hi there!

shrewd flower
#

oh I see! I tried adding 40 free trial days but with then I advanced time with the test clock and the customer was billed again once the trial was over

#

but it kind of messes with the UI (we show different things based on whether you have an active trial or a "standard" sub)

#

is there an alternative?

#

reading through that doc page I see I can set the billing cycle anchor to "now"
if I were to do this in 30 days, would it bill the user somehow? or does setting proration_behavior=none in the request prevent the new invoice / billing?

You could use metadata to know if it's a "real trial" or not
is there an alternative?
not really

I mean sure, a workaround is easy to find. was just wondering if it was possible to do in a "legit" way somehow, didn't seem like an edge case tbh 😄

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

by passing proration_behavior: 'always'

#

or does setting proration_behavior=none in the request prevent the new invoice / billing?
correct

#

so to achieve this without free trial days I can set myself a reminder to run this command in 30 days, right?

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/subscriptions/sub_XXXXXX \
  -u sk_test_...: \
  -X POST \
  -d "proration_behavior=none" \
  -d "billing_cycle_anchor=now" \
  -d "cancel_at_period_end=false"
#

and it should work if I were to test this with clocks as well right?

you can use subscription schedules actually
