Per Team User Subscription in Laravel Spark

If you want the ability to charge a team owner based on how many members their team has, like $10/user/month, then you utilize the Laravel Cashier functionality of incrementing the quantity.

You listen for when a new team member is added and you increase the quantity of the subscription by the amount of users and also listen for when a team member is removed to downsize charges. - Not Braintree Compatible

Within EventServiceProvider.php

'Laravel\Spark\Events\Teams\TeamMemberAdded' => [
    'App\Listeners\UpdatePerUserCharge'
],

'Laravel\Spark\Events\Teams\TeamMemberRemoved' => [
    'App\Listeners\UpdatePerUserCharge'
],

And add a new listener

<?php

namespace App\Listeners;

class UpdatePerUserCharge
{
    public function handle($event)
    {
        $userCount = $event->team->users()->count();

        $event->team->subscription()->updateQuantity($userCount);
    }
}

Here is an idea: kick up a notification after you update the quantity ;)

@impeto I had that in there but took it out to keep it simple. :)

You should also handle TeamMemberRemoved. Basically the same Code in the handle function. Else you charge eventually to much :)

@Max-Hutschenreiter good catch, I subscribed the same listener to both events

What happens when the team owner adds 5 users and removes them 20 days later. What will be billed in that case?

@dpde its pro-rated on stripes side. Stripe will see that they used the subscription x 5 for 20 days and x1 for the remainder.

Hint: That does not work with Braintree service, because Braintree does not support a quantity.

@rokde updated the description. thanks

If you start with a fresh install there's no users or teams and this listener will choke registration process. I tried to add null checks with no luck...

@kmukku you can just wrap the code in your listener like:

        if ($event->team->subscription() != null) {
            $event->team->subscription()->updateQuantity($userCount);
        }

Accounts can have multiple teams, so how do you denote for which team the user is billed for? If I have a sass company where I want to charge a company $10 per user per month and then let that company create teams for various permissions issues, how do I decide which of those teams I am billing for?
