Hi 👋
Unfortunately we cannot provide support for an invite-only beta like this one. It looks like you have already reached out to request an invite. You will need to wait to hear back from the team running this beta.

Ahhh ok, shame. You don't happen to know some of the differences? Since I can't test it, I'm trying to decide if it's worth waiting who-knows-how-long for the invite to be extended, or if we should just implement the old-fashioned way

I'm not familiar with this integration so unfortunately I cannot detail much about how it compares to using Payment Element.

Do you know if I'm wanting to use the payment element to start subscriptions, is tax calculation performed and applied automatically?
(I'm currently using stripe checkout with the stripe-hosted page, and am wanting to switch to a self-hosted ui)

Subscriptions made directly using the API (instead of Stripe Checkout) require additional configuration to collect taxes. You can review how do to this here

Great, thanks! Do you have any documentation also in how to prorate subscription changes? For example, using the checkout page, if you were halfway through a month at say, $20/mo, and you upgrade to a new subscription that's $40/mo, it automatically prorate the month, charging the customer $20. Similar behavior for downgrading. Do I have that correct?
small lichen
Correct. You can review this doc for more details on how to upgrade/downgrade subscriptions and how that affects proration calculations
