The GBS daily deal software platform is growing by leaps and bounds thanks to our awesome community of users and our rapid release cycle. The development roadmap for GBS is chocked full of tasty new features for entrepreneurs that are in need of an affordable and flexible ecommerce storefront with social buying capabilities. Today we are releasing v3.3 which includes several core product improvements for our daily deal themes and group buying plugin.

Account Management – A primary focus for the v3.3 release was the management of accounts. To address this, we’ve implemented better tracking for both user account purchases and credit history. Just below the option to manually add deals to an account you can now quickly view the user’s full purchase history as well as check other important customer information.

Managing and tracking your users’ account credit is essential for running a successful social commerce website. We’ve not only implemented the ability to add or remove credit to a user’s account but now you can easily add notes to help you track those changes. This allows you to know exactly when the credit balance was changed for a particular account and why that change was implemented.

Notification Updates - While releasing new GBS features is an important focus, our commitment to product excellence ensures that we continue to make improvements for existing social buying features as well. Today’s release expands the shortcode repertoire available for notifications and allows the administrator to input those shortcodes across other types of notifications too.

Daily Deal Theme Updates – Per our commitment to excellence, the recently debuted responsive daily deal theme and premium theme are both receiving improvement updates. The new premium theme version includes four new flavors, one for each season of the year. We’ve also added the ability to easily change fonts and incorporated the Google Web Fonts API which delivers over 280 high quality font options.
