurora
#

if you want for the subscription to continue after the upgrade

#

the last phase (the upgrade price) should have iterations:1 and end_behavior: "release"

orchid matrix
#

that I understood but still things left to be answered:

  1. I should create a phase that starts at subscription.current_end_date?
  2. I want this to continue forever so what should be the end date and should I even set that at all in this case?
  3. Also the next invoice must be in draft state at subscription.current_end_date. So will the invoice updated with new upgraded price?

I should create a phase that starts at subscription.current_end_date?
first you create a subscription schedule from the subscription, then you update the subscription schedule with the same first phase that now ends at subscription.current_end_date and add a second phase which starts at the subscription.current_end_date

#

I want this to continue forever so what should be the end date and should I even set that at all in this case?
the last phase (the upgrade price) should have iterations:1 and end_behavior: "release"

#

Also the next invoice must be in draft state at subscription.current_end_date. So will the invoice updated with new upgraded price?
yes

#

got it ok let me try checking if all this works fine with test clock and all but thanks for help

slim aurora
