Create a subscription

A list of prices and quantities that will generate invoice items appended to the next invoice for this subscription. You may pass up to 20 items.

A non-negative decimal between 0 and 100, with at most two decimal places. This represents the percentage of the subscription invoice total that will be transferred to the application owner's Stripe account. The request must be made by a platform account on a connected account in order to set an application fee percentage. For more information, see the application fees documentation.

Automatic tax settings for this subscription.

A past timestamp to backdate the subscription's start date to. If set, the first invoice will contain line items for the timespan between the start date and the current time. Can be combined with trials and the billing cycle anchor.

A future timestamp in UTC format to anchor the subscription's billing cycle. The anchor is the reference point that aligns future billing cycle dates. It sets the day of week for week intervals, the day of month for month and year intervals, and the month of year for year intervals.

Define thresholds at which an invoice will be sent, and the subscription advanced to a new billing period. When updating, pass an empty string to remove previously-defined thresholds.

A timestamp at which the subscription should cancel. If set to a date before the current period ends, this will cause a proration if prorations have been enabled using proration_behavior. If set during a future period, this will always cause a proration for that period.

Indicate whether this subscription should cancel at the end of the current period (current_period_end). Defaults to false.

Either charge_automatically, or send_invoice. When charging automatically, Stripe will attempt to pay this subscription at the end of the cycle using the default source attached to the customer. When sending an invoice, Stripe will email your customer an invoice with payment instructions and mark the subscription as active. Defaults to charge_automatically.

Three-letter ISO currency code, in lowercase. Must be a supported currency.

Number of days a customer has to pay invoices generated by this subscription. Valid only for subscriptions where collection_method is set to send_invoice.

ID of the default payment method for the subscription. It must belong to the customer associated with the subscription. This takes precedence over default_source. If neither are set, invoices will use the customer's invoice_settings.default_payment_method or default_source.

ID of the default payment source for the subscription. It must belong to the customer associated with the subscription and be in a chargeable state. If default_payment_method is also set, default_payment_method will take precedence. If neither are set, invoices will use the customer's invoice_settings.default_payment_method or default_source.

The tax rates that will apply to any subscription item that does not have tax_rates set. Invoices created will have their default_tax_rates populated from the subscription.

The coupons to redeem into discounts for the subscription. If not specified or empty, inherits the discount from the subscription's customer.

Specifies which fields in the response should be expanded.

All invoices will be billed using the specified settings.

A list of up to 20 subscription items, each with an attached price.

Set of key-value pairs that you can attach to an object. This can be useful for storing additional information about the object in a structured format. Individual keys can be unset by posting an empty value to them. All keys can be unset by posting an empty value to metadata.

Indicates if a customer is on or off-session while an invoice payment is attempted. Defaults to false (on-session).

Controls how Stripe handles the first invoice when payment is required and collection_method=charge_automatically. Subscriptions with collection_method=send_invoice are automatically activated regardless of the first Invoice status.

Payment settings to pass to invoices created by the subscription.

Specifies an interval for how often to bill for any pending invoice items. It is analogous to calling Create an invoice for the given subscription at the specified interval.

Determines how to handle prorations resulting from the billing_cycle_anchor. If no value is passed, the default is create_prorations.

If specified, the funds from the subscription's invoices will be transferred to the destination and the ID of the resulting transfers will be found on the resulting charges.

Unix timestamp representing the end of the trial period the customer will get before being charged for the first time. If set, trial_end will override the default trial period of the plan the customer is being subscribed to. The special value now can be provided to end the customer's trial immediately. Can be at most two years from billing_cycle_anchor. See Using trial periods on subscriptions to learn more.

Indicates if a plan's trial_period_days should be applied to the subscription. Setting trial_end per subscription is preferred, and this defaults to false. Setting this flag to true together with trial_end is not allowed. See Using trial periods on subscriptions to learn more.

Integer representing the number of trial period days before the customer is charged for the first time. This will always overwrite any trials that might apply via a subscribed plan. See Using trial periods on subscriptions to learn more.

Settings related to subscription trials.

ID of the Connect Application that created the subscription.

A non-negative decimal between 0 and 100, with at most two decimal places. This represents the percentage of the subscription invoice total that will be transferred to the application owner's Stripe account.

The reference point that aligns future billing cycle dates. It sets the day of week for week intervals, the day of month for month and year intervals, and the month of year for year intervals. The timestamp is in UTC format.

The fixed values used to calculate the billing_cycle_anchor.

The billing mode of the subscription.

Billing schedules for this subscription.

Define thresholds at which an invoice will be sent, and the subscription advanced to a new billing period

A date in the future at which the subscription will automatically get canceled

Whether this subscription will (if status=active) or did (if status=canceled) cancel at the end of the current billing period.

If the subscription has been canceled, the date of that cancellation. If the subscription was canceled with cancel_at_period_end, canceled_at will reflect the time of the most recent update request, not the end of the subscription period when the subscription is automatically moved to a canceled state.

Details about why this subscription was cancelled

Either charge_automatically, or send_invoice. When charging automatically, Stripe will attempt to pay this subscription at the end of the cycle using the default source attached to the customer.

ID of the default payment source for the subscription. It must belong to the customer associated with the subscription and be in a chargeable state. If default_payment_method is also set, default_payment_method will take precedence. If neither are set, invoices will use the customer's invoice_settings.default_payment_method or default_source.

The tax rates that will apply to any subscription item that does not have tax_rates set. Invoices created will have their default_tax_rates populated from the subscription.

The subscription's description, meant to be displayable to the customer. Use this field to optionally store an explanation of the subscription for rendering in Stripe surfaces and certain local payment methods UIs.

If the subscription has ended, the date the subscription ended.

Unique identifier for the object.

List of subscription items, each with an attached price.

The most recent invoice this subscription has generated over its lifecycle (for example, when it cycles or is updated).
