Payments, unpaid checkout, and storefront polish

13 Nov 2026 · v1.6.18

Settings → Payments (Stripe online and QR), unpaid online checkout, storefront polish, and a clearer Settings layout.

New

Settings → Payments — Integration is renamed Payments. Connect Stripe, enable QR code payment in store, configure manual / write-down methods, and optional unpaid online checkout in one place. The old Integration URL redirects here
Online — Manual — optional unpaid cart checkout (for example “Pay later”). Customers place an order without card payment; staff mark it paid or cancel it from the order. Optional payment instructions go on the unpaid order email
QR code payment — in-store card collect via Stripe Checkout on the customer’s phone (POS, deposits, gift cards, booking settle). Toggle under Payments → In store — Integrated
Payment icons — show selected card / wallet marks in the redesigned storefront footer (Settings → Design)
Product SKUs — optional SKU on products and variations, used across admin screens. Variations without their own SKU become product-sku:option
Sold out badge — out-of-stock products show a sold out badge on the storefront
Duplicate URL helper — clearer feedback when a product URL is already in use
Gloss and grit — Theme colour finishes for a high-gloss or textured look (alongside existing colour mode options)
Policies in Pages — policy content moves into the Pages block builder (migrated from Content). Edit under Settings → Pages → Policies

Square Point of Sale app removed — in-store card collect no longer opens the Square POS app. Use QR code payment (Stripe) or manual methods instead. This integration was removed due to limitations in the Square API
Card payments are Stripe — online cart Checkout, deposit payment links, gift card purchases, and in-store QR all use Stripe. PayPal checkout is no longer used
Settings layout — System folds into General; Booking form and Consent form combine under Forms with live previews; Content, Design, and Theme each have a clearer job (SEO/banner vs branding/cart/footer vs colours/fonts/CSS)
Pages menu and footer — separately choose Show in main menu and Show in footer. Policies sits in the normal footer link list and can be reordered with other pages (Home stays first)
Fulfillment owns shipping enable — turn shipping on and edit option name / cart message under Settings → Fulfillment; Shipping methods is rates and countries. Cart messages also include the Delivery / Collect prompt

Form and page builders — better previews and UI when editing forms and page blocks
Bookings — calendar and related booking screens layout polish
Contact notes — expand button for a larger notes editor on the client card
Testimonials — chevron controls instead of the previous style
Order list columns — Channel is the sale venue (Online, In-store, Gift card, Booking settlement). Status is money/lifecycle (Unpaid, Paid, …). Fulfillment is path/progress (Delivery, Collect, Ready, Digital, …). Payment method stays on the order tenders
Sales, customers, and royalties — dated by when full payment was received (final tender), not place-order time, so unpaid → mark-paid does not rewrite earlier periods
Payment labelling — clearer tender names on receipts and payment screens (Online (Stripe), QR code payment, Balance due for unpaid orders)
