New features, improvements, fixes and guides, newest first. Every entry has its own page and date.
Each merchant now has its own settings page in your store admin. Go to Settings > Affiliate Settings and pick Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Walmart or AliExpress to set that merchant's tracking details and link options in one place, without scrolling past the others. Amazon also has its own Advanced Settings section.
Your store now cleans up after itself. Expired offers and ended eBay auctions delete themselves, products left with no offers are hidden from visitors, and images from expired offers are kept so product pages still look complete.
You can now give your store a full shopping cart. Visitors add several products to one cart as they browse, then check out together, including through Amazon checkout. It is optional, so you can turn it on for stores where shoppers tend to buy more than one item.
You can now keep categories stocked automatically. Set up a Category Populator with a search and your price rules, and it looks across merchants for matching products and adds new ones to the category on a schedule. Your categories keep growing with fresh products without you adding each one by hand.
You can now use Amazon Add to Cart links on your store. Instead of opening the product page, the buy button adds the product to the shopper's Amazon cart. Items in a cart keep your affiliate cookie for longer than a normal link, so you can earn from purchases made days later. It is an optional link type you turn on.
AliExpress support has been rebuilt. Your AliExpress affiliate links are more reliable, and product details such as titles, prices and images come through more accurately.
Your store now warns you more clearly when your Amazon affiliate tag is missing or wrong, so you can fix it before you lose commission on clicks.
Offer prices now update instantly when they need to, rather than waiting for the next routine check, and offer imports keep retrying for longer, so fewer products end up without an offer.
The Amazon Link Importer now accepts both short and long Amazon link formats. Paste links as you copy them, including short share links, and the importer turns each one into a product.
You can now add your own offers to any product. A Custom Offer has your own price, details and link, so you can promote a merchant we do not import from, another affiliate program, or your own products, right beside the regular offers. It was one of the most requested features on the roadmap.
You can now see what is holding your store back on one page. Store Health lists warnings about anything that needs your attention, such as a missing Amazon tracking ID, so you can fix problems before they cost you clicks or commission. Check it after you set up a new store.
You can now add products by pasting Amazon links. The new Link Importer takes a list of Amazon product links and creates a product for each one, so you can stock a category with products you have already picked without searching for them one by one.
Product pages now show one offer per merchant. Instead of a long list with several offers from the same shop, visitors see each merchant once, which makes it easier to compare prices and pick where to buy.
Offers, prices and related eBay auctions on your product pages now update live. Visitors see current prices and auctions that are still running, so the buttons they click lead to what they expect.
You can now pick from more Amazon countries in your store's offer settings. Choose the Amazon stores your visitors shop at and add your tracking ID for each one, so links to those Amazon stores carry your ID and earn you commission. Countries you leave unticked are not used.
Offers are now checked on a smarter schedule, so the prices and availability in your stores go stale less often. Visitors are more likely to see the same price when they click through to the merchant, which builds trust and helps sales.
You can now choose how product reviews and related eBay auctions appear on your product pages. You can also pick which merchant search buttons show when a product has no offers, so visitors still have a useful way to find the item.
Offer search now recognises offer IDs from every merchant, not only Amazon ASINs. Paste the ID of a product you already know and FreshStore finds the offer directly. Walmart searches are also more precise, so you see the product you meant.
You can now update the related eBay auctions for a product straight from its edit page. Auctions end quickly, so a refresh brings in current listings whenever you want them, without waiting for the next automatic update. Use it after you edit a product to see fresh results at once.
You can now search for offers by Amazon ASIN. Paste the ASIN of a product you already know into offer search, and FreshStore finds it directly instead of making you search by keywords and scroll through results. It is the quickest way to add a specific product to your store.
You can now switch off any merchant you do not want in a store. Offer Settings has a switch for each merchant, so you can drop one that does not suit your niche, or one you have no affiliate account with. Offers from merchants you switch off no longer show in that store.
Every affiliate link in your stores now carries the nofollow attribute, as search engines expect for affiliate links. This happens automatically on every store, so you do not need to change anything. It keeps your stores in line with search engine guidelines and helps protect your rankings.
Your store now adapts to each visitor's country. When someone visits, FreshStore shows them offers from their own country's storefront automatically, so they land on a marketplace where they can buy and you can earn. You do not need a separate store for each country. One store serves visitors wherever they are, and sales are not lost to the wrong marketplace.
