Release Notes - Kartra

This update introduces enhancements to our Smart Profile Cookie and a new Express Checkout flow that enables one-tap purchases for the new Kartra Checkout assets, while fully honoring your customers' privacy preferences.

Improvements

  • Smart Profile Cookie 2.0
    We've upgraded our Smart Profile Cookie to enhance performance and privacy (14911): 
    • Now set on your root domain and securely passed through the checkout API. 
    • Automatically pre-fills checkout fields with the buyer’s most recent contact information for a smoother purchasing experience.
    • Fully respects consent: the cookie is only read or written if a visitor has accepted All Cookies. If they later change their settings to Essential Only, Express Checkout is disabled for them.
  • Express Checkouts
    When a shopper’s required details (name, email, etc.) are already saved in their Smart Profile Cookie, Kartra Checkouts now offer a one-tap Express Checkout button for instant purchase. (14951)
    • Available only when there is a previous purchase of a product with recurring payments or installment plans.

    • Not supported with PayPal, or when using Klarna, Google Pay, or Apple Pay.

NOTE: For now, Express Checkout functionality is only available in the new Kartra Checkouts (Sales > Checkouts). We are working on restoring this feature to Legacy Checkouts (Sales > Products) and will release it in a separate update.
