Shopify
Shopify is deprecating the manual paths — Liquid receipts, duty-on-delivery — and pushing merchants onto managed defaults.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of CartFlows and Shoplazza — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Free and Pro ship in lockstep pairs, and this one is all about WooCommerce bundles.
CartFlows releases the free plugin and the Pro add-on as same-day pairs, roughly every two to six weeks. The August pair centers on WooCommerce Product Bundles: Pro 3.1.3 makes bundles work as upsell and downsell offers, while free 3.1.4 fixes how bundle products render across the funnel builder. The previous pair brought A/B split testing to order bumps and cut funnel load times.
Shoplazza's changelog is an API reference in disguise — one endpoint per entry.
Every dated entry in the current window is a single URL-redirect endpoint from the 2025-06 API version — create, update, delete, get, list, search — crawled as six separate releases. The undated rows add a new /openapi/2026-07/ version described as incremental, plus a US outbound-IP change that integrators have to act on. There is no merchant-facing news here, only surface area.

The work is converging on post-purchase revenue mechanics — order bumps, upsells, downsells, cart recovery — rather than on funnel authoring. Bundles support closes a real gap, since the highest-value WooCommerce catalogs sell bundled SKUs and previously could not put them in an offer slot. Analytics and attribution accuracy keep getting patched release after release, which suggests measurement is the weak link customers keep reporting.
Expect the next pair to follow the same shape: a Pro feature extending offer types or A/B testing to more of the funnel, with the free plugin catching the display and compatibility fixes that follow.

Shoplazza is versioning its API on a dated cadence and documenting it endpoint by endpoint, which is how a platform courting third-party apps behaves rather than one shipping storefront features. The redirect endpoints suggest the current work sits in migration and SEO tooling for merchants moving onto the platform.
The 2026-07 version should firm up from 'Released TBD' to a dated cutover, most likely paired with a deprecation notice for the January prefix.
