Hi 👋 if you're referring to the first invoice then I believe that is expected (though I'm double checking the specifics) because the first invoice is for the trial period, is a zero-dollar invoice, and doesn't generate a payment.

Thanks for your answer. OK, that makes sense. But how can I create a subscription that starts with a trial period but doesn't start until a credit card is deposited? Is there a guide or code example for this?

You can use a flow like this to first collect and set up a payment method for the customer. When creating the subscription downstream you can check to ensure the customer has a valid payment method before actually creating it.

perfect thank you, I thought I could solve it all with a simple subscription object
