  "details": "From API version 2026-09-30.endive, creating a Checkout Session with payment_method_types returns a 400 error. Stripe replaces it with dynamic payment methods, excluded_payment_method_types, or the new allowed_payment_method_types, which filters out incompatible types instead of failing.\n\nBefore moving to 2026-09-30.endive, stop sending payment_method_types when creating Checkout Sessions. Use dynamic payment methods (manage them in the Dashboard), excluded_payment_method_types to drop some, or allowed_payment_method_types to list the ones you accept.",
