Hi all, for those of you using Stripe to handle customer subscriptions, do invoices automatically get paid/denied at current_period_end, or is there a lag time? For example, using the default settings, the first invoice of a subscription stays open for 23 hours. Is it the same with future billing cycles or does the invoice get paid/denied immediately? Thanks!
subscription invoices are created 1 hour before they are attempted to be charged.

Thanks @boston85719 ! To clarify, do you mean the invoice is generated one hour before current_period_end, and that the status of the subscription at that time is indicative of the final status of the payment? Or that current_period_end generates an invoice, and one hour later the payment status is finalized.
Iām not sure. Test it out. Create a subscription that has duration of one day, then check the Stripe logs to see the timing of things.
