Suspending and Restoring Billing Customers

Temporarily freeze all billing for a customer

Suspending a billing customer pauses all billing activity — triggers stop firing, Pay Now links are disabled, and new enrollments cannot be created. This is useful when investigating a payment dispute, handling a temporary hold, or freezing billing for any reason. Suspension is reversible — nothing is cancelled or deleted.

Steps

Open the Billing Customer

Navigate to Operations > Edge > Billing Customers and open the customer you want to suspend.

Click Suspend

Click Suspend Customer. A confirmation dialog explains what will happen.

Confirm Suspension

Confirm the suspension. The customer status changes to `suspended`. Edge fires a `billing_customer.suspended` webhook event.

Understand What Suspension Does

While suspended: all trigger enrollments are frozen (status unchanged but triggers will not fire), existing invoices remain visible but Pay Now is disabled, new enrollments cannot be created, and subscription billing is paused. No data is deleted.

Restore the Customer

When ready, open the suspended billing customer and click Restore Customer. Confirm the restoration.

Verify Restored State

The customer status returns to `active`. All previously frozen enrollments resume their prior state — active enrollments become active again, paused ones stay paused. Billing resumes as normal.

Result

The billing customer is restored and all billing activity resumes. Suspension is a temporary hold — nothing is lost.

Warning: Suspension freezes enrollments, it does not cancel them. When you restore the customer, enrollments pick up where they left off. If you want to permanently stop billing, cancel the individual enrollments or subscriptions before suspending.
