Migrate subscriptions to Stripe Billing

Learn about migrating subscriptions from other sources to Stripe.

You can import existing subscriptions from third-party billing systems (such as Zuora, Recurly, Chargify, or Chargebee) into Stripe Billing. You can also migrate subscriptions from an in-house billing system or from a different Stripe account.

Use the Billing migration toolkit to migrate your subscriptions without writing code. Alternatively, you can use the Stripe APIs to import subscriptions with manual scripts.

You must know:

  • Your current payment processor.
  • Your current subscription provider.
  • Your pricing model.
