o we have an ios application which using paymentSheet and based on the case - if there is a trial option backend is sending secrets for setup intent, if it is normal payment the BE is sending secrets for payment intent

#

hi there

#

that split flow (setup vs payment intent secret) seems correct to me

autumn flicker Oct 16, 2025, 3:44 PM

#

also on the backend we are creating subscriptions each time

jagged patio Oct 16, 2025, 3:44 PM

#

what is not working like you expect?

autumn flicker Oct 16, 2025, 3:44 PM

#

i think we previously discuesed it with you

#

so on the ios when he is dismissing the payment sheets - the case where he wants different plan

#

i am getting on the backend webhook event saying that the invoice is paid

#

which is strange

jagged patio Oct 16, 2025, 3:46 PM

#

Can you share some specific subscription/invoice ID where you observe this and consider it unexpected?

autumn flicker Oct 16, 2025, 3:47 PM

#

for example

#

sub_1SIst2COtHrcpcR8XOpHErJR

#

i will explain what we are doing ion the FE and BE

on FE the user picks spcific product and based on it i am (BE) generating secrets for it - in case of trial -> subscription with trial period and setup intent secrets / in case of normal payment forcing that thing with the latest invoice to get payment intent secrets. Each time the call is made i am creating an incomplete subscription on the backend. but for some reason dismissing the payment collecting screen on IOS kicks a webhook event

#

example event

    "externalPaymentId": "in_1SIrJeCOtHrcpcR8Uj75tpRl",
    "externalSubscriptionId": "sub_1SIrJeCOtHrcpcR8PNVJBo19",```

someone

#

👋 stepping in

#

Taking a look

#

So for $0 Subscriptions (like with trials) the Invoice is immediately paid upon the Subscription being created.

#

This is expected.

#

You still have access to the generated SetupIntent to collect a PaymentMethod, but it is not contingent on that in terms of the Subscription starting and the Invoice being marked paid.

#

is this someting new

#

because we were not seeing it before

stone lion Oct 16, 2025, 4:01 PM

#

No that is not new

#

It has always been the case

autumn flicker Oct 16, 2025, 4:06 PM

#

so basically if i init using the secrets from BE using the paymentsheet in ios it means the invoice is paid and the subscription is moved to trial status from DEFAULT_INCOMPLETE

stone lion Oct 16, 2025, 4:08 PM

#

A trial Subscription will never be in incomplete or default_incomplete

#

It will always immediately be trialing

autumn flicker Oct 16, 2025, 4:08 PM

#

no it is not what i was observing previously

stone lion Oct 16, 2025, 4:09 PM
