Can you share a request ID from where you created a Subscription like this. I would have thought it would have attempted a charge immediately.

Sure

#

req_OjlPo6iOUbt6bl

#

Just note that in this request I did not set the option since the doc states that it should be the default setting.

Sorry for the delay was catching up on the server

#

@main kestrel is looking with me, we'll revert back in a bit

hey @dry lichen ! it looks like you passed payment_behavior: "default_incomplete", which would prevent the invoice from charging automatically and requires you to pay it manually

#

there are docs here on the nuances for the payment_behavior setting: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-payment_behavior

#

this field is optional, though - you only need to pass it if you need one of the desired behaviors mentioned

#

removing that field from your request should fix the issue!

#

Also when using default_incomplete all you are supposed to do is confirm the associated PaymentIntent client-side

#

It's this step https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements#collect-payment
