What's New in Zoho Subscriptions - August 2020

Hello everyone,

This month's update brings features that streamline your everyday usage of Zoho Subscriptions. Let's dive in.

Share Hosted Payment Pages Easily

The new share pop-up for hosted payment pages lets you quickly generate a URL for a hosted payment page, or an embed code to embed the entire hosted payment page as an iframe in your website or web application. The best part? The add-ons and their pre-filled quantities that you configure on this pop-up are part of the generated URL or embed code, so you don't have to add them as parameters manually to the end of hosted payment page URLs anymore.

To access this pop-up, go to Products > Select a product > Click Share Hosted Payment Page in the Plans section.

Accept Direct Debit Payments from the Hosted Payment Pages

You can now enable GoCardless on the hosted payment pages and allow your customers to pay you via direct debit.


To do this, go to Settings > Integrations > Online Payments > Click Enable next to GoCardless.

More Bulk Actions

We've added more bulk update options to help you cut down on some busywork. You can now update the payment terms or toggle Auto-charge for multiple subscriptions in one go.


To try bulk actions, go to the Subscriptions module from the left sidebar and select one or more subscriptions from the list. Click the Bulk Update dropdown above the list to view the available bulk actions.

The mobile apps have had frequent updates as well. The Android app for Zoho Subscriptions has been updated with features like Unbilled Charges and Partial Payments, while the iOS app was bumped up to version 2.0, bringing along a whole suite of iOS-specific features.

We've also launched a new monthly community learning series which spotlights all of Zoho Subscriptions' activities under one roof, from events and customer stories to niche features and webinar announcements. The latest post, Digest #3, covers these, along with an announcement for Zoho Subscriptions' Developer Community.

We hope you try these features out and do let us know what you think about them in the comments below. You can also write to us at support@zohosubscriptions.com if you need any assistance.

Stay safe and best regards,
The Zoho Subscriptions Team
