Hello!

#

I believe you can configure this through the Price you create

Price would be for a more expensive service correct?

#

or less expensive

Actually backing up for a minute here - is this a usage based subscription? Where you're reporting usage to us and charging at the end of the cycle?

#

its both

#

so the way it works

#

its a laundry service. Its 200 a month and that allows up to 300lb of laundry per month

#

if the customer goes over that amount I charger 1$ per pound over 300lb

#

so some months customers could be over or not

#

i need a way to charge them for anything over 300lbs

Gotcha - so you want to charge 200 up front at the beginning of the month and then depending on if they go over thethreshold charge them additional amounts depending on how much they go over

#

yes exactly

#

i have the 200 price setup

Gotcha - so I'd suggest doing this with two prices. One $200 licensed price, and the an additional metered price with graduated pricing (https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/examples#graduated-pricing) that you report usage for. For the metered price you'd have two two tiers - the first would be up to 300 and would be for $0, and then second tier would be for everything after 300
