Payment methods
Learn about the supported payment methods for Invoicing.
By default, customers can pay invoices with any of the payment methods that you’ve enabled in your Invoice template. In some situations, there might be restrictions that prevent payment methods from being used for an invoice. For instance, a payment method might only operate in one currency or have limitations on the amount that can be paid. If there’s a limitation on a payment method, Stripe won’t automatically select it for you.

Configure payment methods
You can use the Dashboard or API to add and configure payment methods.
To enable payment methods, you need to activate them in the Invoice default payment methods configuration.
Connect
If you’re a platform using Connect, you can manage the invoice payment methods of your connected accounts in the Stripe Dashboard:
- Go to Settings > Billing > Invoice .
- In the Default payment methods section, click the Connected accounts payment method configuration drop-down.
- Select Default to enable Stripe to provide the default configuration of payment methods.
Your connected accounts still have the ability to enable and disable individual payment methods after you enable the default configuration. You can also manage the payment methods of individual connected accounts using the payment method configuration API. If your integration uses dynamic payment methods, you can create your own payment method configuration. To learn more, see Multiple configurations for your Connect accounts. If you create a custom payment method configuration, it displays as an option in the Connected accounts payment method configuration drop-down.
Overdue payments
An invoice is considered overdue when its due date has passed and the invoice hasn’t been paid. By default, Stripe reminds your customer to pay the invoice even after the due date. However, by modifying your Automatic collection settings, you can disable automatic collection on the invoice when it becomes past due.
