Radar now helps prevent free trial abuse with just one click. When enabled, Radar predicts the presence of abusive behavior that violates common trial terms, such as repeated trial signup or missed cancellations, with 90% accuracy.

Adaptive Pricing is now available for subscriptions, allowing businesses to automatically localize prices in 150+ countries while Stripe handles currency conversion. In an A/B test across 1.5 million subscription checkouts, businesses saw 4.7% higher conversion and 5.4% higher LTV per session, on average.

We’re launching the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP), an open standard, internet-native way for agents to pay—co-authored by Tempo and Stripe. Businesses on Stripe can accept payments over MPP in a few lines of code using our PaymentIntents API.

From November 2025 to February 2026, our models detected 6.2x more abusive free trials across the Stripe network. This is part of a broader shift toward first-party fraud, where legitimate users abuse policies by setting up multiple accounts, cycling through free trials, or exploiting refunds.

State-of-the-art LLMs can now solve a majority of scoped coding problems, but it’s an open question whether they can fully autonomously manage software engineering projects. We spent months building evaluation environments to benchmark how well AI agents can create real Stripe integrations.

Together, Metronome and Stripe are building the most flexible and complete billing solution on the market—one that works for everyone, from engineers in a garage figuring out their business model to public companies monetizing at global scale.

Stripe’s users rely on us to calculate tax correctly and quickly, no matter where a transaction happens. Our new jurisdiction resolution system (JRS) is a faster, less resource-intensive solution to the challenging problem of determining tax obligations in places with complicated, overlapping tax jurisdictions.

In this blog post we’ll share an overview of Stripe’s database infrastructure and discuss the design and application of the Data Movement Platform.

Not only are the majority of retailers actively implementing, or have plans to implement, agentic commerce, but many are also moving to a more tactical phase of optimizing their setup—refining their product catalog strategy to launch faster and investing in their own agentic shopping experiences in addition to integrating with third-party agents.

While businesses are rapidly building AI products, monetization remains a challenge. In this post, we share a framework for building a successful pricing strategy with key decision points on charge metrics, billing models, and guardrails.
