hi there

Have you seen this guide? https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/usage-based/thresholds
I think that is what you're after
fading trench
yep but this is what Stripe Assistant is outlining
the guide also seems to imply that
You can create billing_thresholds to issue an invoice when a customer’s accrued usage in a service period reaches a specific monetary threshold. You can also reset a subscription’s billing_cycle_anchor when a customer reaches the monetary threshold.
Consider using billing thresholds to limit the amount owed or the products consumed between invoices or charges.
That seems to imply the threshold is more to trigger invoice within a billing period v/s having it accrue across?
sick temple
Yep, that's right - I misunderstood your question at first glance. So you only want to cut an Invoice when a particular amount of usage has been reached, right? You're indexing on usage rather than period
fading trench
correct.. we want to roll over usage into the next period if it is below a threshold (and repeat that as needed), till the invoice amount is > threshold.
sick temple
I'm still looking but I don't think we support this currently
fading trench
ack / ty!
what would stripe fees be if the user gets invoiced for $0.10 (which is way below the threshold)?
sick temple
We don't actually charge for Invoices below a minimum chargeable amount, which I think is $0.50 usd. We cut a $0 invoice instead and roll the amount over to the next period
fading trench
that is useful / can you please confirm? Ideally we want an invoicing threshold of $5. What would (standard) stripe fees be for invoices under that threshold?
sick temple
I'm sorry but I can't really answer questions about fees - I think the baseline was 0.7% in addition to the processing fees
I don't think we support what you want to do currently - I don't see a way that you can make the Subscription not cut an Invoice if usage is below a certain amount
fading trench
so the only min threshold is the $0.50 for invoicing, which gets rolled over into next period. But otherwise invoices at the end of each period?
