Facts read from this source

• Proration formula Report an error

  “Lago calculates the prorated charge as days remaining in the period, divided by total days in the period, multiplied by the plan's monthly fee.”

• Proration example Report an error

  “a customer who starts a new $29/month plan on day 9 of a 30-day period is charged about $21.27 for the rest of that period (22 / 30 x $29), before tax.”

• Calendar billing renewal Report an error

  “For calendar billing, the renewal date is always anchored to the first of the month regardless of when the new plan was activated. A subscription activated April 9 renews May 1.”

• Anniversary billing new external id Report an error

  “For anniversary billing, a new subscription created mid-cycle anchors to its own creation date, so a subscription created April 9 renews May 9, and the anchor does not carry over from the previous plan — but only when a different external_id is used.”

• Same external id upgrade Report an error

  “If the same external_id is used, Lago treats the request as an upgrade and preserves the original anniversary date.”

• Same external id no explicit termination Report an error

  “If you use the same external_id, Lago automatically handles the transition and you do not need to explicitly terminate the old subscription first.”

• Different external id concurrent Report an error

  “If you use a different external_id, Lago creates a separate subscription and does not automatically terminate the old one; both run concurrently until the old one is explicitly terminated, which may generate a final invoice or credit note.”

• Pay in advance credit note condition Report an error

  “For pay-in-advance plans, terminating issues a credit note for unused days only if a prior invoice exists for that subscription. A backdated subscription that never generated an advance invoice won't produce a credit note.”

• Termination day counts as used Report an error

  “The day of termination counts as used, and the credit covers the days after that.”

• Avoid proration method Report an error

  “To charge the full monthly fee from a specific date instead, terminate the current subscription and create a new one on the desired plan starting today. This sets a clean billing anchor and charges the full fee from day one.”

• Documentation status Report an error

  “This article reflects guidance drawn from customer case resolutions. It is not officially supported documentation and may not apply to all situations.”
