# getUserBillingSubscription()

> Billing is currently in Beta and its APIs are experimental and may undergo breaking changes. To mitigate potential disruptions, we recommend [pinning](https://clerk.com/docs/pinning.md) your SDK and `clerk-js` package versions.

Retrieves a user's Billing Subscription. Returns a [`BillingSubscription`](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/types/billing-subscription.md).

```ts
function getUserBillingSubscription(userId: string): Promise<BillingSubscription>
```

## Example

> Using `clerkClient` varies based on the SDK you're using. Refer to the [overview](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/overview.md) for usage details, including guidance on [how to access the `userId` and other properties](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/overview.md#example-get-the-user-id-and-other-properties).

```tsx
const userId = 'user_123'

const subscription = await clerkClient.billing.getUserBillingSubscription(userId)
```

## Backend API (BAPI) endpoint

This method in the SDK is a wrapper around the BAPI endpoint `GET /users/{user_id}/billing/subscription`. See the [BAPI reference](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend-api/tag/billing/GET/users/%7Buser_id%7D/billing/subscription){{ target: '_blank' }} for more information.
