Because when there is a trial there is no payment. Instead you want to get the pending_setup_intent field from the Subscription object

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

I want to call create subscription to purchase a 7-day free trial SKU. The create subscription returns a client secret, and the client uses stripe.js to confirm the payment method.

[distant sun]

when you start a subscription in trial period, there won't be any payment until the trial period has ended

to collect the payment method to be charged later for the first payment after the trial period, you need to use the pending_setup_intent's client_secret and confirm the setup on the front end

so you need to add both latest_invoice.payment_intent and pending_setup_intent to the expand

and based on whether the pending_setup_intent is null or not, you send the corresponding client_secret and type of confirmation (setup or payment) to the frontend to correctly collect the payment methods and confirm the SetupIntent or the PaymentIntent
