Hi, can you reword your ask please? What does 'insert customer stripe payment links ' mean?

I want to clarify this more with some examples. Say the invoice (3333) is for $28, 312, 2 year subscription and payment terms are monthly, quarterly, bi-yearly and I have the subscription start and end date. I now want to specify that this invoice is paid quarterly, for two years, starting on 3/1/2025, with payment $3539 each quarter
Once a payment link has been generated, I would auto insert this into the QB's invoice so customers can pay from their QB's pdf files or QB online version. I would turn off the QB's credit card payments since those can only do one time manual payments not recurring ones.

Hi there 👋 Payment Links alone can't do this. Subscriptions in Stripe were designed by default to run indefinitely, so you need to leverage other features in order to pre-define an ending for them like you're describing. Those would be our Subscription Schedules, which you cannot use with Payment Links.
You would need a fair bit of custom coding to plumb this all together.

I played around with subscriptions in the UI and I made an invoice a product and references it in a subscription and then invoice link. It worked but what did not work is, 1. i had to do this manually vs in an api call and 2. i did not see a way to actually set an end date. so the product was invoice 3333 for $28,312 and the payments were every 3 months recurring. I would not not specific to stop after 8 payments.
