You're reading one of our monthly roundup posts! At the end of each month, we share a quick summary of smaller updates and improvements that help shape a better FastSpring experience.

Here is what we have for August:

• Improved accessibility of embedded and popup checkout payment methods, including keyboard navigation and 400% zoom support
• Updated error messaging across checkout and quote forms to improve accessibility and screen reader support
• Added CAPTCHA protection to popup and embedded checkouts to help prevent bot-based payment abuse
• Refreshed the Home page search bar UI for both "results found" and "no results" views
• Enabled manual-to-automatic renewal switching in the account management portal
• Decoupled subscription renewal behavior between initial purchase and rebills for greater seller control
• Improved error validation for the Brazil CPF field to prevent submission of invalid card numbers
• Updated the VAT tax collection rate for B2C digital goods sales in Peru

See you next month! In the meantime, we'll continue to share separate changelog entries for highlighted updates as they become available.

You can now control how payment methods are prioritized during checkout with the new Enable Payment Hierarchy setting.

To enable: Store Settings > Payments > Enable Payment Hierarchy

The setting includes two options:

• Pre-Select Apple Pay for all Apple Devices
  Automatically set Apple Pay as the default payment method for eligible customers.

• Order Geo-Based Payment Method
  Prioritize payment methods based on the customer’s location, so the most relevant option appears first.

FastSpring now supports immediate mid-cycle subscription changes as part of renewal invoicing workflows.

You can use this workflow when subscription changes should take effect right away. For example, you might increase the quantity partway through a billing cycle or switch to a different plan immediately.

FastSpring will automatically apply prorated credit for unused time on the original plan and calculate prorated charges for the remainder of the billing period on the new plan.

👉 Learn more about this workflow

You can now transfer up to 20 active subscriptions from a source account to a target account using the new /subscriptions/transfer endpoint.

This endpoint is designed for account merge or cleanup workflows and can only be used to transfer subscriptions between accounts that belong to the same site or store.

Endpoint: POST /subscriptions/transfer

We’ve added support for four new currencies, allowing even more customers to pay in their local currency:

• 🇭🇺 Hungarian Forint (HUF)

These additions help localize the purchase experience for customers in these regions by improving trust, conversion rates, and convenience.
