Hey there. The invoice payment will simply fail in these cases

Invoice will be created anyway, but the customer wont get any email about it?

agile ingot
#

Hmm, depends on your account settings

#

Generally they wouldn't receive an invoice/receipt until after payment. But there's emails you can enable that I think would be sent in these cases

#

The best option is to just set a default payment method on the subscription!

#

We're actually working to change the default behaviour of this so it will be set automatically

  1. Schedule subscription

  2. Customer adds payment method x days later

  3. Subscription starts y days later

  4. and 3. can be swapped.

We'd prefer that if there is a payment method then charge it, otherwise send the invoice. Any way to feed that workflow in stripe?

#

A follow up question - for subscriptions, collection_method can be updated directly. But for schedules subscriptions its under plans and seems cannot be updated without deleting and creating again all plans?

Sorry, catching up

Thats fine

Yes, but not sure this will apply to invoices retrospectively

Shouldn't be the case

I tried updating just collection_method but got an error that the other values are missing

Yes you need to pass the entire phase object as it is

#

If you don't, it'll assume the intention is to remove the parameters
