Stripe.js Endive: Elements `paymentMethodTypes` option throws an integration error — use allowedPaymentMethodTypes

Fix

 stripe.elements({
   mode: "payment", amount: 2000, currency: "usd",
-  paymentMethodTypes: ["card"],
+  allowedPaymentMethodTypes: ["card"],
 })

Or drop the option and manage payment methods in the Dashboard. Use the Express Checkout Element instead of the Payment Request Button.

Symptom

Deferred-intent Elements (stripe.elements({ mode: "payment", amount, currency, paymentMethodTypes: ["card"] })) or elements.update({ paymentMethodTypes }) stop working: Stripe.js throws and won't create or update the Elements instance. On @stripe/stripe-js v10 the option is also gone from the types.

Cause

In Endive (2026-09-30), Stripe.js removed support for paymentMethodTypes when creating Elements without an intent, and in elements.update(). Stripe.js versions up to Dahlia still accepted it. @stripe/stripe-js 10.0.0 (2026-10-01): "Removed Elements paymentMethodTypes from types for Endive". The same release also removed the Payment Request Button.

Verify

The Payment Element mounts without a console integration error and shows the expected methods.
