You can now offer your customers a broader choice of payment methods and thus improve your checkout experience.

A gift card Payment Integration should always be coupled with other Payment Integrations. This way, when your customers pay with a gift card and the balance on the card is lower than the cart's total, they can select other payment methods to pay the difference.

The Payment Only mode is ideal if you want to keep the existing checkout flow on your storefront and use Checkout's payment functionality to accept payments. In fact, the mode lets you take advantage of Checkout's secure payment capabilities without having to adjust other elements of your existing checkout experience, such as address forms or success and failure pages.

To use Checkout in Payment Only mode, you need to:

• Create at least one Application of the Payment Only type.
• Call the paymentFlow SDK method to initialize Checkout.

If required, you can create Applications of both the Payment Only type and the Complete Checkout type for the same Project but for different countries or URLs.

Checkout is now available as a built-in application in the Merchant Center. This provides easier access to the application and reduces the setup time. Previously, you had to manually install the application for each Project or Organization.

By default, a custom payment method has no description and its label is the key provided by the payment Connector. Previously, you could not edit the label nor add a description. Now, you can customize the related properties like you can for standard payment methods. This helps you show your customers better text on the checkout page.

To use Checkout in Payment Only mode, you need to:

• Create at least one Application of the Payment Only type.
• Call the paymentFlow SDK method to initialize Checkout.

If required, you can create Applications of both the Payment Only type and the Complete checkout type for the same Project but for different countries or URLs.

This new feature helps you tailor the address forms and summary in your checkout experience to your business scenario.

In addition, further new messages are available to receive feedback from more events.

You can now display the commercetools Checkout UI component inline with your content, such as a custom header or footer. This gives you flexibility in managing the appearance of your checkout experience. Previously, the Checkout UI component appeared full screen and hid the content on your page, which is also the default behavior.

You can now subscribe to notifications for your PayPal payment connector. To provide notifications about the status of the payment process, PayPal uses webhooks to call back the commercetools Checkout application.

By adding a mock payment connector, you can now run your checkout flow from start to finish for test purposes or proofs of concept, with few configuration steps and without connecting to a payment service provider (PSP).
