plan

You can now model subscriptions more flexibly using the [Prices API](https://stripe.com/docs/api#prices). It replaces the Plans API and is backwards compatible to simplify your migration. Plans define the base price, currency, and billing cycle for recurring purchases of products. [Products](https://stripe.com/docs/api#products) help you track inventory or provisioning, and plans help you track pricing. Different physical goods or levels of service should be represented by products, and pricing options should be represented by plans. This approach lets you change prices without having to change your provisioning scheme. For example, you might have a single "gold" product that has plans for $10/month, $100/year, €9/month, and €90/year.

active boolean
required

Whether the plan can be used for new purchases.

aggregate_usage string
optionalnullable

Specifies a usage aggregation strategy for plans of `usage_type=metered`. Allowed values are `sum` for summing up all usage during a period, `last_during_period` for using the last usage record reported within a period, `last_ever` for using the last usage record ever (across period bounds) or `max` which uses the usage record with the maximum reported usage during a period. Defaults to `sum`.

amount integer
optionalnullable

The unit amount in %s to be charged, represented as a whole integer if possible. Only set if `billing_scheme=per_unit`.

amount_decimal string (decimal)
optionalnullable

The unit amount in %s to be charged, represented as a decimal string with at most 12 decimal places. Only set if `billing_scheme=per_unit`.

billing_scheme string
required

Describes how to compute the price per period. Either `per_unit` or `tiered`. `per_unit` indicates that the fixed amount (specified in `amount`) will be charged per unit in `quantity` (for plans with `usage_type=licensed`), or per unit of total usage (for plans with `usage_type=metered`). `tiered` indicates that the unit pricing will be computed using a tiering strategy as defined using the `tiers` and `tiers_mode` attributes.

created integer (unix-time)
required

Time at which the object was created. Measured in seconds since the Unix epoch.

currency string
required

Three-letter [ISO currency code](https://www.iso.org/iso-4217-currency-codes.html), in lowercase. Must be a [supported currency](https://stripe.com/docs/currencies).

id string
required

Unique identifier for the object.

interval string
required

The frequency at which a subscription is billed. One of `day`, `week`, `month` or `year`.

interval_count integer
required

The number of intervals (specified in the `interval` attribute) between subscription billings. For example, `interval=month` and `interval_count=3` bills every 3 months.

livemode boolean
required

Has the value `true` if the object exists in live mode or the value `false` if the object exists in test mode.

metadata object
optionalnullable

Set of [key-value pairs](https://stripe.com/docs/api/metadata) that you can attach to an object. This can be useful for storing additional information about the object in a structured format.

nickname string
optionalnullable

A brief description of the plan, hidden from customers.

object string
required

String representing the object's type. Objects of the same type share the same value.

product
optionalnullable

The product whose pricing this plan determines.

tiers array
optional

Each element represents a pricing tier. This parameter requires `billing_scheme` to be set to `tiered`. See also the documentation for `billing_scheme`.

tiers_mode string
optionalnullable

Defines if the tiering price should be `graduated` or `volume` based. In `volume`-based tiering, the maximum quantity within a period determines the per unit price. In `graduated` tiering, pricing can change as the quantity grows.

transform_usage
optionalnullable

Apply a transformation to the reported usage or set quantity before computing the amount billed. Cannot be combined with `tiers`.

trial_period_days integer
optionalnullable

Default number of trial days when subscribing a customer to this plan using [`trial_from_plan=true`](https://stripe.com/docs/api#create_subscription-trial_from_plan).

usage_type string
required

Configures how the quantity per period should be determined. Can be either `metered` or `licensed`. `licensed` automatically bills the `quantity` set when adding it to a subscription. `metered` aggregates the total usage based on usage records. Defaults to `licensed`.
