🌍 Extended Payment Methods for Alternate Gateways
If you're using a payment gateway other than Stripe, your guests now have access to the same expanded set of payment methods that Stripe users already enjoy.

How it works:

  1. Guest reaches checkout on a booking connected to an alternate gateway

  2. Guest sees the available payment methods: Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Open Banking (EU), ACH (US), UPI (India), plus cards with or without 3DS

  3. Guest completes payment with their preferred method

Benefits:
✅ More payment options for guests, regardless of your gateway
✅ Same flexibility across all your connected gateways
✅ Works automatically, no setup required
✅ Fewer checkout drop-offs from limited payment options


💱 Preferred Dashboard Currency
Managing properties across different countries? You can now set a Preferred Dashboard Currency to standardize your dashboard analytics into a single currency of your choice.

How it works:

  1. Go to your Account Settings

  2. Select your Preferred Dashboard Currency

  3. Your dashboard analytics update to reflect that single currency, even if your listings collect payments in multiple local currencies

Benefits:
✅ One consistent currency across all your reporting
✅ Easier to compare performance across properties in different countries
✅ No manual currency conversion needed
✅ Set once, applies everywhere on your dashboard


📊 Full Financial Visibility in Payment Summaries
Payment Summaries on both the Booking Listings and Booking Details pages now include full charges, including upsells and refunds, alongside the reservation base fee.

How it works:

  1. Open any booking's Payment Summary

  2. View the full breakdown: base fee, upsells, and refunds, all in one place

  3. No need to cross-check other pages for the complete picture

Benefits:
✅ Complete financial overview of every booking, at a glance
✅ No need to dig through multiple pages
✅ Works automatically on every booking


🔔 Non-3DS Transaction Alerts
For alternate payment gateways, you'll now get notified automatically whenever a transaction processes without 3DS authentication, even in setups where it's required.

How it works:

  1. A transaction processes successfully without 3DS authentication

  2. The system automatically sends you a notification

  3. You stay informed of the potential risk exception without having to check manually

Benefits:
✅ Stay ahead of potential risk exceptions
✅ No manual monitoring required
✅ Works automatically on every transaction


🔗 Smart Reservation Linking for Payment Requests & Pages
When creating a new payment request or standalone payment page, you can now link it directly to an existing reservation in one step, avoiding duplicate or disconnected payment entries.

How it works:

  1. Start creating a payment request or page

  2. When prompted, choose to link it to an existing reservation, or keep it unlinked if you prefer

  3. If linked, the charge is created directly within that reservation

Benefits:
✅ Prevents duplicate or disconnected payment entries
✅ Still just as easy to create an unlinked transaction when needed
✅ Keeps all charges organized within the right reservation
