I want to create a plan from my application on stripe. The scenario is that users are charged with different prices as recurring payments. So, that is why I want to create plan for each user.
I am using laravel 5 and using "laravel/cashier": "~5.0"
laravel/cashier just doesn't have this functionality baked in. You aren't out of luck though as it is easy to just use Stripe's API which should be downloaded as a dependency in your vendor folder. If not you can just download it with composer.
composer require stripe/stripe-php 2.*
You can use it with
use \Stripe\Plan;
Plan::create(array(
"amount" => 2000,
"interval" => "month",
"name" => "Amazing Gold Plan",
"currency" => "usd",
"id" => "gold")
);

Thanks so much. I learned lots of things by this thread. But for latest cashier and stripe-php versions few thing need to be changed.
My cashier version is 7.0 ("laravel/cashier": "~7.0"
) and it automatically installs stripe-php 5. But some parameters has changed from stripe api. So this code will be working,
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_your_key");
\Stripe\Plan::create(array(
"amount" => 5000,
"interval" => "month",
"product" => array(
"name" => "Bronze standard"
),
"currency" => "eur",
"id" => "bronze-standard"
));
And you can read more in PHP section of stripe api docs...
