hi there!
let me try paraphrase it, can we create subscripion (with custom amount) and postopone its 'start date' for one month if user click yes, so he would immediately have like 'pending' subscription, until the payment succeed the following month
So you want to start a Subscription, but allow users to cancel teh subscription before it renews?
no,
i want to postopone the start of the subscription for the user if they agree to convert 'one off' payment to 'recurring'. so basically that first one-off payment will be like 'first subscription', but I would immediatelly allow them to create subscription starting next month, so they don't need to come back again
use case is as on the image, user donated through checkout as one-off payment, and I would offer them to 'become monthly donor' instead just after payment succeeded
however, if they do that, I wouldn't charge them immediately for new subscription, but postpone it to the next month, since they already donated one off
so I just need a way to postpone a subscription basically with custom amount
then yes:
- create a one time payment, while saving the card for later (in case they want to create a subscription)
- then create a Subscription Schedule if needed, to create the Subscription in the future
you can learn about Subscription Schedules here: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules
i'm just not sure, at which point they would 'accept subscription" even if the card details are saved, because they didn't opt in for subcription while doing one off payment ? are they gonna have some checkout link or email when subscription is due to accept it? I don't quite understand that part
it's up to you to handle how you want to communicate this to users. and once the Subscrpition starts, you can configure Stripe to automatically send invoices to users.
so you saying that saved payment details for one-off payment by user, will work for recurring payment as well used in API
correct!
