We delivered 81 million emails on behalf of our clients. We also hosted over 27 million landing page views and served over 155 million web requests. Our uptime this week was 100%.

Release notes and system status can be found at trust.ontraport.com.

Landing Page Type Selector Removed

When you want to create a new landing page, you’ll now go directly to Ontraport Pages templates instead of a page where you select which type of page you want to create (Ontraport Page, Legacy, Code Mode or Redirect Landing Page). 

This change removes a step in your page creation workflow and caters to the type of page the majority of Ontraport users choose. The other types of pages are still available in the Administration section under Legacy Features.

Paypal Integration Can Charge in Foreign Currency

Instead of just U.S. dollars, accounts can now have PayPal charge in the account currency set in Administration > Data > Localization. This opens up PayPal charges to any currency we support (except for currencies without decimal places such as the Japanese Yen, Hungarian Forint or New Taiwanese Dollar).

This is important for our clients in countries that don’t have any other gateway.

Create and Delete Rules with the API

We have added a new Rule Builder class to PHP SDK for Rules API, as well as the ability to delete Rules via API. This allows for more sophisticated third party integrations, and installations for these third party applications will require less set up on the end user.
