Sorry, so say I have a direct debit set up as a subscription. That's paying off a total amount eg... $1000 total gets paid off $100 a week. Is it possible that the customer can do a one off payment of $200 to either reduce the weekly payment or the date the subscription is paid off

it's not possible automatically

#

In short, it's going to require you to implement the logic -

somehow accept the payment from the user (and identify that this is to offset the subscription payment)
apply the payment to the customer balance as an adjustment
Stripe will apply the adjustment to the next invoice automatically

Alright thanks for that, I'm just getting familiar with stripe. So sorry for this next noob question but how would I change the next invoice or total amount manually in this scenario?

you wouldn't need to, Stripe would do it automatically

#

you can try this out. If you navigate to a customer page and credit money to the customer's balance

#

then create an invoice for an invoice item

Ok got it, so that's going to reduce the amount credited on the next invoice
