# Pause subscription billing

`POST /api/billing/pause`

Pauses billing for a 30/60/90 day window. Eligibility: rolling 6-month
cooldown anchored on the org's `last_paused_at`.

## Request body

- PauseSubscriptionRequest
  - `duration_days` 'days30' | 'days60' | 'days90', required — Pause subscription duration. The cancel modal's `RadioGroup` posts one of these enum variants verbatim — no integer parsing at the API boundary, the type is the contract.

## Response `200`

Subscription paused

- ApiResponseString
  - `data` string — The result payload. Omitted on failure.
  - `error` string, nullable — Human-readable failure message. Omitted on success.
  - `meta` ApiMeta, required — API metadata included in all responses
    - `api_version` integer, required — API version (integer, increments on breaking changes)
    - `server_version` string, required — Server version (semver)
  - `success` boolean, required — `true` when the request succeeded. `false` responses carry `error` instead of `data`.

## Other responses

- `400` — Ineligible or billing not enabled
