Modify subscriptions

Change existing subscriptions to cancel, pause, apply prorated charges and credits, and more.

Copy page

You can change existing subscriptions without having to cancel and recreate them. Set up the customer portal to let your customers manage their own subscriptions and billing details through a Stripe-hosted page.

For changes that automatically create a new subscription invoice, use pending updates so that the updates are only applied if the new invoice is successfully paid.

Use cases

Change billing cycle

Adjust the billing date for subscriptions.

Change prices

Upgrade and downgrade subscriptions by changing the price.

Cancel active subscriptions

Manually cancel your customers’ subscriptions.

Pause payment collection

Temporarily stop collecting payments from your customers.

Apply discounts

Add discounts to subscriptions using coupons and promotion codes.

Use trial periods

Delay payments on active subscriptions using trial periods.

Set quantities

Subscribe a customer to multiple quantities of a product.

Collect taxes

Collect and report taxes with Stripe Billing and Stripe Tax.

Set payment methods

Specify which payment methods to allow for a subscription.
