Hey there 👋 are you trying to set the start date to be in the future or the past?

It can be both according to different case

#

But to start I want to success with a future date

For future dates, this can't be done via checkout. You'd likely use the checkout session with a setup intent to collect the customer's payment method, and then create a subscription on the desired start date from your backend system.

Ok !

And for past date ?

#

It's the same ?

Correct -- checkout doesn't support these use cases currently. You can see the subscription parameters available for you to control via checkout within subscription_data:
