I'm attempting to create subscriptions through the Stripe API. I already create the products and items and now need to submit the subscription for the user, but I need to charge the customer for the full price now - no matter which day of the month it is - then charge at the beginning of each month - even if it starts tomorrow.
It looks like I could create a one-off item to charge for now then set up a subscription for the monthly billing cycle, but I'm wondering if I can do it all in one call with the subscription => create function. I do not want to prorate the first month and I cannot see a way to tell it to charge the full price now and set up recurring on the first of each month following. Is there a way to do this?
