Changing Plans
After a user is subscribed to your application, they may occasionally want to change to a new
subscription plan. To swap a user to a new subscription, use the swap method. For example, we may
easily switch a user to the premium subscription:
.
1 $user = App\User::find(1);
2
3 $user->subscription('premium')->swap();
If the user is on trial, the trial period will be maintained. Also, if a “quantity” exists for the
subscription, that quantity will also be maintained. When swapping plans, you may also use the
prorate method to indicate that the charges should be pro-rated. In addition, you may use the
swapAndInvoice method to immediately invoice the user for the plan change:
.
1 $user->subscription('premium')
2 ->prorate()
3 ->swapAndInvoice();
Subscription Quantity
Sometimes subscriptions are affected by “quantity”. For example, your application might charge $10
per month per user on an account. To easily increment or decrement your subscription quantity,
use the increment and decrement methods:
.
1 $user = User::find(1);
2
3 $user->subscription()->increment();
4
5 // Add five to the subscription's current quantity...
6 $user->subscription()->increment(5);
7
8 $user->subscription()->decrement();
9
10 // Subtract five to the subscription's current quantity...
11 $user->subscription()->decrement(5);
