Stripe: Manually Create Subscription for a Buyer
If a buyer sent you a one-time payment through Stripe, you can turn that into an ongoing subscription yourself, without asking them to pay again from scratch. From within your Stripe dashboard, you can create a subscription for that customer and choose the product you want them to subscribe to. In this article we’ll walk you through the steps to manually create a subscription for a buyer who previously sent you a one-time payment.
Here is a GIF showing where you can do that in your Stripe dashboard:
In your Stripe account,
Go to Billing > Subscriptions
Click Create New
Select a customer who previously sent you a one-time payment
Select a product that you wish to subscribe the customer to
Choose a payment method (depending on your settings, you may have to start with it sending an invoice to the customer instead of it auto-charging the customer)
Once you’ve selected the customer, chosen the product and picked a payment method, the subscription is set up. Depending on your settings, you may need to start with an invoice sent to the customer instead of an automatic charge. From there, your customer will be billed or receive an invoice at the frequency specified in the original product. If you have any questions about the process, our support team is always here and happy to help, so don’t hesitate to reach out.
