I am not aware of such a feature (automatically pick up left over time when cancel a Subscription). I think if you want it, you would need to implement it yourself somehow. When you have the cancellation request, you would know how many time left, create credit accordingly

I want to create the credit (from the time remaining) when they purchase a new subscription. But since I am using the customer portal, I was wondering how to do it to give a user experience that makes sense. i.e. shows the credit being applied to the new purchase. Any idea if something like that is achievable?

#

(with the credit only actually being applied if they go through with the purchase)

No such a feature in Customer Portal AFAIK, sorry for the inconvenience

All good. I will have a think. thanks for your time

#

Just putting another idea together.. I am thinking of instead of credit, I delay the first billing date. If I built something to convert the time remaining to whatever it would be at the new subscription price point, and then delayed the initial payment for the new subscription using billing_cycle_anchor and proration_behavior: none ... do you think that would work well, or are there some issues doing it this way?

#

or you can simple create new Subscription with trial, would do the same thing ๐Ÿ™‚

#

You would need to calculate how many days for trial period similarly, tho

Yeah, I am thinking about that.. it's just that the customer portal then has a 'start trial' button (or something like that) which is slightly confusing for users. I am hoping the billing_cycle_anchor way might lead to the purchase button having more user friendly text... hopefully ๐Ÿ˜„

Thanks for all your help Orakaro. I'll give this approach a go ๐Ÿ™‚
