Hi, you will need to pay the first invoice, see https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/overview#subscription-lifecycle

[blissful knoll]

@dreamy ruin do I need to get the invoice id from the incomplete subsctiption object and pay the amount by myself as a developer right?

Hey! Taking over from @dreamy ruin - let me catch-up!

Do you have some front-end (JavaScript) code where you call Stripe.js to confirm the initial subscription payment?

Specifically: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscription?ui=elements#collect-payment

[blissful knoll]

no, I develop API for mobile app using python,

How are you collecting payment information from your customers?

[blissful knoll]

he provides card info and I get token for this card from stripe and I add this token to customer

and this card becomes customers

[south tangle]

You still need to use Stripe.js to complete the initial subscription payment (essentially activating the subscription): https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscription?ui=elements#complete-payment

This is why you have status: 'incomplete' right now: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/overview#default-incomplete
