The Chargify to Salesforce integration is becoming even more flexible thanks to feedback from our customers over the last few months on data flow enhancements. There is now the option to not sync over trialing accounts from Chargify. If selected, this will allow your subscriptions to flow over to Salesforce after the trial period, when it is active and paid. 

Our goal is to build the Salesforce integration as flexible as possible to accommodate various business and operating models, so you can sync your data that best fits your needs. If you are currently not using the Salesforce integration and are interested, get in touch with your customer success manager today.

Charging based on value is something we believe strongly in and are excited to announce that you can get even more granular with how you price and bill based on events. Previously, it was possible to bill on events and then vary the price based on 2 additional pieces of data (or attributes). This has now been updated to 4. 

For example, if you were billing based on messages sent through your platform, you could track "origin", "destination", "message type", and "data size" in addition to configuring different rates for every permutation of those attributes.  

Try Events-Based Billing today and see for yourself the sophisticated granularity you can achieve with it. For more information on Events-Based Billing, see our documentation here>

Chargify has partnered with UNIPaaS to bring our merchants a unique gateway catered to Marketplaces & Digital Platforms. This new integration provides streamlined onboarding, global processing, and dynamic payout solutions to our merchants. 

Dynamic payouts are an exciting feature that is in high demand, now more than ever. Receive funds within minutes of clearing, rather than working to conventional banking timescales. Dynamically schedule funds and keep your customers happy.

Additionally, when you connect to UNIPaaS you are provided a Merchant Portal with real-time monitoring to more effectively manage transactions, financial reporting, and gain insights on users and statistics. 

Contact your Customer Success Manager or Chargify Support to enable this new gateway. For more information on our UNIPaaS integration, see our documentation here>

Our latest Salesforce integration (v3) is continually being enhanced to parody the functionality in Chargify that is used by your sales & support teams, preventing them to swivel between two systems to serve your customers' needs. The latest update to our Salesforce integration now utilizes Chargify’s Subscription Groups. When creating a subscription you can now select if the subscription should be billed individually or in a consolidated invoice with other subscriptions.

Sales processes often involve multiple rounds of back and forth with customers before agreeing on a final set of products, services, and prices. To make this process as quick and simple as possible for your prospect and sales team, the Chargify to Salesforce integration offers Subscription Previews. 

The subscription preview serves as just that - a preview of what is being purchased. This preview can act like a quote and be sent to your prospect or customer so they can directly see the products and services, quantities and prices being discussed. This preview can be updated as many times as needed as you move through negotiations. Once the opportunity is Closed Won in Salesforce, the subscription is automatically created in Chargify.

Your sales team now have the ability to create coupon / discounts directly in Salesforce!  This added functionality will give your sales team the ability to create coupons on the fly, without having to interface with the Chargify application. Any coupons created in Salesforce, will automatically be synced back to Chargify. 

Additionally, your Customer Success team can also benefit from this added feature, by creating discounts for your customers to help with potential churn.

Credit Cards numbers change all the time, regardless of the reason (ie. expiry dates), these updates impact your ability to successfully bill on time. Last month we announced the launch of BlueSnap, a payment gateway specializing in global payments. As this integration continues to expand to meet our customers' needs, we are excited to announce that the Account Updater feature has been added. 

The Account Updater from BlueSnap enables card information changes (such as expiration data changes, account number changes, account closures, and more) to be conveniently and automatically updated, reducing failed payments and the need to contact each customer directly. 

With Account Updater, you can maintain customer satisfaction of customer service due to non-payment while minimizing costs associated with collections and manual account updates. The BlueSnap Account Updater service is supported for American Express, Discover, Mastercard and Visa cards.

To make sure you continue to have the data you need where you need it most, we continue to make investments in our NetSuite integration. These enhancements include moving onto the latest released NetSuite API (20.1), enabling several functionality enhancements to streamline your business processes. 

Our latest enhancements include the ability to use custom forms in addition to the out-of-the-box forms for creating sales orders. You can also now choose the specific bank account and specific AR accounts used by the integration when recording refunds. 

In addition, NetSuite Payment Instrument functionality is now available. These latest enhancements add specific granularity and control as you sync data back and forth between NetSuite and Chargify.

A new report has been added to our Salesforce integration allowing you to map out which records will be created or matched before you integrate your Chargify environment with your Salesforce environment. This new Data Validation Report can be run before the integration to avoid any hiccups prior to committing to a permanent change. The records included in the report for matching are the following:  

• Customer
• Products
• Components
• Coupons
