What we shipped. And when we shipped it.

1. August 11, 2026 App update

   Gift subscriptions that finish themselves

   Added Fixed

   • Gifts end exactly when they should. Every renewal counts down the gifted deliveries automatically, and the final one completes the gift and cancels the billing — the gift buyer is never charged beyond the duration they paid for. No manual bookkeeping required.
   • The "keep it going" moment. When a gift wraps up, the recipient gets a branded invitation to continue the subscription on their own — with a direct link to the product. Gifted months become subscribers.
   • Gift buyers stay in the loop. A purchase confirmation when the gift email goes out, and a "they redeemed your gift" note the moment it lands — the payoff moment gifting was missing.
2. August 11, 2026 App update

   Referral links that carry the discount

   Added

   • Every affiliate gets a shareable link. Anyone who clicks it lands on the store with the affiliate's discount applied automatically at checkout — no code to remember, no code to type. Perfect for bios, video descriptions, and stories.
   • Click tracking, built in. Every click is counted per affiliate. Affiliates see their clicks and click-to-order rate on their dashboard; merchants get a Clicks column and a one-click Copy link button on the affiliates list.
   • Zero setup. Links work on every theme with no storefront changes, ride the same code as always — product scoping and discount modes included — and appear automatically in each affiliate's welcome email.
3. August 11, 2026 App update

   Analytics you can read anywhere

   Improved

   • Charts fill their cards at every screen size. The revenue and activity charts now draw at the real width of their container instead of floating letterboxed in wide layouts — edge to edge on ultrawides, crisp on phones.
   • Charts speak keyboard and touch. Focus a chart and use arrow keys to inspect any day; tap on touch devices. Screen readers get real descriptions instead of silence.
   • A legend that tells the truth. Named series with swatches that match the marks, in Daima's own chart colors — violet for attention, hot orange for money.
   • Your store's real name, everywhere. Emails, the dashboard greeting, and the affiliate portal now show your store's display name from Shopify — no more hash subdomains standing in for your brand.
4. August 10, 2026 App update

   Affiliates apply — you approve

   Added

   • Affiliate application form block. Add it to any page from the theme editor. Applicants submit their name, email, Instagram / TikTok / YouTube, and — if they want — their preferred discount code, checked for availability on the spot.
   • Review from your dashboard. Applications appear under Program Stats with social links at a glance. Accept creates the affiliate with your program defaults and their requested code; deny declines politely. One click either way.
   • Three branded emails carry the conversation. Application received, accepted (with their code and dashboard link), or declined — each headed with your store's name so applicants always know who's writing.
   • Pause anytime. A toggle in the Applications card closes submissions without touching your theme — the form tells applicants you're not accepting right now.
5. August 9, 2026 App update

   Product-scoped affiliate codes, visible payout dates

   Added

   • Choose which products affiliate codes work on. A native product picker in Program Settings scopes every affiliate code — ineligible products get no discount, and a cart with none of your chosen products politely reports the code as not applicable.
   • Commissions follow the scope. With scoping active, percentage commissions pay on eligible line items only — affiliates earn on what their code actually discounts, not the whole cart.
   • See your payout period at a glance. The Payouts card now shows the current 30-day period, its close date, and days remaining — computed with the same math the payout engine runs, so it can never disagree with your emails.
6. July 28, 2026 App update

   A widget editor you can trust

   Added Fixed

   • The preview is the widget now. The editor preview renders the storefront widget's actual code and styles, so what you see is exactly what ships — and your Custom CSS applies live in the preview too.
   • Desktop / Mobile preview toggle. See the widget at phone width with its real mobile styles — including your Pro mobile font and padding overrides, visible in the editor for the first time.
   • Two new widget options. Savings badge placement (everywhere, tab and total, or tab only) and a frequency selector style that shows plans as visible rows instead of a dropdown — so customers compare savings without opening a menu.
   • Fixed: Card and Minimal corner styles. These editor options previously fell back to Rounded on the storefront. They now render exactly as previewed.
   • Accessibility, baked in. Proper tab semantics for screen readers, a keyboard-reachable gift checkbox, 44px touch targets, and a redesigned gift form with room to breathe. Not options — defaults.
7. July 26, 2026 Site v2.0

   A full site redesign

   Marketing Improved

   • New design system. Flat surfaces, two brand lights, a floating pill nav, a three-tier pill button system with invert hovers, and growth-based scroll animations on every page — always subscribed, always growing.
   • New homepage hero. A live product-page demo: the real Subscribe & Save widget customizes itself — a ghost cursor picks accent colors and types discounts and button copy into real editor fields while product photos rotate behind it.
   • Mobile-first touches. Feature cards become a swipeable rail with dot navigation on small screens, with inertial smooth scrolling sitewide.
8. July 24, 2026 App update

   Affiliate payouts, PayPal sign-in, and the multi-store portal

   Added

   • One-click affiliate payouts via PayPal. Commissions accumulate into 30-day payout periods; when a period closes, the merchant pays every affiliate at once through their own PayPal Business account. Daima calculates, the merchant approves, PayPal delivers — funds never pass through Daima. Payout docs →
   • Log in with PayPal for affiliates. One-click dashboard sign-in — and payouts to signed-in affiliates target their PayPal-verified account, making typo-lost payments impossible.
   • The multi-store affiliate portal. An affiliate promoting several Daima-powered stores sees all their programs, stats, and lifetime totals in one branded portal after a single sign-in.
   • Hardened dashboard access. Emailed one-click sign-in links replace code+email entry; payout-email changes trigger automatic security notifications; PayPal connection is required before a merchant can enable affiliates at all.
9. July 22, 2026 App update

   The affiliate program engine

   Added

   • Recurring commissions. Affiliates earn on every renewal a referred subscriber makes — not just the first order. Attribution survives the whole contract lifetime.
   • Percentage or fixed discounts per affiliate code, three discount modes (full, first-order-only, tracking-only), and automatic Shopify discount creation and cleanup.
   • 7-day confirmation holds so refunded orders never pay commission, with automated conversion notifications to affiliates.
10. July 18, 2026 App update

    Billing engine, contract migration, and merchant controls

    Added Improved

    • Recurring billing engine. Daily billing cron with retries, configurable failure handling, and branded billing-failure emails to subscribers.
    • Switch from another app, seamlessly. CSV contract import now activates real billing subscriptions that pick up exactly where the customer left off — same schedule, same pricing.
    • Merchant contract controls. Pause, resume, cancel, and archive any customer's subscription from the admin.
    • Analytics precision. Tenant isolation audit plus HMAC-verified storefront analytics — every store's numbers are airtight and cross-store leakage is impossible.
11. July 14, 2026 App update

    Brand-grade emails and a redesigned admin

    Improved

    • The full transactional email system redesigned on the brand: gifts, affiliate welcomes and conversions, payout notices, billing alerts — each with proper legal footers.
    • May 2026 v1.0.0

      Daima launches on the Shopify App Store

      Released

      • The full subscription stack, live. Subscribe & Save widget, customer self-serve portal, subscription management, analytics, loyalty tiers, gift subscriptions, A/B testing, churn prediction, checkout upsell, and the affiliate program — one install. Install on Shopify →
      • Admin dashboard overhaul. A modern KPI dashboard in the Daima brand system, responsive from wide desktop to mobile.
    • Mobile-first touches. Feature cards become a swipeable rail with dot navigation on small screens, and inertial smooth scrolling runs sitewide.
12. July 24, 2026 App update

    Affiliate payouts, PayPal sign-in, and the multi-store portal

    Added Pro feature

    • One-click affiliate payouts via PayPal. Commissions accumulate into 30-day payout periods; when a period closes you pay every affiliate at once through your own PayPal Business account. Daima calculates, you approve, PayPal delivers — funds never touch us. Read the payout docs →
    • Log in with PayPal for affiliates. Affiliates sign into their dashboard with one click — and payouts to signed-in affiliates go to their PayPal-verified account, making typo-lost payments impossible.
    • The multi-store affiliate portal. An affiliate promoting several Daima-powered stores sees all their programs, stats, and lifetime totals in one branded portal after a single sign-in.
    • Secure dashboard access. Emailed one-click sign-in links replace code+email entry, and any change to a payout email triggers an automatic security notification.
13. April 27, 2026 v1.1.0

    Comparison pages, About, and an SEO refresh

    Marketing Added Improved

    • New page: /vs-recharge/. Side-by-side comparison with Recharge. Verified pricing math at $1K, $10K, and $50K MRR. Honest "where Recharge wins" section.
    • New page: /vs-loop/. Side-by-side comparison with Loop Subscriptions. Same shape, different argument: Loop's transaction fees are lower than most competitors, but Daima Pro is still cheaper at every MRR level.
    • New page: /about/. Founder voice, four commitments, and operating company facts.
    • SEO meta refresh on every page. Tightened all titles to 50–60 chars, all descriptions to 145–155 chars. Added page_robots override and set noindex on /404. Pricing page now signals as og:type=product with structured price tags.
    • Brand renamed to Daima Subscription App. Tagline added: Always subscribed. Always growing. Updated SoftwareApplication, WebSite, and Product schemas to match.
    • New FAQ entry on /pricing/. "Is there a free Shopify subscription app?" — uses the keyword phrase naturally and explains Daima Free's no-subscriber-cap differentiator.
    • Footer "Compare" column added. Sitewide internal links to /vs-recharge/ and /vs-loop/ for SEO link-graph and discoverability.
    • Shared page patterns moved to main.css. .big-head, .pr-section__head, and .cta-band now render correctly on every page (not just homepage and pricing).
14. April 26, 2026 v1.0.0
