Arguments

​

The New

​

The New

​

Gift Cards Placement Experiment

​

Why optimize the gift card placement?

• Our hypothesis is shoppers think about using gift cards during the payment step, not earlier.
• Presenting the opportunity to enter gift cards during the payment step reduces checkout complexity.
• Moving gift cards to the payment step clearly separates them from discounts, making it easier for customers to use them.
• Gift cards at the payment step is the industry standard for ecommerce.

​

The New

• You can expect fewer order creation errors.
• Orders are always marked as “Captured.” In previous versions, payments were occasionally left uncaptured.
• Orders created via Bolt will appear as created by BigCommerce in the dashboard and no longer display the device the shopper used to create the order.

​

Action Item

​

The New

​

The Improved

​

New OTP Modal

​

New Authorization Modal

​

Bug Fixes

• Ensures plugin compatibility with Magento Version 2.4.6..

​

The New

​

Upgraded Features

• With Self-service Disputes, quickly take action on chargebacks and review the status of ongoing disputes.
• Bolt has introduced Alternative Payment Method Google Pay, with more new ways to pay being added all the time.
• The revamped Transactions timeline allows you to see an at-a-glance view of orders.
• Added fraud protection allows merchants to block specific emails and IP addresses from transacting. Prevent known fraudsters from purchasing items on your site.

​

Design

• The new navigation prioritizes workflow, grouping tasks intuitively to maximize productivity. Settings have been improved to work more predictably.
• Filtering and pagination is improved across the dashboard experience.

​

Analytics

• Key data is consolidated and reports optimized to improve readability, increase user engagement and reduce cognitive load.

​

Maps in Checkout

​

The New

• Logic that calculates cart totals and sends cart information has been migrated to the Bolt backend. This gives Bolt engineers the freedom to easily debug and improve add-to-cart logic.

​

Bug fixes

• Fixes minor issue that caused Magento plugin to display an error when modifying certain products’ inventory to “Out of Stock”.

​

The New

​

The Improved

​

About this Functionality

• The /v1/account/exists endpoint will create a record of the shopper’s valid email address and IP address. This data is retained only for the time strictly necessary to successfully authorize a transaction. It is then deleted from our servers. If you wish to use this particular functionality, this endpoint must be called from the browser.
• IPs are stored when a Shopper OAuth (login) session is created (either via our Authorization Modal or Auto Login component).
• The /v1/merchant/transactions/authorize endpoint will retrieve the shopper’s IP address using the email provided in the user_identifier field, if available.
• If you are using Adyen as your payment processor, Bolt will securely pass the Shopper’s IP directly to their service.

​

How to Implement

• When detecting shopper accounts, call the /v1/account/exists endpoint from the browser.
• Require shoppers to enter their emails during checkout, then pass that email value in an authentication call (using the Embedded API) to the user_identifier object as the email field.
• Provide OAuth tokens in the same authentication call.

• Unverified device: When a shopper creates a Bolt account during checkout, they do not have to complete authentication via one-time verification code, so this device is considered unverified.
