Changelog

Follow new updates and improvements to Creem.

September 17th, 2026

We rebuilt Creem end to end. Every surface you touch has been migrated to the Creem 2.0: a cleaner shell, a responsive collapsing sidebar with a proper mobile drawer, and one consistent visual grammar across the whole product. There’s a lot of new features, products and updates on this one!

Come check us out in Product Hunt today!

Today we are also celebrating our new seed round!

You can see a great launch explaining our next steps in the Product Hunt launch page!

What shipped in Creem 2.0, at a glance

  • Custom domain checkout: run checkout on your own domain, fully branded.

  • Usage based billing: credit wallets, usage based pricing and custom meters, set up in a prompt.

  • Short links: redirects, a QR studio and password protected links as a native growth loop.

  • Run your store with AI agents: MCP, full API coverage and a CLI that set up, run and monitor the store.

  • Affiliates v2: commission configurable per product and per affiliate, fully manageable through the API.

  • Embeddable checkout: a checkout that pops up directly inside your website or store.

  • New payment methods: AliPay and a native Apple Pay button.

  • Broader tax coverage: more countries handled for you automatically.

  • Mobile and desktop app: native iOS and macOS apps to monitor your store.

  • Storefront attribution: see where your sales actually come from.

  • A full platform redesign, plus Light Mode.

  • A Partner plan for teams that want white glove treatment.

Short links

Turn any CREEM product into a clean, shareable link in seconds. Short Links give you a branded, easy to remember URL that sends customers straight to checkout or to a custom URL, no setup, no code, no friction.

What it is

Short Links are compact, custom URLs that point directly to your product or checkout page. Instead of sharing a long, messy link, you get something short and professional you can drop anywhere: a bio, a DM, an email, a tweet, a QR code.

What you can do with it

• Create a short link for any URL or checkout in one click
• Customize the slug so the link matches your brand or campaign
• Share the same link across every channel and track how it performs
• Update where a link points without ever changing the URL you already shared

Common use cases

Creator in a bio: Drop one short link in your X or Instagram bio that goes straight your website. When you launch something new, repoint the link, your bio never needs editing.

Cold outreach and DMs: Sending a product to a prospect? A short, trustworthy link converts far better than a long string of characters that looks like spam.

Launch campaigns: Spin up a unique short link to your website per channel (newsletter, Discord, Product Hunt) so you can see exactly where your sales are coming from, who clicked and who converted.

Physical and offline: Print a short link or QR code on packaging, a business card, or a conference booth and send people straight to your product.

Clicks and conversions are measured automatically, and your attribution works seamlessly without any configuration. If someone opened your website through a short link, you will know when they convert, and which link they clicked!



The best part

Short Links are completely free for every CREEM merchant. No add on, no tier, no extra cost. It is built in and ready the moment you need it.

Usage Based Billing & Credits

The one you have been asking for since spring. Charge for what your customers actually use.

  • Metered pricing on products with a live preview as you configure it

  • A Meters dashboard to define and manage what you track

  • Public usage API to send events and read meters at /v1/events and /v1/meters

  • Prepaid credits customers can fund, with per unit metering against the balance

  • Auto refill and threshold top ups so a customer never runs dry mid usage

  • Credits exhausted recovery: a customer email plus a merchant webhook when the balance hits zero

  • Usage and credit webhooks (granted, consumed, auto recharged) and a customer credits accounts API

  • Splits and affiliate commission now apply to auto refill orders too, so refills pay their share

Custom Checkout Domains

Run checkout on your own domain, not ours. Full brand continuity from product page to payment complete.

  • Mint checkout and payment link URLs on your store's active custom domain

  • A dedicated Settings tab to add and manage your domains

  • Your public storefront served at the root of your custom domain

  • Apple Pay and Google Pay light up automatically once the domain is verified

Introducing the Partner plan



Once you scale, payments stop being a feature and start being a department. Tax and compliance, fraud investigators, analysts, acceptance rate and payment performance teams, the headcount adds up fast, and it is expensive to build in house.

The Partner Plan gives you that entire team without hiring it. Creem plugs in as an extension of your own, and we scale your payments operation with you, as partners.

A team that knows your name
- A dedicated account manager with a direct phone number and WhatsApp, 24/7
- A private Slack channel straight to the Creem team
- Weekly payments concierge sessions: a real person goes through your payments, customers and subscriptions to find revenue you are leaving on the table and lift your operation's performance

Money that moves your way
- On demand payouts, no waiting for a schedule
- A shorter risk hold on the payments you receive
- Lower fees across the board
- 0% fees on revenue splits and affiliates
- A Creem Visa card shipped to you, spend your balance directly

A seat at the table
- Direct influence on our roadmap and product direction, the things you need get built

If you are scaling fast and want Creem working as an extension of your team, let's talk.

Smarter Tax & VAT at Checkout

Our tax engine got a lot more precise, and a lot more honest with your customers.

  • Pre checkout VAT ID validation, so business buyers enter a valid ID before they pay

  • Native tax ID flow built into checkout with the statutory rate shown clearly

  • Address first checkout: we hint the country up front and collect the right billing details

  • Per store tax provider selection

  • A daily tax drift sweep that probes where we are collecting versus where we should be, with alerts when a registered jurisdiction is not collecting

Revenue Splits, Affiliates That Run Themselves

  • Multiple recipients per revenue split

  • Store wide splits and multi product split assignment

  • Manage revenue splits through the public API

  • Per split refund clawback setting, so you decide how refunds flow back

  • Revoke split invites and clean up orphaned invites, with clear "invite expired" messaging

  • A full affiliate application and approval workflow, with an honest pending state for applicants

  • Automatic affiliate enrollment after purchase, turn buyers into partners on autopilot

  • Per affiliate commission overrides

  • Affiliate invitation API and an editable affiliate program slug

  • Leave program action in the affiliate portal, and a single unified Affiliate Hub screen

Storefronts

  • View any product click analytics on your public storefront

  • Storefront originated orders attributed correctly

  • Your own visits excluded from the storefront view count

  • Merchant facing storefront stats surfaced on your Settings card

Developer & API

  • Webhook endpoint health surface: we now tell you (and email you) when an endpoint goes down, and let you reset it after a fix

  • Public usage API, affiliate API and revenue splits API, all documented in repo

  • OpenAPI expanded to cover events, meters and customer credits

  • API keys fail closed when a key has no scopes, and the scope picker now offers splits and affiliate scopes

Mobile

Our mobile app is now released in AppStore and Google Playstore!

We are very happy to have you in this journey with us, and we are extremely excited about this new chapter of CREEM!

Lots of love,
The Creem Team

July 24th, 2026

July was about giving you more ways to get paid, more room to grow, and a checkout that keeps getting sharper. New payment methods went live, the developer API grew up, affiliates got smarter, and disputes got a whole lot less painful. Let's dig in 👇

💳 Alipay Is Live at Checkout

More ways for your customers to pay. Alipay is now available on one-time checkouts, riding on our payment orchestration engine, with the right method shown automatically and displayed cleanly across your dashboard and order views. Another payment method down, more on the way.

🧷 Embed Creem Anywhere: Sell & Buy Buttons

Take Creem out into the world with a set of embeddable snippets you drop straight into your own site.

  • Sell with Creem badge to credit Creem and capture referral attribution

  • Buy with Creem button that opens checkout right from your product page or docs

  • Powered by Creem badge for a clean trust signal
    Find them in Balances → Referrals and per product in your dashboard.

🛠️ A Bigger, Better Developer API

The API grew up this month.

  • Full CRUD for Products and Prices so you can create, read, update, and archive products programmatically

  • Refund a payment via API with a single transaction ID call, no manual steps

  • Read only Affiliate API to list partners, pull summaries, and read commissions

  • framer.com official plugin released added

  • More reliable and data rich webhooks

🛡️ Disputes, Handled Properly

Chargebacks used to be booked as an automatic loss the moment they landed. Now they run through a real lifecycle.

  • Full dispute lifecycle: disputes open as pending, and a win is treated as a win instead of being silently swallowed

  • Dispute email alerts the moment a dispute arrives, with the order context, the card network reason, and a window to reply with evidence
    Less guesswork, fewer losses by default.

🎯 Smarter Affiliate & Discount Tooling

  • Flexible commission terms: one time or recurring, duration caps, and fixed amount payouts, so you can turn on an affiliate program without committing to lifetime revenue share

  • Assign discount codes to affiliates, and affiliates now see their own code

  • Affiliate Hub upgrades: a Code Uses column and channel aware conversion rates, so code-driven partners no longer read as 0%

  • Remove partners from the Affiliate Hub when you need to

  • Discount code attributed affiliate sales now pay out correctly

  • Search your discount codes list to find any promo fast

✨ Product & Checkout Upgrades

  • Multi image product gallery with up to 8 images, drag to reorder, and a cover badge, plus a cross fade gallery on checkout

  • Embedded checkout polish: overlay modal uses full desktop space, sturdier embed detection so framed checkout never self redirects, and affiliate attribution that survives internal navigation

  • WebP product images are now supported, with clearer upload failure messages

🧪 Developer Experience

  • Daily billing period in Test Mode so you can run through renewal flows without waiting out a month

  • Deep linking to payment and order detail pages for faster navigation

  • Payments export respects your selected date range

📊 Merchant Visibility

  • Merchant risk metrics page showing your chargeback and refund rates at a glance

  • Decline codes surfaced in your dashboard so you know why a payment failed

  • Functional analytics period selector with a sensible weekly default

🐞 Smooth Fixes

  • Dunning subscriptions now send subscription.expired promptly and surface cancellation in the receipt email

  • Mobile fixes across the products dashboard and balances header

🚀 What's Next

  • Usage Based Billing with prepaid and postpaid metering

  • Wallets inside embedded checkout and more new payment methods

Lots of love,

June 19th, 2026

June was about momentum that compounds. We launched a brand-new way to get rewarded for spreading the word, made sure no good payment ever silently fails, brought checkout inside your product, let your customers pay with a tap and we went to France living alongside the builders we exist to serve!

🇫🇷 UNEED Residency: A Week With the Builders

This month we packed our bags for Nantes, France and the UNEED Residency — a full week living and shipping shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the sharpest indie hackers and bootstrapped founders in Europe. 🚀

This is exactly why Creem exists. Not slide decks and conference badges,real builders, in one house, betting on themselves and shipping real products. We sponsor these residencies because the energy inside them is the company: founders helping founders, late-night debugging, launches going live over coffee, and the kind of honest feedback you only get face to face.

We came back with a notebook full of ideas (several of which are already in this changelog), a bunch of new friends, and a deeper conviction in who we're building for.

Want to experience UNEED for yourself? Use code CREEMXUNEED for 50% off.

To everyone in Nantes who made it unforgettable — thank you. 💜 This is the beginning of a lot more time on the road with our community.

🎁 Introducing the Creem Referral Program

Get paid to grow the family. Invite other builders to Creem and earn real cash when they get going.

  • Grab your link — once your store is verified and you've taken your first payout, your referral link unlocks in Balances → Referrals

  • They build, you earn — when a merchant you referred crosses $1,000 in paid-out volume, they qualify

  • $50 per qualified referral, credited to your Creem balance after a 30-day clearing window

  • Track every invite, its status, and your earnings right from your dashboard

Share Creem, help another founder win, get rewarded. 🍦

Read the docs →

🔁 Smart Retry — Stop Losing Revenue to Failed Renewals

A failed card shouldn't mean a lost customer. Every subscription now runs on an intelligent 14-day retry schedule (6 attempts, smartly spaced) instead of giving up after one decline.

  • Automatic recovery — we keep retrying on a proven cadence before a sub ever lapses

  • "Retry Payment" button — when a customer updates their card on a past-due subscription, they can charge it immediately instead of waiting for the next retry window

  • Clean exhaustion — subscriptions only cancel after the full retry schedule is genuinely spent

Less involuntary churn, more revenue recovered on autopilot.

💳 Apple Pay & Google Pay Are Live

The wallets you asked for are here. Customers can now check out with Apple Pay and Google Pay — one tap, no card typing, higher conversion on mobile. First wave of new payment methods riding on our new orchestration engine, with more rolling out next.

Smooth Updates🍦

Here’s a visual flashback to a Thursday in May when we parked our truck in the middle of a world-famous tech conference. And handed out FREE ☕️ and 🍦 to founders.

🧩 Embedded Checkout — Sell Without Sending Customers Away

Embed Creem checkout directly inside your own product — no redirect, no drop-off.

  • Framework SDK wrappers for React, Vue, and Svelte — drop checkout in with a component

  • iFrame-native flow built for conversion, with affiliate tracking that survives the embed

Keep customers in your flow, in your brand, all the way to "payment complete."

🌍 Localization — Everywhere, In Their Language

  • Dashboard Localization — manage your store in your language

  • Customer Portal Localization — your buyers manage subscriptions in theirs

  • Custom checkout locale — set the checkout language per session

Set it once. Sell everywhere, in the right words.

✨ Smoother Payments & Billing

  • $0 payment-method updates — updating a card no longer triggers a confusing temporary $1 charge; it's now a clean $0 verification

  • Payout visibility — clearer status for payouts currently being processed

⚡ Payment Orchestration — The Migration Is Done

The orchestration upgrade from May is fully in place.

🛡️ Trust & Safety — A Cleaner Platform for Real Builders

Most of you will never see this — and that's the point. We shipped a full risk-monitoring layer that catches fraud and drift before money moves: chargeback protection in the payment flow, device-level checkout signals (FingerprintJS) + redirect-chain fraud detection, and per-store risk scoring. Fewer bad actors means faster approvals and cleaner payouts for the honest builders Creem is built for.

🔗 Developer Experience

  • Public OpenAPI spec — fetch the full machine-readable API at /open-api/json and /open-api/yaml and auto-generate typed clients

  • Discount data now exposed across all webhooks and APIs — accurate revenue attribution for every promo

  • More reliable outbound webhooks (transient-error retries) and a faster public transactions search API

  • Fixed: API-key modal copy, checkout breaking under browser auto-translate, CLI login pointing to a dead link

🚀 What's Next

  • Pay What You Want pricing

  • Wallets inside embedded checkout + more new payment methods

  • Full CRUD API for products, discounts, and prices

More shipping soon… stay tuned!

Lots of love,

Creem Changelog - May 2026🍦

Vietnam Hacker Residency

At Creem, May is about giving your audience more ways to join, more flexibility in how you price, and a whole new way to manage your store on the go.

Payment Orchestration


Every transaction now routes through the smartest path available.

Higher acceptance rates. Fewer failed checkouts. More revenue you were leaving on the table without knowing it. This also unlocks a wave of new payment methods — PayPal, Pix, AliPay, and more rolling out soon. Your customers pay how they want, wherever they are.

One thing to know: we migrated all existing subscriptions to the new system. You might notice a small, temporary dip in conversions from previously active subscriptions as some customers' payment details need refreshing. New subscriptions are completely unaffected. If any subscribers hit a hiccup, they can update their payment method directly in the customer portal, takes 30 seconds.

This is a foundation-level upgrade. Better routing, broader reach, fewer dropped payments. The kind of infrastructure that compounds over time.

Payout Migration 🚨


As part of the orchestration upgrade, we're phasing out Stripe Connect as a payout method.

The good news: if Stripe Connect has been your main payout method, you're grandfathered in. We're covering your transfer fees ourselves so you keep enjoying 0% fees on payouts. No catch, no fine print. You've been with us, we've got you.

We now support direct bank payouts in 86 countries. Head to Balance → Payout Account in your Creem dashboard and add your bank account before your next payout on June 1. It takes about two minutes.

Don't leave it for the last minute, if you miss the June 1 cutoff your payout will roll to the next cycle.

🔗 Public Affiliate Signup Links

No more individual invites.

Generate a single public affiliate link and share it anywhere - in your docs, your Discord, your tweets. Anyone can click it and join your affiliate program instantly, no friction, no manual approval loops.

🌍 Regional Pricing

Regional Pricing lets you set country or region-specific prices based on local purchasing power. Make your products more accessible in emerging markets, stay competitive globally, and capture demand you were leaving on the table.

Set it once. Sell everywhere.

Our Ice Cream machine at the Vietnam Hacker Residency

Vietnam was one for the books. 🇻🇳

We spent a week alongside some of the most driven indie builders on the planet — people shipping real products, betting on themselves, doing the thing. That's exactly the kind of energy Creem was built for.

We sponsor these hacker houses because we genuinely believe in the people inside them.

Creem Changelog - March 2026 🍦

Grab a March Scoop →

AI Agent Onboarding 🤖


Send your AI agent to Creem.

We're making it dead simple for AI agents to integrate with Creem:

  • creem.io/SKILL.md: a machine-readable skill file your AI agent can consume to learn the Creem API, SDK, webhooks, and CLI workflows

  • creem.io/HEARTBEAT.md: periodic check instructions for agents to monitor their Creem store

  • One-click CTA on the homepage: copy a preset instruction to paste into your agent's config

  • Built for OpenClaw, Claude, Cursor, Perplexity personal computer, or any agent that you use

Just tell your agent: "Read creem.io/SKILL.md" and it knows how to integrate with Creem. No docs reading required.

CREEM CLI 💻

Your terminal is now a Creem dashboard.

Manage your entire store from the command line:

  • creem login/logout/whoami — authenticate and switch environments

  • creem products list/get — browse your catalog

  • creem checkouts create/get — spin up checkout sessions

  • creem subscriptions list/get/cancel/pause/resume — full subscription lifecycle

  • creem customers list/get — customer management

  • creem config set environment live/test — switch between test and live mode

  • creem migrate lemon-squeezy — one-command migration from Lemon Squeezy with dry-run support

Install via Homebrew:

brew tap armitage-labs/creem && brew install creem 


Ships alongside the new @creem/sdk — our official Node.js SDK with full TypeScript types and async pagination.


Multi-Key API with Granular Scopes 🔑

One store, multiple API keys, each with its own permissions.

You asked for finer control over your API access. Now you have it.

  • Create multiple API keys per store instead of just one

  • Granular scopes: restrict keys to specific resources and actions (e.g. products:read, checkouts:write)

  • Wildcard support: *:* for full access, products:* for all product operations

  • Named keys: label each key by purpose (e.g. "Backend", "Agent", "Read-only Dashboard")

  • Existing keys automatically migrated with full *:* access, nothing breaks

Give your backend full access. Give your AI agent read-only. Give your frontend just what it needs. No more sharing a single key everywhere.

Metrics API
Your dashboard data, now available via API.



Access your store analytics programmatically through the new /v1/stats/summary endpoint:

Aggregated totals: product count, active subscriptions, customers, gross & net revenue, MRR
Time-series data: add an interval param (day, week, month) to get periodic breakdowns
Date range filtering: startDate and endDate as Unix timestamps to slice any period
Currency support: query in EUR or USD
• Smart bucketing: time series starts from your first transaction, no empty leading data points

All monetary amounts in cents. Authenticated via API key with stats:read scope.

Build custom dashboards, pipe data into your BI tools, or let your AI agent monitor your store's performance.

View the docs →

Subscription Recovery

Never lose revenue silently.

  • Failed payment emails: when a charge fails, your customer gets an automatic email with a link to update their payment method

  • Scheduled cancellation webhook: subscription.scheduled_cancel fires when a subscription is set to cancel at period end

  • Improved expiration handling: better job locking and batching for high-volume stores

Invoice PDFs in Emails 📎

Receipt emails now include the full invoice PDF as an attachment.

  • Pre-signed URLs at send time (no expired links)

  • Unicode & CJK support: Korean, Chinese, Japanese characters render correctly

No more "where's my invoice?" support tickets.

Checkout Improvements 💳

  • iOS Safari auto-zoom fix: no more zoom when tapping inputs on iPhone

  • Price clarity: header shows correct gross price and discounts

  • Restyled buyer terms page and legal reference


Improvements

  • Product API: features and custom_fields now included in GET responses

  • Dashboard: analytics charts layout readjust depending on resolution and viewport

  • Fixed analytics charts compressed at certain widths

  • Fixed duplicate license keys created for same order

  • Affiliate links: auto-update when program settings change

What's Next

  • New payment methods 👀

Closing Thoughts

March was about giving you more control over your stack. Scoped API keys so you can lock things down. A CLI so you can work from your terminal. AI agent onboarding so your agents can integrate themselves. And a rebuilt verification pipeline so you can start selling faster.

Plus $8K in Scoops waiting for builders and creators.

We're not slowing down 🍦

January 6th, 2026

At Creem, we don’t believe in small, timid releases.

And this month? It’s a big scoop.

We’ve shipped a wave of improvements across analytics accuracy, dashboards, webhooks, subscriptions, affiliates, SDKs, and infrastructure, all aimed at giving you more confidence, more control, and faster iteration as you scale.

As always: we ship fast, we listen closely, and we optimize for real-world usage.

📊 Better Accuracy Across All Metrics

We’ve significantly improved dashboard correctness and internal consistency across GMV, revenue, fees, payouts, and balances.

What this means:

  • Numbers now match across dashboard, exports, and webhooks

  • Cleaner attribution of fees and payouts

  • Fewer edge cases as volume scales

    Balances now correctly reflect all fees, including payout fees. You should see adjustments in your activity and ledgers for transparency.


🔄 Net vs Gross Revenue Toggle

You can now switch between Gross and Net revenue views directly on the dashboard.

Perfect for:

  • Founder-level performance tracking

  • Finance & reporting workflows

  • Understanding true take-rate at a glance


⏱ Time Period Filtering on Dashboard

You can now filter metrics by custom time periods, making it easier to:

Testing just got easier.

You can now simulate webhook events to:

This pairs nicely with our broader webhook improvements changes!

We’ve added a new Community Resources section to our documentation.

10-Line Auth Integration

Good news for devs who like their integrations buttery smooth. You can now plug your app into Creem with just 10 lines of code using our new better-auth plugin.

New

Improved


Big few weeks at Creem. We shipped foundational analytics, made lifecycle automation smarter, tightened reliability, and polished the product across the board. Below are the highlights, the stories behind them, and a peek at what’s next!

Highlights

  • Abandoned Cart Recovery: detect, message, and win back more revenue

  • Payments Report: end-to-end reporting for payouts, fees, taxes, and net amounts

  • Product Settings: a clearer, scalable home for product configuration

  • Merchant Branding in Receipts: add trust and clarity for your customers

  • Localization: groundwork for a more global experience

  • Add User Consent Checkbox to Checkout as a new Custom Field Type

  • Customer Data Export

  • Better ordering of products in product bundles

What’s new

Abandoned Cart Recovery

Automatically recover lost sales with abandoned cart email reminders. When a customer starts checkout but doesn’t finish, Creem detects the abandonment and sends a friendly reminder to help them complete the purchase, no manual work required.

Key benefits:

  • Recover lost sales and increase conversion

  • Set-and-forget automation that runs reliably in the background

  • Great customer experience that brings people back at the right time

How it works:

  1. Enable per product in your Creem Dashboard

  2. Create a checkout passing your customer email in the checkout session:

    https://docs.creem.io/learn/checkout-session/introduction#customer-email

  3. A customer begins checkout but leaves before paying

  4. Creem detects the abandoned checkout after a defined window

  5. A recovery email is sent automatically

  6. You earn revenue that would have been lost

Getting started:

  • Go to Products → select a product → Abandoned Cart Recovery → toggle On → Save

  • Start with defaults; you can refine timing and messaging later

Compliance and trust:

  • Ensure your Terms and Privacy Policy cover recovery emails

  • Ensure you collect consent from your customers through a checkbox on login or purchase flows

Pricing that aligns with outcomes:

  • 5% fee on recovered transactions, you pay when it works!

Feedback & Customer support

We streamlined how you share feedback and track what’s shipping, bringing requests closer to where decisions happen.

Payments Report

The new Payments Report brings together transactions, customers, and transaction insights in one place. It’s designed for founders and teams who want to export Creem data into other analytical software.

  • Frontend UI and backend integration shipped

  • Export-friendly structure for finance reviews

Product Settings Structure

We reorganized product settings to scale with you. It’s now easier to ship new capabilities without cluttering your workflow.

  • Clearer grouping, better defaults, future-proofed structure.

Merchant Website on Customer Receipts

Receipts your customers trust. Brand information now appears directly on customer receipts to reduce support friction and improve clarity.

Business Details Verification

Operational guardrails for high-trust workflows. Admins can now verify business details programmatically, improving review speed and auditability.

Localization

Creem is more accessible in more places. This initial pass lays groundwork for expanded language support across the product.

Quality & polish

  • Clearer receipts with merchant branding front and center

  • More reliable sessions and a cleaner navigation experience throughout

What’s next

We’re focused on nailing the Merchant of Record core and growing a best-in-class lifecycle engine around it for the rest of 2025—think recovery, retention, and revenue operations that just work out of the box.

If you want to follow the cadence and see what’s shipping next, keep an eye on our blog and roadmap. As always—your feedback shapes what we prioritize next.
