looks like subscription schedules are what you're looking for then : https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules

how to get customer ID, after checkout?

Hi there! Jumping in for Alex, hope you don't mind.

#

There are a number of ways, one way I would recommend is to listen to checkout.session.completed webhook events.

#

Where the underlying Checkout Session contains a field customer, which is the Customer ID: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/object#checkout_session_object-customer

#

but this field is null

#

The new way Checkout Session works, if the Customer ID is not defined when creating the Checkout Session, the customer is acknowledged as "Guest", therefore there is no respective Customer object.

#

You can either:

create the Customer object in advance and use its Customer ID for the Checkout Session
or set the Checkout Session field customer_creation to always when creating it.
