# Dahlia The dahlia is a flowering plant native to Mexico and Central America, prized for its bold, intricate blooms and remarkable variety. A member of the daisy family, it comes in thousands of cultivars ranging from petite pompon flowers to dramatic dinner-plate-sized blossoms, in colors spanning nearly every shade except true blue. Dahlias reward careful tending and bloom from midsummer through fall, making them a favorite in gardens and floral arrangements alike. **Dahlia** is the fourth release in our [flora-named API versioning model](http://stripe.com/blog/introducing-stripes-new-api-release-process). As the first version in the Dahlia release, `2026-03-25.dahlia` introduces both breaking changes and new features—subsequent Dahlia versions will include only additive changes. (Our prior releases were [Acacia](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/acacia.md), [Basil](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/basil.md), and [Clover](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/clover.md): every time we introduce a breaking change version, we move to the next release.) #### March 25, 2026 The March release of Dahlia includes new features in our GA channel, along with several breaking changes: - **Elements and Stripe.js changes**: We made several updates to Stripe Elements and Stripe.js, including the [removal of deprecated methods](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/remove-legacy-stripejs-methods.md) from Stripe.js in favor of equivalent methods with clearer naming and improved functionality, as well as the [renaming of the Checkout initialization method](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/rename-init-checkout-to-init-checkout-elements.md). - **New payment method support**: We added [support for UPI](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/adds-support-for-the-upi-payment-method.md), a real-time payment method in India for accepting one-time and recurring payments. - **Issuing improvements and changes**: You can now [configure a virtual Issuing card](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/issuing-card-lifecycle-controls.md) to automatically be cancelled after making a specified number of payments. - **Checkout Sessions enhancements and changes**: You can now [group and track your Checkout Sessions](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/adds-integration-identifier-parameter-to-checkout-sessions.md) using integration identifiers. We also updated the Checkout Session [UI mode enum values](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/updates-available-checkout-session-ui-modes.md). Further, you can now [configure the billing interval](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/adds-pending-invoice-item-interval-parameter-to-checkout-sessions.md) for pending invoice items when creating subscription-based payments in Checkout Sessions. - **Decimal quantity support for invoices**: We added [support for decimal quantities](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/invoice-items-decimal-quantity.md) with up to 12 decimal places of precision when creating or updating Invoice Items and Invoice Line Items. Our [public preview](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog.md?channel=preview) channel also includes several updates: - **Multicurrency support for payouts**: v2 Payout Methods now [support foreign currencies](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/multicurrency-v2-payout-methods.md) for payouts. - **Batch API operations**: You can now [run API operations in batches](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/batch-jobs-v2-api.md), making it easier to process bulk operations like creating multiple customers, migrating subscriptions, or updating large datasets. - **Azure Event Grid support**: You can now [send Stripe events directly to Azure](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/adds-support-for-azure-event-grid-as-an-event-destination.md) using Azure Event Grid as a new type of destination. - **Ticket sales support in Stripe Tax**: You can now [calculate tax](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/stripe-tax-ticket-sales-event-location.md) based on the event’s location instead of the customer’s location. Also, you can now support event-related US tax registration types and access event-related tax breakdown values. - **Trial offers for subscription items**: We introduced the new Trial Offers API, which allows you to [create and manage trial offers](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia/2026-03-25/trial-offers-on-subscription-items.md) for subscription items. To get started with these updates, review the changelog and [upgrade your API version](https://docs.stripe.com/upgrades.md). # Dahlia [Learn what's changing in Dahlia](https://docs.stripe.com/changelog/dahlia.md) ## 2026-03-25.dahlia ### Checkout enhancements | Title | Affected Products | Breaking change?
