Billing entities allow an organization to manage different billing configurations.
This feature is currently in beta and available to a limited number of users. To request access, please contact us.
Managing multiple billing entities is a premium feature. Contact your account manager to enable it for your organization.
Billing entities let you manage your end customers under distinct billing configurations.
To create a billing entity, follow these steps:
Using the user interface:
ℹ️ The first billing entity created in your organization is considered the default.
Billing entity settings only apply to the customers assigned to that specific entity. More information is available in the following sections.
You can update all billing entity information except the code after creation.
To edit a billing entity:
Using the user interface:
Deleting a billing entity is not available via the Dashboard or API.
To delete a billing entity, please contact the Lago team directly.
When creating a customer, you can assign it to a billing entity in two ways:
billing_entity_code
in the customer creation payload.If no billing entity is specified via API, the customer will automatically be assigned to the default billing entity to avoid breaking changes.
⚠️ A customer can only be linked to one billing entity.
If you need the same customer under a different billing entity, we recommend creating a new customer.
Once a customer is linked to a subscription, invoice, coupon, or wallet, you cannot change their billing entity.
