Depending on your region’s tax requirements, you might need to include a client’s personal Tax ID when registering a financial transaction, in order to be compliant with your local legislation.

If your region requires this, you can now enable this option in your Settings. 

You can capture this when registering new members, as well as add and edit the Tax ID for existing members in their profile. A member’s Tax ID will then be included in any future receipts, and in your Transactions report.

Our 'New Memberships' Report allows you to see membership details for first time members and for members returning after a previous membership.

This report can help you identify and contact new members, in addition to those returning after an absence.  It can help you to provide a positive onboarding experience and great customer service.

Contact details, the membership name & plan and the commencement date are returned for every member. We also provide ‘days’ since previous membership and current membership status which can be used to analyse the effectiveness of your membership offering. 

You can extend the default 7 day time period or select time frames of your own choosing if you want to reach out to customers from a time period in the past.

We have released enhancements to the Payouts Report that you can access via our Revenue Report. 

1. All Payouts details are now fully viewable as ‘In transit’ payments are now downloadable. 
2. We have added a ‘Failed’ payment state for Payouts that fail due to error. A 'Failed' Payout will never change status to 'Paid'. It will remain in 'Failed' and a new Payout will need to be created.

The payouts report now has 4 status possibilities.

• Paid
• Failed
• Scheduled
• In-Transit

'Scheduled' includes an expected date for the transfer of funds. This status can change to 'In-transit' if the expected scheduled date has not been met.

Please visit our Knowledge Base article here to find out more about this report. All feedback welcome below.

We recently made some improvements to the error messaging for failed card and direct debit payments. Previously, a generic error message was displayed, making it difficult to understand why your client’s card/DD was failing.

You will start to see the below 4 error messages for failed payments in the shopping cart on the dashboard. 

1. The card has been declined. The client should contact their bank for more information - A card decline can be due to several reasons such as an expired card, incorrect pin, card not supported.
2. The card has insufficient funds to complete the transaction - In this instance the client should use an alternative payment method if possible. 
3. The client’s bank has declined the transaction - Payment authorization has been declined by the issuing bank. The client should use a different card or contact their bank.
4. The mandate has been cancelled or expired - The mandate is no longer live on the client’s account, it’s either been cancelled by the client or it has expired.
