Waitlists now support free signups. Before this, every waitlist required a price. If you wanted to capture interest before launching, you were working around that limitation.

Now you can create a waitlist with no price attached. Visitors sign up, you build the list, and when you’re ready to open the doors, you launch the paid offer behind it. Set it up in Settings > Revenue > Waitlists and set the price to $0.

It works with Pages too. Build a landing page, drop a free waitlist on it, and you have a complete pre-launch funnel — all inside Heartbeat.

Heads up: Members on a free waitlist aren’t community members yet. They’re captured leads. Once you’re ready to convert them, you’ll launch your waitlist and convert it into an offer.

• Member settings load fast now. Settings → Members used to freeze for large communities loading 1,000+ members at once. Now loads incrementally, & remembers your page when you click in & out of a member profile.

• Promo codes work in the Change Plan modal. You can now apply a promo code directly when a member upgrades or downgrades their plan. No workarounds needed.

• Cancel subscription modal UI improved. Fixed confusing button labels. Now clearly "Cancel Plan" and "Go Back."

• "Buy Ticket" replaces "RSVP" on paid events. Paid events now show a "Buy Ticket" button instead of "RSVP." Small wording change, but it sets the right expectation before your members click.
