payment_settingsobjectoptional

pending_invoice_item_intervalobjectoptional
Specifies an interval for how often to bill for any pending invoice items. It is analogous to calling [Create an invoice](/api/invoices/create) for the given subscription at the specified interval.
pending_setup_intentstringoptional
You can use this [SetupIntent](https://docs.stripe.com/api/setup_intents) to collect user authentication when creating a subscription without immediate payment or updating a subscription's payment method, allowing you to optimize for off-session payments. Learn more in the [SCA Migration Guide](https://docs.stripe.com/billing/migration/strong-customer-authentication#scenario-2).
pending_updateobjectoptional
If specified, [pending updates](https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/pending-updates) that will be applied to the subscription once the `latest_invoice` has been paid.
presentment_detailsobjectoptional
schedulestringoptional
The schedule attached to the subscription
start_dateintegerrequired
Date when the subscription was first created. The date might differ from the `created` date due to backdating.
statusstringrequired
Possible values are `incomplete`, `incomplete_expired`, `trialing`, `active`, `past_due`, `canceled`, `unpaid`, or `paused`. For `collection_method=charge_automatically` a subscription moves into `incomplete` if the initial payment attempt fails. A subscription in this status can only have metadata and default_source updated. Once the first invoice is paid, the subscription moves into an `active` status. If the first invoice is not paid within 23 hours, the subscription transitions to `incomplete_expired`. This is a terminal status, the open invoice will be voided and no further invoices will be generated. A subscription that is currently in a trial period is `trialing` and moves to `active` when the trial period is over. A subscription can only enter a `paused` status [when a trial ends without a payment method](https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/trials#create-free-trials-without-payment). A `paused` subscription doesn't generate invoices and can be resumed after your customer adds their payment method. The `paused` status is different from [pausing collection](https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/pause-payment), which still generates invoices and leaves the subscription's status unchanged. If subscription `collection_method=charge_automatically`, it becomes `past_due` when payment is required but cannot be paid (due to failed payment or awaiting additional user actions). Once Stripe has exhausted all payment retry attempts, the subscription will become `canceled` or `unpaid` (depending on your subscriptions settings). If subscription `collection_method=send_invoice` it becomes `past_due` when its invoice is not paid by the due date, and `canceled` or `unpaid` if it is still not paid by an additional deadline after that. Note that when a subscription has a status of `unpaid`, no subsequent invoices will be attempted (invoices will be created, but then immediately automatically closed). After receiving updated payment information from a customer, you may choose to reopen and pay their closed invoices.
