This documentation group focuses on **Stripe Subscriptions**, providing comprehensive guidance on setting up, managing, and customizing recurring payment systems.

The core of this documentation revolves around the **Stripe Subscriptions API**, detailing how to:

*   **Build and manage subscriptions:** This includes understanding the subscription lifecycle, creating subscriptions, and handling recurring payments.
*   **Configure pricing models:** Explore various pricing strategies such as flat-rate, per-seat, tiered, and usage-based pricing.
*   **Customize subscription behavior:** Learn to set up billing cycles, configure trial offers, apply coupons and discounts, and manage subscription modifications (including prorations, pending updates, and changing prices).
*   **Handle subscription lifecycle events:** Understand how to cancel, pause, and backdate subscriptions, as well as manage payment collection.
*   **Integrate with other Stripe features:** Discover how to use Entitlements for feature access, leverage Stripe Tax for tax collection, and utilize webhooks for real-time event notifications.
*   **Support diverse payment methods:** The documentation covers integrating a wide array of payment methods for subscriptions, including common options like credit cards, bank debits (ACH, SEPA, Bacs, BECS), and regional payment methods (Pix, iDEAL, Boleto, Cash App Pay, Kakao Pay, Naver Pay, TWINT, Revolut Pay, Amazon Pay, PayPal, Klarna, PayTo, and local Korean and Nigerian cards).
*   **Migrate existing subscriptions:** Guidance is provided on migrating subscriptions to Stripe using both toolkits and APIs.
*   **Advanced subscription management:** This includes features like subscription schedules, mixed-interval subscriptions, and managing subscriptions on iOS.

The documentation also touches upon related concepts like **Entitlements** for managing product feature access based on subscription status, and **SaaS integration** best practices.
