OCTOBER 2026

  1. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed billing cancellation date display

    We fixed an issue where the cancellation date shown on your Billing page wasn't always accurate. When you schedule a subscription cancellation, the page now correctly displays when your subscription will end, making it easier to plan accordingly.

    See the accurate cancellation date when you schedule a subscription cancellation

  2. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    View Your Purchased Add-ons on the Billing Page

    We've added a new section to your Billing page that displays all add-ons you've purchased. This card shows each add-on's name, price, purchase date, and current status (Active or Refunded), giving you a complete overview of your account's purchased items alongside your membership information.

    See all your purchased add-ons in one place on your Billing page

  3. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed add-on checkout errors for sold-out and already-owned items

    We've fixed an issue where users could encounter confusing error messages when trying to purchase add-ons that were either sold out or already owned by their account. Now you'll receive clear, helpful error messages that explain why a purchase can't be completed and suggest checking back later for sold-out items.

    Clearer error messages when attempting to purchase unavailable add-ons

  4. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Prevent Duplicate Payment Cards from Being Saved

    We've fixed an issue where the system would allow you to save the same payment card multiple times. Now when you try to add a card that's already saved to your account, the system will detect it and show you a clear message instead of creating a duplicate entry.

    Cleaner payment method management with no duplicate cards

  5. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed email links in application approval notifications

    We fixed an issue where email links sent to applicants when their applications were approved or during the application process were pointing to incorrect environments. This was causing 404 errors when users tried to click through from their approval emails. Now all email links are correctly routed to the appropriate environment where the studio data actually exists.

    Application approval emails now contain working links that successfully load your studio

  6. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed billing status and feedback actions during plan changes

    We fixed two issues that were causing problems when switching between plans. First, when you switched plans, your billing information wasn't updating properly until you manually refreshed the page. Second, feedback actions were remaining available even when your plan reassignment was still being processed. Both issues are now resolved.

    Your billing information updates immediately after switching plans without needing to refresh

  7. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed issue where cancelled subscriptions remained active

    We fixed a problem where subscriptions that were cancelled would sometimes still appear as active in your account. This could happen if a subscription was cancelled outside of the normal flow. Now when a subscription is cancelled, it properly updates everywhere so you won't see conflicting status information.

    Subscriptions now correctly reflect their cancellation status immediately

SEPTEMBER 2026

  1. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved Payment Method Setup for Studios

    We've fixed an issue where studios that haven't completed their payment setup could encounter confusing error messages when trying to add payment methods. Now, studios will receive a clear, actionable message explaining what needs to be done before they can accept payments, and team members will be prevented from attempting payment setup prematurely.

    Clear error messages that explain exactly what's blocking payment setup

  2. EnhancementsStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved Cohort Creation with Better Validation and Date Restrictions

    We've improved the cohort creation and editing experience with clearer validation rules and helpful feedback. Cohort names are now limited to 80 characters and descriptions to 500 characters, with live character counters showing you how much space you have left. Start and end dates are now required fields, and you can't set an end date in the past or before the start date.

    See real-time character counts for cohort name and description as you type

  3. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Track Member Acquisition Sources and View Campaign Attribution

    We now track how members discover your studio—whether through ads, search engines, or direct referrals—and display this information in your members list and member details. This helps you understand which marketing campaigns are driving signups and measure the effectiveness of your promotional efforts.

    See the source and campaign for each member signup in your members table

  4. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Add-on Plans: Create and Manage One-Time Purchases

    Studio admins can now create add-on plans—one-time purchases members buy on top of their membership to unlock extra content like courses or masterclasses. The admin interface has been updated to distinguish between recurring memberships and add-ons, and member profiles now display purchase history for tracking.

    Create new monetization opportunities by selling one-time add-ons alongside recurring memberships

  5. EnhancementsStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved access to add-on content plans

    We've updated how content access is determined for members who purchase add-on plans. Members can now access content from any plan they hold—whether through their membership or through individual add-on purchases—rather than just their primary membership plan. This ensures all your purchased content is properly unlocked across the platform.

    Add-on plan purchases now correctly unlock gated content across channels, courses, messages, and resources

  6. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Monthly Feedback Credits Now Properly Disabled on Free Plans

    We've fixed an issue where monthly feedback credits could be incorrectly configured on free membership plans. The system now properly prevents this configuration at both the user interface and backend levels, ensuring free plans work as intended without feedback credit features.

    Free plans now function correctly without the ability to configure monthly feedback credits

  7. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    One-off Membership Refunds Now End Access

    When a studio owner refunds a one-time membership payment, the member's access is now automatically revoked. Previously, refunded members would retain access indefinitely. Members can see their refunded purchase status on their billing page and rejoin by purchasing a plan again.

    Studio owners have better control over member access when issuing refunds

  8. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Split Payments Option Removed

    We've removed the split payments (installment) option from plan creation. This payment method had limitations and is no longer available. Studios can no longer create new plans with split payments, and members cannot purchase plans using this payment method. For flexible payment options, we recommend using Klarna or Clearpay on standard one-time payment prices.

    Clearer payment options without unsupported installment features

  9. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    One-off purchases now display correctly on your billing page

    Members who purchased a one-off plan now see their purchase clearly displayed with payment details, instead of seeing subscription management options that don't apply to them. The billing page now shows the correct information for one-off purchases, including when you paid and confirmation that nothing will be charged again.

    Clear visibility of your one-off purchase with payment date and amount

  10. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Buy one-off coaching plans as an existing subscriber

    Existing Studio subscribers can now purchase one-off plans (like individual 1:1 coaching sessions) directly through a secure checkout experience. Previously, this wasn't possible for members with active subscriptions. When you buy a one-off plan, your existing subscription will wind down at the end of your current billing period, and you'll transition to your new one-off plan.

    Flexibility to purchase individual plans without needing to cancel your subscription first

  11. EnhancementsStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved Bulk Invoice Download and Print Experience

    We've improved how you download and print multiple invoices at once. Instead of opening each invoice in a separate tab (which could be blocked by popup blockers), bulk downloads now create a single ZIP file and bulk printing merges all invoices into one PDF for printing. This makes managing multiple invoices faster and more reliable.

    Bulk downloads now work reliably without popup blocker issues - receive a single ZIP file instead of multiple tabs

  12. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved Google Analytics Purchase Tracking for Stripe Subscriptions

    We fixed an issue where purchase events weren't reliably being tracked in Google Analytics when users completed Stripe subscription payments. Purchase tracking now happens server-side from payment confirmation, ensuring it's captured regardless of cookie consent settings or whether users return to the success page. We've also added a new Google Analytics API Secret field in the integrations settings to enable this reliable server-side tracking.

    Purchase events are now reliably recorded in Google Analytics, even if users don't have cookies enabled or don't return to the confirmation page

  13. EnhancementsStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved invite checkout experience and UI refinements

    We've improved the experience for team members who are invited to join a studio. When invited members log in and are directed to checkout, their email is now automatically prefilled so they don't have to type it again. We've also made several UI improvements throughout the app, including better formatting in custom links, clearer permission messages, and improved visual consistency.

    Faster checkout process for invited team members—no need to re-enter your email

  14. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed Duplicate Error Messages in Studio Payments Setup

    We've resolved an issue where Studio users would see duplicate error messages when setting up Stripe Connect for payments. Additionally, we fixed a problem where the 'Go to your Studio' link could redirect to the wrong environment (production instead of testing). The Stripe payment requirement messages are now displayed more clearly without repetition, making it easier to understand what steps you need to complete.

    No more duplicate error messages when setting up Stripe Connect payments

  15. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed login issue for newly approved free plan members

    We've resolved an issue where newly approved free plan members couldn't log in to their studio accounts. Previously, approved members would receive an error message saying they weren't members of the studio, even though their access had been granted. This fix ensures that login permissions update correctly immediately after approval.

    Newly approved free plan members can now log in successfully without delays

  16. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed paid plan invitations now require payment before access

    We fixed an issue where invited members assigned to paid plans could access the studio without completing payment. Now, all invited members (whether on trial or paid plans) must complete the checkout process and make payment before gaining access to the studio. This ensures studios are properly compensated when inviting members to paid plans.

    Studio owners can now confidently invite members to paid plans knowing payment will be collected before access is granted

  17. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed Payment Setup Redirect Issues

    We've fixed an issue where studio owners were being redirected to a login page instead of the payment setup page when trying to enable payments. Now, when you click 'Enable Payments' from anywhere in your studio, you'll be taken directly to the payment setup page with the correct context, so you can start accepting subscriptions without any extra steps.

    Seamless access to payment setup without unexpected login redirects

  18. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed member limit counting for studio signups

    We fixed an issue where established studios with a history of cancelled memberships could be incorrectly locked out of accepting new members. Now only current active members count toward your studio's member limit, allowing new signups to proceed as expected based on your actual current membership.

    New members can now join your studio without being blocked by historical cancelled subscriptions

AUGUST 2026

  1. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Interactive Studio Earnings Calculator Added

    We've added an interactive earnings calculator to help you estimate potential monthly revenue from your Studio. Adjust member count, subscription price, and add-on services to see real-time earnings projections based on actual Trackstack studio data. The calculator appears on the Studio landing page and includes detailed information about how estimates are calculated.

    Instantly see how much you could earn with different pricing and member scenarios

  2. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed login flow for existing free plan members

    Existing members who tried to rejoin a free plan through the public signup link were previously stuck with an error message and no way to access their account. We've fixed this by now showing a clear message and offering a direct login button, matching the behavior of our paid plan signup flow.

    Existing members can now easily log in when they encounter the join screen again

  3. EnhancementsStudio · Memberships & payments

    Manage Free Plans Without Stripe Connection

    Studio owners can now view and manage their plans page even without connecting Stripe. Free plans are fully functional and ready to use immediately. To create paid plans and accept member payments, owners will see a clear prompt to connect their Stripe account with a direct link to complete the setup.

    Access your plans dashboard right away—no Stripe setup required to get started

  4. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Plan changes now instantly reflect in open tabs

    When your membership plan changes through Stripe (such as scheduled downgrades or plan switches), your open browser tabs now immediately refresh to show your updated access. Previously, you had to manually reload to see changes take effect.

    See plan changes instantly across all open tabs without manual refresh

  5. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Channel and event access now updates instantly when membership changes

    Previously, if you changed your membership plan or were added/removed from a cohort while you had the studio open in a tab, your channel sidebar and event list wouldn't update until you manually refreshed the page. Now these changes appear immediately in your open session, just like they do after a page reload.

    See updated channel and event access instantly when your plan changes or cohort membership updates

  6. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Member Cohorts Now Fully Functional

    Member cohorts are now complete and ready to use end-to-end. You can create cohorts, add members individually or in bulk, and use them to gate channel access. The Cohorts section is now easily accessible from the admin sidebar, and all operations have been thoroughly tested and validated.

    Create and manage member cohorts directly from the admin panel with intuitive create/edit dialogs

JULY 2026

  1. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Bug fixes for studio owners: coach pages, credits, cancellations, and more

    We've fixed five bugs affecting studio owners, with particular improvements for free plan users. Coach pages now show only video content, free plan members receive feedback credits properly, studio owners get notified when members cancel through Stripe, plan archiving works reliably, and the Elevate navigation has been restored for studios with Elevate stores.

    Free plan members now receive their monthly feedback credits automatically

  2. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed Subscribe Page Redirect Error

    We've fixed an issue where the Subscribe page would sometimes redirect to a page that didn't exist, causing a 404 error. The page now correctly determines whether to show your landing page or the subscription options, preventing these broken redirects.

    Subscribe page now loads reliably without 404 errors

  3. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved Member Management: Better Handling of Incomplete Payments

    We've improved how incomplete payments are handled in your member management. Members who abandon their payment process are now properly cleaned up and won't clutter your member list, while those still within their payment window remain visible under a dedicated 'Incomplete' section. Members can now successfully rejoin after a failed payment attempt.

    Cleaner member list that accurately reflects actual members versus those still completing payment

  4. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Manage free membership plans without Stripe

    Studio owners can now access the Applications tab and manage free membership plans even if they haven't connected a Stripe account yet. This lets you invite members and build your community before setting up payments.

    Start inviting members to your studio immediately without requiring Stripe setup

  5. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved Member Visibility and Data Consistency

    We've fixed an issue where newly invited or onboarded studio members weren't showing up correctly in member lists and plan management pages. Members created through various signup and invitation flows are now properly displayed with their correct subscription status across all admin interfaces.

    Member lists now accurately reflect all newly added or invited members

  6. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Plan Content Selection Now Shows All Your Posts, Channels, and Resources

    We've fixed a bug where the plan creation wizard and plan details page were only showing the newest 200 posts, channels, or resources from your studio library. If you had more than 200 items of any type, older content was missing from the selection screen. Now you'll see your complete library so you can assign access to all your content.

    Access all your posts, channels, and resources when setting up plan content permissions—no more missing older content

  7. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed: Deleted Members Now Properly Hidden Across the App

    When you deleted a member in the admin panel, they would reappear after refreshing the page. This has been fixed—deleted members are now properly hidden everywhere they appear in the app, including member lists, team rosters, author pickers, and notification/email systems.

    Member deletions now persist correctly across all admin panels and features

  8. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed frozen confirmation modal on member management

    We've resolved an issue where studio owners attempting to delete a team member would see a confirmation dialog that was completely unresponsive and appeared frozen. The same issue also affected the 'Switch Plan' and 'Cancel Subscription' dialogs in the member management drawer. You can now click these action confirmations without any problems.

    Confirmation modals for member deletion, plan switching, and subscription cancellation are now fully responsive and clickable

  9. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed: Staff invites no longer incorrectly assigned membership plans

    We've fixed an issue where staff members (Admins, Coaches, and Guest Coaches) were being assigned membership plans when invited to studios. Now, only Members receive membership plan assignments during invitations, while staff roles are correctly set up without a plan. This ensures proper account setup and prevents billing or access issues.

    Staff members invited to studios are now set up correctly without unnecessary membership plan assignments

  10. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed member onboarding getting stuck in a loop

    We've fixed an issue where new team members completing their onboarding would get stuck seeing the onboarding screen over and over, even though their profile information was being saved. New members can now successfully complete onboarding and access the studio on their first try.

    New members can complete onboarding without getting stuck in a redirect loop

JUNE 2026

  1. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed membership issues for new invitations and plan changes

    We've resolved critical issues that prevented new members from logging in after accepting free plan invitations and fixed problems when switching to a free plan. Members switching from paid to free plans will no longer experience unexpected billing issues.

    New members can now successfully log in immediately after accepting a free plan invitation

MAY 2026

  1. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Fixed issue allowing cancelled members to rejoin Studio for free

    We've fixed a bug that allowed members with cancelled subscriptions to bypass payment and access Studio on the free plan. Subscription checks are now enforced correctly at sign-up and when joining a free plan. Elevate order access is also gated properly for eligible members.

    Cancelled members can no longer access Studio without a valid subscription

  2. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Subscription list access restricted to studio owners and admins

    We've fixed a security issue where subscription information for a studio could be accessed without being logged in or having the right permissions. Now only verified owners and admins of a studio can view its subscription details. This keeps your studio's billing and membership data visible only to the people who should see it.

    Your studio's subscription data is no longer accessible to unauthorized users

MARCH 2026

  1. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Ability for Studio Owners and Incomplete Members to Cancel Subscriptions

    Studio owners and members with incomplete subscriptions can now directly cancel their subscriptions without going through Stripe. This allows more flexibility for managing subscription status.

    Easier subscription management for studio owners and incomplete members

  2. FeaturesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Improved Subscription Experience for Trial Users

    We've made changes to ensure that users on a trial subscription plan can access the full content experience after completing their checkout process. This helps provide a seamless onboarding experience for new trial users.

    Redirect invited trial plan members to Stripe checkout on first login

    Streamlined sign-up process for invited trial plan members

  5. Bug FixesStudio · Memberships & payments

    Trial subscription cancellations now work reliably

    We've fixed an issue that was preventing some users from being able to cancel their trial subscriptions. This update ensures that trial cancellations are now processed correctly.

    Accurate display of billing information
