Stripe - Adding a coupon when subscribing the user to a plan

oussama.bergaoui · 2021-01-06T01:17:59.617Z

Hi,

I would like to specify a coupon when subscribing the user to a plan.
Right now I am using ‘Subscribe the user to a plan’ action and then using ‘Apply a coupon to the user’s subscription’ action from the Stripe Plugin.
The problem with this is that we’re applying a discount AFTER a subscription has been made so the user will pay the full price first and not the discount price…

Seems like it’s not possible to specify a coupon to the very first action and I’m wondering why…

I’m wondering how I can manage this…

Thank you very much for your help

Anyone ? I noticed that when we use Checkout V3 (SCA-compliant) we cannot apply a coupon. But when we select Checkout v2 it is possible. Anyone has a solution for this ? thank you

Hi @oussama.bergaoui
Did you find the solution for applying the coupons?
I have the same issue, as can’t implement coupons to the subscriptions.
I’m thinking about to create the coupons myself and made ‘fork’ popup ‘do you have a coupon?’. Then, those who don’t have a coupon, point to the ‘full price’ subscription workflow, and those who have a coupon, point to the ‘discounted price’ subscription workflow. I just need to create two different Products/Subscriptions in my Stripe account.
Is that seems something useful for you?

Hi,

I did not find a solution for this.
Good idea to create the process yourself. You could do that but then how do you manage the “period of validity” : Permanent, only once, or for X months? I guess the discount can only be permanent in this case.
