Release Notes is our monthly highlight of our great features coming out on the FastSpring platform so you’ll be able to pick up and go with the latest features for your store.
New Welcome Dashboard and Onboarding Experience For Free Trials
In an effort to improve the onboarding experience of new sellers and to deliver more valuable information to our existing sellers, we’ve launched a new version of our welcome dashboard. This is the dashboard you will see when you sign up for our free trial.
With this launch, we’ve created two new widgets to better help sellers understand the value FastSpring delivers from day one.
Dashboard Update #1: Checkout Preview Widget
First, we have enabled Checkout Preview which, with branding and localization customization, you’ll be able to see what your checkout can look like with FastSpring right from our dashboard.
Dashboard Update #2: Total Cost of Ownership Calculator
Second, we’ve enabled our Total Cost of Ownership Calculator. With this calculator, you’ll be able to better understand how FastSpring saves you money in comparison to DIY providers like Stripe. We encourage you to take a look and reach out to our sales team to better understand exactly how we can help your business save money.
Beyond these two widgets, we’ve also added blocks to provide additional valuable information such as: new product updates, customer stories, thought leadership, developer documentation, and much more.
New and Improved Webhook Status Reporting
As we go into 2023, we are striving to deliver improvements to make our platform more developer friendly. To this end, we’ve released a new Webhook Log which displays rich information for each of your webhook events. Now, understand which webhook events belong to, what ID it’s associated with, how many attempts were made, and much more right from the FastSpring platform.
Not only will you get an overview, but you’ll also be able to view detailed information about the event, including its JSON payload and response history. Further, you can filter based on criteria like event type, status, creation date, and more to better streamline your review of each webhook you’re using. Want to know more? Check out our documentation here.
