### Subscription schedules support

You can use [subscription schedules](https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules.md) with Managed Payments subscriptions.

### Free trials without collecting a payment method

Managed Payments on Checkout supports [free trials without collecting a payment method](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/free-trials.md?payment-ui=stripe-hosted#free-trials-without-payment-method). Ahead of the trial end, customers receive an email with a link to a hosted form where they can provide payment details.

### Adaptive Pricing support for one-time and subscription payments

[Adaptive Pricing](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/currencies/localize-prices/adaptive-pricing.md) is automatically enabled at checkout to localize pricing into the customer’s local currency.

### API changes 

- You can set the [payment_method_collection](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create.md#create_checkout_session-payment_method_collection) parameter to `if_required` to allow customers to sign up for a free trial without a payment method.
- You can use the [payment_behavior](https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/update.md#update_subscription-payment_behavior) parameter when updating Managed Payments subscriptions.
- Managed Payments invoices return the [hosted_invoice_url](https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object.md#invoice_object-hosted_invoice_url) in `Invoice` objects.

### One-time payments support

You can accept one-time payments for digital products using Managed Payments. For one-time payment instructions, see the [Set up Managed Payments](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/managed-payments/set-up.md) and [Update a Checkout integration](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/managed-payments/update-checkout.md) pages.

### In-app payments support

Managed Payments has a Checkout UI for mobile that you can use for in-app payment flows. To accept payments without sending your customer to a browser outside of your mobile app, see [Mobile app payments](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/managed-payments/set-up-mobile.md).

### Link account requirement removed

Customers don’t need to sign in or register for a [Link](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/link.md) account to check out with Managed Payments. Receipt emails contain a URL that allows customers to associate a specific  transaction with their Link account, where they can manage their subscription. Customers also don’t need to provide a phone number during checkout.

### API changes 

- The [customer_update[address]](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create.md#create_checkout_session-customer_update-address) and [customer_update[name]](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create.md#create_checkout_session-customer_update-name) parameters are no longer available when [creating a Checkout Session](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create.md) with Managed Payments enabled.

  Managed Payments requires that your customer has a name and a valid billing address in order to calculate sales tax, and always updates the [Customer](https://docs.stripe.com/api/customers/object.md) with the name and billing address collected during the Checkout Session.

- Products with the following [product tax codes](https://docs.stripe.com/api/products/object.md#product_object-tax_code) are now eligible to use with Managed Payments:

  - `txcd_10701400`: Website Information Services - Business Use

### Support for Radar for Fraud Teams

Managed Payments supports [Radar for Fraud Teams](https://docs.stripe.com/radar.md), which you can use to define [fraud prevention rules](https://docs.stripe.com/radar/rules.md), such as blocking card payments from certain countries, or [always requesting 3D Secure authentication](https://docs.stripe.com/radar/rules.md#request-3d-secure). These rules apply in addition to the fraud prevention already provided by Managed Payments.

## August 13, 2025

### Refunding withheld sales tax

Stripe only keeps the original sales tax amount on refunded transactions where required. The **Payment breakdown** section of the transaction shows the refunded sales tax amount. Your customers aren’t affected by this behavior.
