October 6, 2026 - Recurly Engage

October 6, 2026 Release: This release adds more control over subscription-level coupon targeting and redirect timing in Engage Actions, a device type filter in the all-prompts metrics view, and a fix for experiment winners not updating the baseline prompt — alongside an updated Payment Failure segment default for newly onboarded merchants.

Release DateFeatureTypePotential ImpactDescription / Overview
Oct 6Engage Actions — Coupon Plan PickerEnhancementMedYou can now target subscription-level coupon actions to a specific plan using a new plan picker dropdown. Previously, this action always defaulted to the subscriber's first active subscription. For merchants with multiple subscriptions per account, this enables more precise coupon targeting. Leaving the picker blank preserves the existing default.
Oct 6Engage Actions — Redirect DelayEnhancementsMedThe redirect website action now supports a configurable delay. Set a "Seconds to delay" value so subscribers have time to read the prompt before being redirected.
Oct 6Engage ExperimentsBugMedFixed a bug where clicking "Use This" on an experiment winner did not update the baseline prompt in the console. This caused follow-up experiments to use the old content as their "Original" variation, and could cause "Pause" to overwrite the winner. The baseline now updates immediately after selecting a winner.
Oct 6Engage Metrics — Device Type FilterEnhancementsMedThe all-prompts metrics view now includes a device type filter. You can break out prompt performance by device category (Desktop, Mobile, SmartTV, Tablet, Embedded), giving you visibility into how each prompt performs across device types. Previously, only aggregate metrics were available in this view.
Oct 6Engage Segments — Payment Failure (new merchants)EnhacementsMedThe default Payment Failure segment provisioned for newly onboarded merchants has been updated to match both failed and past_due invoice statuses, and now filters to active users only so churned accounts are excluded. If you are an existing merchant using the out-of-the-box Payment Failure segment without customization, consider reviewing and applying the same criteria to your existing segment.
