Where can I view the next billing date in Chargebee?
When my customers will be charged for a recurring subscription?
Summary
In Chargebee, the renewal of the subscription or the next billing date depends on your customer's plan's billing frequency and date/time of subscription activation. The billing date/time is a subscription specific attribute.
Day based billing: If you have configured a monthly plan, then your subscription will renew on the mid-night on the date on which the monthly renewal starts.
Milli-second based billing: If you have configured a monthly plan say on 1st Jan, 15.00.00 hrs, then your subscription will renew on 1st Feb, 15.00.00 hrs.
Info: If your billing date is on the last date of the month you will be charged on every last date of the following month.
For example: If your billing date is on 31st August, your next billing date will be on 30th September relatively 28th/29th in February.
