Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/issues/4267

Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

To Reproduce

`### Version

  • better-auth: 1.3.7
  • @better-auth/stripe: (latest)

Repro Steps

Server-side:

const subscriptions = await auth.api.listActiveSubscriptions({
  query: { referenceId: "123" },
  headers: await headers(),
});`



### Current vs. Expected behavior

**Expected Behavior**
	•      Both server-side and client-side should expose Stripe subscription methods (e.g. listActiveSubscriptions, subscription.list, etc.).
	•	Or, the documentation should clearly specify that Stripe subscription APIs are only available on the client.

**Actual Behavior**
	•	listActiveSubscriptions does not exist on auth.api
	•	TypeScript error: Property 'listActiveSubscriptions' does not exist on type 'Api'.


### What version of Better Auth are you using?

Hi @seanlucakrueger! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the better-auth team.

Stripe subscription methods like listActiveSubscriptions, upgradeSubscription, and others are intended to be available on auth.api (server-side) when the Stripe plugin is registered with subscription.enabled: true in your config. The code and docs confirm these endpoints are merged onto auth.api and should be callable on both server and client when set up correctly (source).

If you're seeing a TypeScript error that listActiveSubscriptions does not exist on auth.api, the most common causes are:

  • Version mismatch between better-auth and @better-auth/stripe. Both packages must be on the exact same version (source).
  • Inconsistent or incomplete Stripe plugin config, especially in the plans array (all plans must have the same shape) (source).
  • Not clearing node_modules and reinstalling after updating versions or config (source).

To resolve:

  1. Make sure both better-auth and @better-auth/stripe are on version 1.3.7.
  2. Double-check your Stripe plugin config for subscription: { enabled: true, plans: [...] } and ensure all plans are consistent.
  3. Delete node_modules and your lockfile, then reinstall dependencies.

If you follow these steps, the Stripe subscription methods should appear on auth.api as expected. If you still see issues, check for TypeScript type inference problems or plugin registration errors in your build output.
