Hi there. The recommended flow is described here: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions

Not creating payment intent prior to subscription

[grand knot]

this uses webhook, do i have to use webhook?

[jaunty flower]

It's highly recommended

But ultimately up to you

[grand knot]

ok, also i am not using cheockut session

if i dont create payment intent, will the customer be charge immediately

[jaunty flower]

There's another tab for a custom flow

https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements

[grand knot]

its a recurring payment but i want to charge the customer card immediately after subscribing like Netflix

[jaunty flower]

Yes that above guide does that

You can try it out in test mode

[grand knot]

yes i see,

i skipped a step, i am not sure if its necessary . The part where i make subscription incomplete ,confirm payment and make it active

i followed this: https://betterprogramming.pub/how-to-integrate-django-react-app-with-stripe-payments-95709b3f23e5
