Hey, can you share an example API request of the update you're trying to make?

#

I assume you've read the doc here: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/upgrade-downgrade

Upgrade and downgrade subscriptions

Learn how to upgrade and downgrade subscriptions by changing the price.

Thanks

#

With proration_behavior we only have the options:

proration_behavior=always_invoice or proration_behavior=none

However, we can't find a way to leave the billing cycle unchanged and only charge the prorated amount.

Do you now wthat I mean?

Well when upgrading/downgrading the billing anchor will change to that date, yep. Have you tried changing the billing anchor to the required date when updating the subscription? https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/billing-cycle#prorations

Setting the subscription billing cycle date

Subscriptions are billed on a cycle, learn how to set the billing date.

Unfortunately, we have not yet been able to achieve the desired result. to better understand our request. The following example:

Customer books annual subscription with term: 01.04.2022 to 01.04.2023 for 1200€.
he pays on 01.04.2022 1200€

On 01.06.2022 he upgrades for another 1200€.
He receives directly on 01.06.2022 the pro rata invoice of 1000€ for the remaining term until 01.04.2023.

On 01.04.2023 the customer pays then 2400€.

that is the cycle always remains the same and upgrades are charged directly.

How must the parameters be set for this?

Can you share a subscription ID or an API request ID?
