Beta - Online Checkout Links, how can I enable this feature?

[VirginiaSumner]

When I tried to create an Online Checkout Link I get a Beta Feature message: "This feature is currently restricted. We are working to make it available to more people, so check back later."

When will this be available in production?  Who is able to use the beta version, and how do I get in on that?

Thanks, this is an exciting feature!

Hi @VirginiaSumner!

This option should be available to all US sellers. 

Are you in the US or CA?

[rdruz]

I am in the US and receiving the same message. Is this option only available through Weebly integration? 

[nika]

Correct @rdruz. Just available through Weebly.

@ashc  I'm also eager to use this feature. When will it be available for Square for Retail in the US?

[ashc]

@kellyj Do you know if this is in beta for Retail as well? Or if it should be available for all US sellers?

[ashc]

Hi again @Trish_Yarn and @VirginiaSumner !

I did some digging and it looks like Checkout Links are only available for Weebly online stores at this time.

We'll be sure to update any threads on this if it becomes available elsewhere such as Retail!

@ashc It's annoying, to say the least, to receive email touting this feature which I still cannot access. Is there no way to filter out my account so that I don't receive promotional emails for features that are not available to me?

Hi there, @Trish_Yarn! I can step in and assist Ashley on this one. 

You can edit all of your email notification preferences from your Online Dashboard:

1. Navigate to Account & Settings
2. Select the Account dropdown
3. Choose Email Notifications

From this space, you can edit what kind of notifications you are interested in receiving. Let us know if you have any additional questions!

Hi @Joe , thanks for following up. I'm familiar with how to customize my notifications, but my point is that I'm getting notifications about features that aren't available to me. There's no option in my account settings to opt out of these kinds of notices.

Ah, thanks for clarifying that @Trish_Yarn. As of now, you are correct - there is no way to remove specific feature updates for produces that are not available to you. I am passing your feedback along to our Product Teams!
