A Subscription is the record that links a tenant to a plan. It tracks billing periods, payment status, trial dates, and seat counts. Every status change is recorded to an immutable event log.

Event Sourcing

Every subscription status change is written to subscription_events. This gives you a complete audit trail: 
{
  "event_type": "subscription.activated",
  "previous_status": "trialing",
  "new_status": "active",
  "occurred_at": "2025-02-01T00:00:00Z",
  "metadata": {
    "stripe_event_id": "evt_...",
    "invoice_id": "in_..."
  }
}

​
Checking Subscription Status

Use the React SDK hook on the frontend: 
import { useSubscription } from 'crovver-react';

function Dashboard() {
  const { isActive, plan, subscription } = useSubscription();

  if (!isActive) return <UpgradePrompt />;

  return <App trialEndsAt={subscription?.trialEndsAt} />;
}
Or query the API from your backend: 
GET /api/public/subscriptions/status?publicKey=pk_live_...&tenantId=workspace_123
