It's again been a month loaded with new features and improvements, making several areas in Twice significantly better and easier to work with. This post introduces the product update highlights from the previous month.

We have added support for charging pre-authorized deposits with Stripe. Previously we supported deposits only in Twice Payments, meaning the deposit feature was unavailable outside the European Economic Area.
With this long-awaited and highly requested update, merchants using Stripe can now better protect themselves against damage, theft, late cancellations, etc.
For instructions on setting up and managing deposits, visit our help center.
Customers view lists all your customers, their contact details, and relevant information about their purchase history. You can, for example, see a customer's lifetime value and how many orders the customer has placed in the past. You can also filter the data and export views as CSV.
You may expect many future updates and improvements to the now-published version. Eventually, the Customer view will replace the 'Marketing List'.
We have added a possibility to toggle on/off automatic emails sent from Twice. The update introduces a new 'Emails' tab under Settings, where you can choose which emails are automatically sent by Twice to your customers. We have also added the possibility of sending test emails to your own email address to preview the automated emails.
This feature is helpful if you want to build event-based email workflows outside Twice using webhooks and third-party email tools like MailChimp.

We have added the support for defining pricing for two new time units: months and minutes. Previously our settings have supported pricing by the hour, day, and week. The new time units add much more flexibility in creating short and long-term rental options for your products.
We have updated the Twice Admin to use a fresh new logo and color scheme. This update also brings a large amount of UI consistency improvements and other minor fixes to the look and feel of Twice.
We hope you like it!
We have added a bunch of new customization options to the Online Store. These updates include:
In this release, we are introducing several long-awaited updates to Delivery settings.
The delivery handling times have received a UI update, making them easier to understand and set up. Handling times can now also be defined to only count weekdays (Mon-Fri) or days when your store is open.
Delivery options now allow you to control how they behave together with your opening hours. You can define whether delivery, pick-up, and self-return options are available on days when your store is closed.
We have also reduced the Delivery Platform prices for all plans. The new price for the Delivery Platform is now $0.9/booking, regardless of your plan. The new prices are valid for new bookings from the 7th of November.
This update also fixes various minor bugs and inconsistent behavior related to delivery timeslots and availability.
You can choose to embed the store locations page with the Twice Embed Builder. Moreover, we have fixed the issue where embedded Twice stores did not always correctly scroll to the top of the embed section when browsing between pages.
We have made several improvements to the Inventory view to improve its usability. The updates include:
Moreover, you can now create new SKUs for newly created products directly from the Product's Availability tab. This removes the need to move back and forth between the Product Catalog and Inventory when connecting new products to the inventory.
