Hey folks,
I'd like to perform a change of a single subscription, but only after a period of three months.
* I want to increase the price for an existing billing plan, so that I can create new subscriptions based on that plan
* Existing customers stay on the "old" billing plan price, but upgrade after exactly 3 months and then pay the new price
I found that I could customize subscriptions so that they have a custom price, that this would start with the next billing cycle and that paypal would send users a notification with the changes. One solution is that I try to do the subscription customization, but wait two months. Maybe there is another simpler solution.
Also I would not like to introduce a new billing plan and let customers upgrade, because that would break their app-workflow since they would need to re-opt in to the new price and upgrade (I'd like to prevent handling all sorts of cases, e.g. when a customer declines the upgrade etc.).
In https://developer.paypal.com/docs/multiparty/subscriptions/customize/update-plan-pricing I found undocumented options like this:
{
...
"roll_out_strategy": {
"effective_time": "2019-02-10T21:20:49Z",
"process_change_from": "NEXT_PAYMENT"
}
I that something you could explain? Is that something I could use? I failed to find ANY information on that.
Thanks for your reply
