We've updated the behavior of the Checkout Widget to automatically reflect customer's billing address in generated invoices.

🆕 What's New

• The billing address that's collected via the Stigg Checkout Widget is now stored on the Stripe Customer object - before this change, the billing address was stored as part of the customer's payment method details.
• The billing address that customers enter in the Stigg Checkout Widget is now automatically reflected in generated invoices.

⭐️ Why It Matters

Including a customer's billing address on invoices is required for legal, tax, and compliance reasons in many jurisdictions.

⚒️ Get Started

To reflect this behavior, simply update the relevant Stigg frontend SDK to the latest version. 

If you're not leveraging the Stigg Checkout yet, click here to learn more how you can accept payments without ever worrying about changes to your pricing model or migration to another billing provider.

📦 Availability

The new behavior is available to all customers that leverage the Stigg Checkout widget together with Stigg's integration with Stripe.

This functionality is available in the following SDK versions:

• React SDK: v8.1.0
• Vue SDK: v6.1.0
• Embed SDK: v7.1.0

We've expanded the Stigg AI Credit Suite to allow you to easily link recurring credit grants to metered features (such as seats), automatically creating shared credit pools as your customers' teams grow.

🆕 What’s New

SaaS vendors can now define a specific number of included credits for every additional seat a customer purchases. When a new seat is added to a subscription, the relevant credit amount is automatically added to the customer's available balance.

Even better, these granted credits aren't siloed per user. Added credits can be shared across all seats, creating a unified shared seat-based credit pool that anyone in the organization can draw from.

⭐️ Why It Matters

• Scalable Pricing Models: Seamlessly tie your credit allocations to team growth. Provide a compelling package where adding more users naturally scales the organization's overall credit limit (e.g., "Get 1,000 AI credits per month for every seat").
• Maximum Flexibility for Customers: Simplify credit management for your users. Instead of individual users running out of credits while others have a surplus, the entire organization shares a single pool to maximize utilization.
• Automated Entitlement Operations: Say goodbye to manual adjustments. When a customer expands their team and adds new seats, Stigg handles the math and automatically provisions the correct amount of additional credits to their shared pool.

⚒️ Get Started

To configure a seat-based recurring credit grant:

1. Navigate to the Stigg App.
2. Create or edit a plan or add-on.
3. Add your credit as an entitlement.
4. Click on the "Link" icon to associate the credit grant with another entitlement to a metered feature (such as seats).
5. Define the amount of credits to be granted for each unit of the linked feature.
6. Publish the changes.

Once a customer subscribes, their shared credit pool will instantly update whenever a new seat is added!

We are excited to bring more billing flexibility directly to your fingertips. When manually updating subscriptions to paid plans within the Stigg app, you now have complete control over how billing cycles and prorations are handled.

🆕 What’s New

You no longer need to rely on API calls to manage complex billing logic during subscription changes. When modifying an active subscription via the Stigg app UI, you can now configure:

• Billing anchor: Decide whether to keep the billing cycle exactly as it is (leave unchanged, which is the default) or immediately reset the billing cycle to the current timestamp.

• Proration behavior: Choose exactly how to handle the financial impact of the subscription change:

  • Invoice immediately: Generate and collect payment for the prorated amount right now.
  • Include in next invoice: Create the proration items but defer the charge until the next standard billing cycle.
  • Don't prorate: Disable prorations entirely for this specific update.

⭐️ Why It Matters

• Ultimate flexibility: Tailor the billing experience to specific customer scenarios. Whether you are executing an immediate mid-cycle upgrade, a requested downgrade, or a custom-negotiated contract change, you can ensure the invoice matches the agreement.
• Operational independence: Customer Success and Sales teams can safely make these complex billing adjustments instantly via the UI, without needing to loop in engineering to write custom scripts.

📦 Availability

The above configuration are fully supported when Stigg is integrated with Stripe, Zuora, or with a custom billing solution.

vWe are excited to announce a new capability that gives you more control over your customers' billing cycles when provisioning and updating subscriptions to paid plans and add-ons.

🆕 What’s New

You can now pass the billingCycleAnchor property with the following values when provisioning and updating subscriptions:

1. SubscriptionBillingCycleAnchor.UNCHANGED - keep the billing cycle anchor unchanged (the default behavior).

2. SubscriptionBillingCycleAnchor.NOW - reset the billing cycle anchor to the current timestamp.

⭐️ Why It Matters

This update introduces additional flexibility in how you bill customers for their subscription changes. By choosing whether to maintain the existing billing date or reset it to the moment the change occurs, you have fine-grained control over subscription cycles, prorations, and your customers' invoicing experience.

📦 Availability

The billingCycleAnchor property is fully supported when Stigg is integrated with Stripe, Zuora or with a custom billing solution. 

The new parameter is available in the following SDK versions:

• Node SDK: v4.33.1
• Python / Java / Go / .NET SDKs: v6.6.1
• Ruby: v6.4.0
• JavaScript SDK: v3.102.1

We've added an ability to control how credit entitlements behave when customers purchase an add-on, giving you even more flexibility to model your pricing exactly the way you want.

🆕 What’s New?

Previously, when a customer purchased an add-on containing credits, the add-on amount would automatically increment their existing plan limit.

With the additional Entitlement Behavior setting, you can now choose exactly how those credits interact with the base plan. You can set the behavior to either:

1. Increment plan limit (Default): The add-on credits are added on top of the base plan's credit limit. (e.g., A plan with 100 credits + an add-on for 50 credits = 150 total credits).
2. Override plan limit: The add-on completely replaces the base plan's credit limit. (e.g., A plan with 100 credits + an override add-on for 500 credits = 500 total credits).

⭐️ Why Does This Matter?

This added flexibility is perfect for businesses that use credits for monetizing their products. It allows you to:

• Create Upgraded Credit Tiers: Offer add-ons that act as strict upgrades rather than cumulative top-ups, ensuring your customers are bumped to a specific new tier of credits without complex math.
• Tailor the Customer Experience: Give your customers exactly the amount of credits they paid for through custom, bespoke add-ons that act as strict limit overrides.

⚒️  Get Started

Configuring this behavior takes just a few clicks within the Stigg app:

1. Open the selected add-on.
2. Add a new credit entitlement (or edit an existing one) under the Entitlements section.
3. In the entitlement settings, locate the “Entitlement behavior” dropdown.
4. Select either “Increment plan limit” or “Override plan limit”.
5. Save the configuration and hit Publish for the changes to take effect!

We’re giving you even more control over your custom enterprise deals by bringing variable recurring credit grants directly into Stigg Workflows.

🆕 What’s New

You can now automate the provisioning of subscriptions to custom plans that include variable recurring credit grants using Stigg Workflows. This allows you to dynamically set and pass the exact credit allocation needed for an individual customer directly through an automated workflow.

⭐️ Why It Matters

• Support custom monetization flows: Seamlessly weave variable credit grants into your unique onboarding, upgrade, and provisioning logic.
• Bypass CRM API limits: Offload complex provisioning logic to Stigg, which is especially helpful if your Salesforce environment is constrained by strict external API call limits.
• Superior debugging and troubleshooting: Take advantage of the robust monitoring and error-handling capabilities built into Stigg Workflows, offering a smoother and more transparent experience compared to native tools like Salesforce Flows.
• Connect any system: Easily integrate custom credit provisioning with other CRMs, billing engines, or internal tools that Stigg doesn't natively integrate with today.

⚒️ Get Started

To start provisioning custom grants via Workflows, simply add a Provision Subscription or Update Subscription action node to your workflow canvas.

Inside the node's configuration, locate the Credit Entitlements section. From there, dynamically pass the relevant credit currency and the specific variable entitlement value you want to grant.

For a deeper dive into configuring these nodes, check out our documentation on Stigg Workflows and Workflow actions.

📦 Availability

This capability is available immediately for all customers utilizing Stigg Workflows.

We’ve extended our Salesforce integration to support the provisioning of recurring credit grants, smoothly bridging the gap between your sales motions and credit provisioning.

🆕 What’s New

Vendors can now provision subscriptions to custom plans with variable recurring credit grants directly from within Salesforce. 

When closing a deal, your sales team can easily input the exact custom credit allocation agreed upon in the Salesforce contract, and Stigg will immediately execute the grant.

⭐️ Why It Matters

• Automate sales-led provisioning: Fully automate the provisioning of sales-led, credit-based subscriptions without requiring manual intervention from your RevOps or engineering teams.
• Accelerate time-to-value: Ensure enterprise customers get instant access to their uniquely negotiated credit limits the moment a deal is closed in Salesforce.
• Maintain a single source of truth: Keep your CRM and entitlement data perfectly in sync, reducing human error and streamlining your quote-to-cash workflow.

⚒️ Get Started

To enable this functionality, you'll need to map your credit products in Salesforce to your credit types in Stigg. 

To do so, navigate to your Salesforce environment, locate the relevant credit product, and set the Stigg type field to Credit entitlement. Once mapped, variable credit grants can be defined and passed through during the standard subscription provisioning flow within Salesforce.

For more detailed setup instructions, check out our documentation on the Salesforce integration and entity mapping.

📦 Availability

This feature is available for customers using the Stigg app for Salesforce v1.13.0 or later.

We’ve rolled out a sleek visual update to the Stigg app to make managing pricing, packaging and entitlements an even better experience.

🆕 What’s New

Both our light and dark mode themes have received a comprehensive design refresh. We've meticulously updated our color palettes, refined our interface components, and polished our typography across the entire platform to give the app a more modern and cohesive feel.

⭐️ Why It Matters

• Improved usability: A cleaner interface helps you navigate complex pricing models and customer data with greater ease and speed.
• Enhanced consistency: Unified design patterns and components across all screens ensure a familiar and intuitive experience, no matter which part of the app you are using.
• Better readability: Optimized contrast levels and refined typography reduce eye strain and make your data - from entitlement limits to billing metrics - much easier to parse at a glance.

⚒️ Get Started

There's no action required on your end - the new UI is already live in your account!

If you'd like to toggle between the newly updated light and dark modes to see which one you prefer, simply click on the icon in the top-left corner of the app.

📦 Availability

This UI update is now live and automatically available for all Stigg users across all environments.

We’ve introduced a lightning-fast way for developers to retrieve and display customer credit balances, ensuring your in-app experiences remain snappy and scalable.

🆕 What’s New

Developers can now utilize the new getCreditEntitlement() endpoint to instantly retrieve a customer's current credit balance. When recurring grants are included in plans and add-ons the response will include their next reset date.

Built on top of Stigg's highly scalable infrastructure, this endpoint is served directly from the Edge. For maximum performance, when integrated with Stigg's persistent cache, this data can be accessed with < 10ms latency.

⭐️ Why It Matters

• Exceptional User Experience: Presenting real-time credit balances and reset dates to your customers is crucial for transparency. 
• Built for Scale: By serving requests from the Edge and for persistent cahce, this endpoint is designed to handle massive traffic spikes effortlessly.

⚒️ Get Started

To implement this, simply update your Stigg SDK to the latest version and call the getCreditEntitlement() method for the relevant customer. 

For detailed implementation instructions, check out the SDK documentation, as well as our guides on leveraging Persistent Caching.

📦 Availability

This functionality is available now in the following SDK and service versions:

• Node SDK: v4.30.1
• Python / Ruby / Java / Go / .NET SDKs: v6.40.0
• JavaScript SDK: v3.99.1
• Sidecar SDK: v6.7.3
• Persistent Cache Service: v3.1.1

We've enhanced our custom plan capabilities, giving you the flexibility to negotiate and define custom recurring credit limits for your enterprise customers on the fly.

🆕 What’s New

Vendors can now define recurring credit entitlements within custom plans as variable.

Just like other variable entitlements in Stigg, this means you no longer need to create separate plans for each closed contract. Instead, leverage Stigg's custom plans as templates for contract negotiation and specify the actual value of the recurring credit grant upon subscription provisioning.

Currently, monthly and yearly recurring grants without rollover are supported for variable limits.

⭐️ Why It Matters

• Enterprise-grade flexibility: Tailor included credit limits to match the specific needs and negotiated terms of individual enterprise deals without cluttering your product catalog with one-off plans.
• Streamlined sales motions: Empower your sales and success teams to easily adjust recurring credit allocations right at the moment of closing the deal or provisioning the subscription.
• Automated provisioning workflows: Once the custom value is set during provisioning, Stigg automatically handles the monthly or yearly recurring grants based on that specific amount for the lifetime of the subscription.

⚒️ Get Started

To grant custom credit grants:

1. Navigate to the Stigg App.

2. Create or edit a custom plan.

3. Add your credit as an entitlement. When defining the entitlement, mark the entitlement value as variable and choose a monthly or yearly recurring cadence.

4. If you have not done so already - specify the metered features that will be used for credit consumption.

5. Publish the changes.

Then, when provisioning a subscription for a customer (either via the Stigg App or through the Stigg API), you will be prompted to input the negotiated recurring credit limit for that specific subscriber.

📦 Availability

The new functionality is available to all Stigg customers.

Programmatic provisioning of subscriptions with custom recurring grant entitlements is supported in the following SDK versions:

• Node.js: v4.30.1
• Python / Ruby / Go / Java / .NET: v6.40.0
• Sidecar SDK: v6.7.3
• JavaScript SDK: v3.99.1
