    v2026.10.28 — Distinct storefronts and verified customer proof

    45 layouts and 225 palette choices
    Buyer page previews
    Verified purchase reviews

    45 storefront layouts now offer 5 color palettes each, with page previews for catalog, product, docs, checkout and receipt. Store purchases show masked buyers and order times. Reviews require a verified live paid purchase.

    Improved

    Theme collections separate layout choices from color palettes. Applying waits for a successful save.

    Fixed

    Readable light and dark text roles, responsive navigation and store-scoped buyer activity.

    Improved

    Sandbox/free purchases and seller self-reviews are excluded. Refunds do not remove legitimate buyer reviews; moderation survives edits.

    v2026.10.26 — Payment recovery and clearer receipts

    Reserved key inventory
    Scheduled payment recovery
    Clearer receipts

    PayPal checkout now reserves specific key inventory and records capture intent before payment. Scheduled recovery checks uncertain outcomes without starting another payment. Receipts describe the product's delivery terms and seller payment provider accurately.

    Improved

    Unknown payment outcomes retain their allocated inventory until verified. Sellers can inspect recovery status and request a retry for an existing order; some cases still require manual review.

    Changed

    Receipt terms acknowledge that delivery may require payment review or seller action. A receipt does not request another payment or guarantee immediate delivery.

    Changed

    This release does not enable Stripe or crypto checkout, recurring buyer billing or direct game-command delivery.

    v2026.10.25 — Creator referral coupons and expanded guides

    Creator coupon rewards
    Private creator portal
    Twelve interface languages

    Eligible sellers can enable creator referrals with verified Discord membership, a private creator portal and coupon rewards after verified paid delivery. The public site adds twelve interface languages, expanded comparisons and product-category guidance.

    New

    Creator referral rewards use one-use seller coupons. Full refunds void applicable rewards. Cash referral payouts are not released.

    Improved

    Every feature card links to setup and availability guidance. Game command tools remain manual examples; they do not install a fulfillment connector.

    v2026.10.24 — Catalog imports, signed licenses and order evidence

    Draft imports
    License verification
    Evidence PDFs
    Single-use downloads

    The seller console adds hidden-draft imports, safe evidence PDFs, optional signed license verification and single-use protected downloads. Timed role passes have an availability gate; recurring buyer billing, seller Stripe/crypto checkout and game-server command delivery are not released.

    New

    Import up to 100 validated CSV products per batch or preview supported public Gumroad/Whop USD listings. Imported products stay hidden until delivery and publish checks are complete.

    New

    Enable Ed25519-signed verification for sold keys with device limits, reset controls and full-refund revocation. Software must integrate the documented protocol.

    New

    Export an authorized order's payment, delivery and refund records as a readable PDF without private file URLs, license values or credentials.

    New

    Basic+ protected uploads offer optional 24-hour, single-use, network-bound downloads. Eligible buyers can request fresh links; downloaded copies cannot be recalled.

    Changed

    Timed role setup and new timed checkouts require a fresh expiry-service readiness check. A one-time pass does not create recurring buyer charges. Worker rollout remains separate from the frontend release.

    Improved

    Public category guides, creator tools, canonical URLs, private-route indexing controls and complete initial HTML support discovery without claiming guaranteed search rankings.

    v2026.10.22 — Buyer recovery, private files and merchant tools

    Buyer recovery
    Protected downloads
    Merchant API
    Verified refunds

    The web console now includes buyer purchase recovery, private file versions, scoped merchant API keys and verified refund reconciliation. Existing store switching, language menus and responsive management pages have been refined. Bot worker/recovery command rollout and basket activation remain separate.

    New

    Your purchases provides private order and delivery recovery with the buyer's original Discord account.

    New

    Basic adds private file versions up to 25 MiB each within 250 MiB per store; eligible downloads use 60-second signed links.

    New

    Pro adds owner-controlled API keys for product reads, order reads and replay-safe non-key stock updates, with expiry and request budgets.

    Improved

    Refund reconciliation verifies PayPal merchant, capture, status and cumulative amounts. Partial refunds retain access; full refunds close new managed download access.

    Improved

    Store selection changes the actual workspace; language switches preserve mounted product drafts; setup readiness distinguishes configuration from a successful payment test.

    Changed

    Basket checkout and true component bundles are not released. New recovery/staff bot commands and durable role-removal processing are still rolling out; use the web recovery and support routes.

    v1.8.0 — Three commands, a guided product tour & PayPal live

    3 slash commands
    Guided tour
    Live PayPal
    Premium homepage

    The bot is down to three buyer commands — /store, /products and /buy — with everything an owner does living in the dashboard. The homepage gains a guided walkthrough of the real console, and platform billing now runs on live PayPal credentials.

    Changed

    Discord commands reduced to /store, /products and /buy. /orders, /coupon and /help were retired: receipts and order IDs arrive in the delivery DM and on the checkout page, and coupon codes are entered at checkout where the discount is actually validated

    Changed

    Retired commands answer with where the feature moved instead of an unknown-command error, so older clients and pinned messages still lead somewhere useful

    New

    Homepage walkthrough of the real dashboard: Discord sign-in, bot invite and consent, publishing a product with the actual form fields, orders, coupons, docs, themes, connecting PayPal and upgrading a plan

    New

    Seller testimonials section, shown only once real consented quotes are published

    Improved

    FAQ is now a compact accordion that opens one answer at a time, and the how-it-works and overview sections reveal as you scroll

    Fixed

    The dashboard preview no longer changes height between steps, and the Discord consent screen is no longer stretched by a duplicated wrapper

    Fixed

    Declared seven edge functions in config.toml that were running undeclared, which would have started rejecting the sitemap and feed requests on the next full deploy

    v1.7.0 — Verified reviews, premium directory & page controls

    Verified reviews
    Premium directory
    Page controls
    Delivery fixes

    Storefront reviews move into a scrolling rail and state plainly that they come from verified buyers. The public directory now lists paid stores only, ranked by real sales and reviews. Platform owners can switch any public page on or off from the admin panel.

    New

    Storefront reviews render in a paused-on-hover rail matching the products and payments sections, with a note explaining that every review is tied to a completed paid order

    New

    Store pages publish aggregateRating and Review structured data, so ratings can appear in search results

    New

    Store directory lists paid plans only, ranked by completed sales, verified reviews, average rating, catalog size and community size

    New

    Admin → Pages: switch any public page on or off, choose whether it appears in the header or footer, allow or block search indexing, and override its title and description

    New

    Admin → Pages also toggles each homepage section without a deploy

    New

    Directory pagination moved into the URL (?page=), so a page of results can be shared and crawled

    Improved

    Delivery now waits out Discord rate limits instead of reporting a failure, using the retry window Discord returns

    Improved

    A failed role grant tells the seller exactly what went wrong — missing permission, role hierarchy, deleted role, or a buyer who has not joined the server

    Improved

    Longer manual fulfillment instructions survive into the buyer's DM, and the buyer is told when they have been shortened

    Improved

    Delivery logs record whether an attempt came from the purchase itself or a seller re-send

    Fix

    A buyer whose license key ran out is now told the seller is restocking, instead of being told a key was reserved when none was

    Fix

    Re-sending an already-delivered order no longer stamps a new delivery time on the order history

    Fix

    Delivery logs stay readable after a product is deleted, and store managers can read them too

    Roadmap

    What we are working on next

    Upcoming items are directional and subject to priority shifts based on server feedback, security, and stability metrics.

    Research

    Coupon intelligence

    Seller analytics showing which coupon codes convert to repeat buyers and highest-value orders.

    Research

    Stripe payment gateway

    Stripe as an additional direct-to-seller payment option alongside PayPal.

    Planned

    Bundle products

    Group multiple products into a single discounted bundle with one-click purchase.

    Backlog

    Cash referral payouts

    Let customers earn a commission on referrals tracked by unique Discord user IDs.

    Research

    Subscription products

    Sell recurring access passes — Discord roles renewed automatically every billing cycle.

    Backlog

    White-label storefronts

    Research into custom-domain mapping; this is not included in the current Enterprise subscription.
