Event: subscription.paused

When it fires

A subscription has transitioned from Active (or Trial) into Paused. Recurring billing is suspended; the gateway will not attempt further charges while the subscription is paused.

This event is not fired when a subscription is cancelled — that’s covered by subscription.cancelled.

Headers

data fields

What to do on receipt

1. Verify the signature, dedupe on event.id.
2. Find the customer on your side via memberId.
3. Update their entitlement / access — e.g. flip a paused flag, suppress class booking, hide membership perks.
4. Return 2xx within 10 seconds.

Treat pauses as temporary — the same subscription may transition back to Active via subscription.resumed. Don’t tear down state you’ll need to put back.
