hey !
i'm working with the api
but the plan updates are scheduled for the next month
& the client dont want to wait till next month
regarding the webhook, my api needs to be notified of the plan upgrade, to make changes on my db

Got it. So you'd want to upgrade the subscription 'plan' but with no prorations. The only way you can force immediate payment would be to also 'reset' the billing anchor

the plan A is 69€ and plan B 99€
I want to collect only the difference
on the upgrade
(30€)
& keep the billing anchor as it is
i mean the start date

Then isn't proration exactly what you need? They'd be credited for the unused time on the €69 plan and pay the pro-rata amount for the remaining billing cycle on the €99
If the billing date remains the same, then that's probably gonna work out to ~€30

is there a way to pretend the client started on the plan costing 99€ ?
& collect exactly 30€
because it's an assurance company
there is no "unused time"
on the upgrade will upgrade his covers
grim flax
Pretend? Is there a pre-existing subscription on a €99 plan or not?
grim flax
Sorry, meant €69
stable verge
yes the 69€ sub exists
perhaps i can send an invoice of 30e ?
and update the sub without charging the customer no ?

Thinking about this. I think the only way to do this as cleanly as you like would be:
• Schedule the upgrade to the €99 plan from the next billing period: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#upgrading-subscriptions
• In the interim invoice the €30 difference independently.
