Hi, you'd likely want to review this, we document how subscriptions work here: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/overview#payment

The invoice will be created before the pament

How subscriptions work

Manage recurring payments and subscription lifecycles.

I will review that document in a min, thanks.

Just a few more questions on our scenarions.
So in our case, what we will do is the following:

Create a connected account (if it does not yet exist)
Create a payment using the mode "subscription" in the checkout session and we will create the line items directly in the checkout session
We will send the user to the checkout page

If in the checkout page they press cancel, does the invoice and pending subscription just stay there endlessly? Or will I need to define a cancel url path to actively cancel this now pending subscription?

Ah you're using Stripe Checkout.. There won't be any subscription as the customer would not have gone through the flow to create the subscription. At this point, you would have just created the CheckoutSession.

So in this case, since we are using stripe checkout, the subscription and invoice will only be created after the payment suceeds and is setup for future use?

#

I am basically looking into these docs
https://docs.stripe.com/payments/subscriptions

Where we will use the checkout page in Stripe

That is correct. You would want to review this document, https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/how-checkout-works?payment-ui=stripe-hosted instead. I also recommend that once you're ready, we have test cards to simulate different scenarios: https://docs.stripe.com/testing

Perfect, thank you very much for those docs

I will try and setup locally a few tests, since we do have the test environment setup, I just wanted to confirm it so I can figure out how we will deal with the webhook side of things

Thanks for the help @little apex
