subscription-integration

Subscription billing integration requires using the Dodo Payments SDK or API calls to manage products, initiate checkout sessions, and wire up webhook handlers responding to lifecycle events. This provides automated end-to-end subscription management without custom boilerplate.

Handling subscription upgrades and downgrades with proration is managed through Dodo Payments API calls. The integration supports plan changes with automatic proration calculations, enabling seamless tier transitions for SaaS platforms and metered usage billing.

Checkout sessions and free trials are set up by creating a subscription product via the Dodo Payments SDK, then initiating a checkout session for a customer. This automates trial periods, renewals, and grants or revokes access based on subscription status.

Subscription lifecycle management requires handling webhook events like subscription.active, subscription.renewed, and subscription.cancelled. Wiring up webhook handlers to these events automates access provisioning, recurring billing, and cancellations across the application.

Metered usage and on-demand billing are fully supported by the Dodo Payments subscription integration. It enables usage-based charges for SaaS platforms alongside standard subscription features like trials and plan changes, managed via SDK or API calls.

The subscription integration requires no external dependencies. It operates using the Dodo Payments SDK or direct API calls to manage products, checkout sessions, and webhooks, providing developer-friendly patterns for both server-side and client-side implementation.
