If a customer has two default subscriptions, only the most recently added subscription will be used by Cashier even though both would be synced with your application's database. If your application offers multiple subscriptions that use different names, only one type of subscription may be added through the Stripe dashboard.įinally, you should always make sure to only add one active subscription per type of subscription offered by your application.

This subscription name is only for internal application usage and is not meant to be shown to users. If your application only offers a single subscription, you might call this default or primary. The first argument passed to the newSubscription method should be the internal name of the subscription.
