# Adds support for the Billie payment method for invoices and subscriptions ## What’s new Adds support for passing `billie` in `payment_settings.payment_method_types` when creating or updating an [Invoice](https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/create.md?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create-payment_settings-payment_method_types) or [Subscription](https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/create.md?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create_subscription-payment_settings-payment_method_types) with [collection_method](https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object.md?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#invoice_object-collection_method) set to `send_invoice`. ## Impact If your invoice and subscription integrations use `payment_settings.payment_method_types` and `send_invoice`, you can include `billie` to let customers pay with Billie on the **Hosted Invoice** page of the customer portal. See [Configure payment methods for invoices](https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/payment-methods.md) for enablement guidance in the Dashboard and API. Billie doesn’t support invoices or subscriptions set to `charge_automatically`. ## Changes #### REST API | Value | Change | Enums | | --- | --- | --- | | `billie` | Added | [Invoice#update.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_invoice-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Invoice#create.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Subscription#update.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_subscription-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Subscription#create.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create_subscription-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Invoice.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#invoice_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Subscription.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#subscription_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types) | #### Ruby This change does not affect the Ruby SDK. #### Python | Value | Change | Enums | | --- | --- | --- | | `billie` | Added | [InvoiceModifyParamsPaymentSetting.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_invoice-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [InvoiceCreateParamsPaymentSetting.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [SubscriptionModifyParamsPaymentSetting.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_subscription-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [SubscriptionCreateParamsPaymentSetting.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create_subscription-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Invoice.PaymentSetting.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#invoice_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Subscription.PaymentSetting.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#subscription_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types) | #### PHP | Value | Change | Enums | | --- | --- | --- | | `billie` | Added | [Invoice.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#invoice_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Subscription.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#subscription_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types) | #### Java | Value | Change | Enums | | --- | --- | --- | | `billie` | Added | [InvoiceUpdateParams.payment_settings.paymentMethodTypes](/api/invoices/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_invoice-payment_settings-paymentMethodTypes), [InvoiceCreateParams.payment_settings.paymentMethodTypes](/api/invoices/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create-payment_settings-paymentMethodTypes), [SubscriptionUpdateParams.payment_settings.paymentMethodTypes](/api/subscriptions/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_subscription-payment_settings-paymentMethodTypes), [SubscriptionCreateParams.payment_settings.paymentMethodTypes](/api/subscriptions/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create_subscription-payment_settings-paymentMethodTypes) | #### Node.js | Value | Change | Enums | | --- | --- | --- | | `billie` | Added | [InvoiceUpdateParams.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_invoice-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [InvoiceCreateParams.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [SubscriptionUpdateParams.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/update?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#update_subscription-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [SubscriptionCreateParams.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/create?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#create_subscription-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Invoice.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/invoices/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#invoice_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types), [Subscription.payment_settings.payment_method_types](/api/subscriptions/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#subscription_object-payment_settings-payment_method_types) | #### Go | Value | Change | Enums | | --- | --- | --- | | `billie` | Added | [InvoicePaymentSettings.PaymentMethodTypes](/api/invoices/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#invoice_object-payment_settings-PaymentMethodTypes), [SubscriptionPaymentSettings.PaymentMethodTypes](/api/subscriptions/object?api-version=2026-08-26.dahlia#subscription_object-payment_settings-PaymentMethodTypes) | #### .NET This change does not affect the .NET SDK. ## Upgrade #### REST API 1.
