Hello! Yes, that should be possible. Can you tell me how you're integrating Stripe? Are you using Stripe Checkout? Building your own payment page?

I'm trying to build the subscription system with following https://stripe.com/docs/billing/quickstart (that means I'm using Stripe Checkout?), and I use React and Firebase (Auth, Firestore and Firebase cloud functions)

Gotcha, yeah, that quick start is for Stripe Checkout, which is not compatible with what you're trying to do. You would need to switch to your own interface to start the Subscription and not collect payment details. This is the API you would use to create the Subscription: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create

#

There are more details here: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/trials

Thank you so much. I'd like to know but what is Stripe Checkout exactly?

#

Checkout is a Stripe-hosted payment form. There are more details here: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout

#

The primary purpose of Checkout is to collect payment information and then save it for later use, kick off a payment, or start a Subscription. That's not what you want to do, so it's not a good fit for your use case. 🙂

If I didn't use Stripe Checkout I cannot have the interface like the image is that correct?
Is there any way to have the UI provided by Stripe without putting user's card info at the beginning of the trial?

Correct, that UI is Stripe Checkout, and that UI requires payment details to work. There's no way to get that UI without requiring payment details.
