Update Shopify payment method from admin
Customer support can now update the payment method used for Shopify subscriptions directly from the admin portal. On the subscription detail page, a new “Payment method” section shows the current payment method (card brand, last 4 digits, expiry date) and lets you switch to any other payment method the customer has on file in Shopify.
Product group API mutations for non-Shopify merchants
Product groups can now be created and managed via the GraphQL API, making them available to merchants who aren’t using Shopify. Previously, product groups were only created automatically during Shopify product syncs.

Payment retries continue even when invoice reminders are sent
Payment retries for insufficient funds now continue even after invoice reminders are sent. Previously, sending an invoice reminder would cancel all scheduled retries, which prevented customers from being marked as non-paying and broke downstream processes like debt collection and non-paying customer overviews.
Fixed amount discounts now available for referral programs
Referral programs can now use fixed amount discounts for both referee and referrer rewards. Previously, only percentage-based discounts were available for referral settings. This gives you more flexibility in how you reward referrals—for example, offering a flat €10 off instead of a percentage discount.
Review prices safely when changing a subscription country
Teams can change a subscription country when country-specific pricing is enabled and receive a clear reminder to review the affected products and prices.
Product type API field now reflects actual behavior
The productType field in the GraphQL API now consistently reflects whether a product is recurring or one-time, regardless of project type.
Find admin records faster with instant search
Searchable admin dropdowns now show results as soon as they open and offer smoother keyboard navigation across products, promotions, assets, and subscriptions.

Keep cancellation offers available without an upcoming order
Customers can now continue through the cancellation flow even when their subscription has no products or next shipment date. Firmhouse offers the pause option in that situation instead of interrupting the experience.
