How many days before an invoice is due does the invoice.upcoming webhook get called?

Question

The Stripe docs are really ambiguous about this:

https://stripe.com/docs/billing/webhooks

A few days prior to renewal, your site receives an invoice.upcoming event at the webhook endpoint. You can listen for this event to add extra invoice items to a subscription draft invoice.

https://stripe.com/docs/billing/lifecycle

When the subscription approaches its renewal date, an invoice.upcoming event is sent.

Does anyone know roughly how much time is in between the invoice.upcoming webhook and the actual invoice? A "few" days could be anywhere between 2-5 depending on who you ask.

Answer 1

You have the ability to set when invoice.upcoming will be sent in your billing settings.
