We're thrilled to introduce two big feature additions to the mobile app in this update, enhancing your ability to manage your business on the go.
You can now create projects and clients directly from your mobile device.
Tasks are now available on your mobile device, allowing you to manage your work wherever you are.
Note: Task boards are not available on mobile.
These updates bring more flexibility to your workflow, allowing you to capture new opportunities and manage your business efficiently from your mobile device.
We're continuously working to improve your Dubsado experience. Thank you for your feedback and support!
We're excited to announce the launch of our highly anticipated "Apply manual payments" feature for the Dubsado mobile app!
Since the launch of our mobile app in July, applying manual payments has been one of our most requested features. We're thrilled to deliver this functionality to enhance your mobile experience and help you manage your business more effectively.
With this new feature, you can now easily keep track of all your payments, whether received online or in person, ensuring a more seamless financial management experience for your business.
We hope you enjoy this new addition to the Dubsado mobile app!

You can now access, create, and edit notes and call logs on your phone from a project or client level.
For project notes and call logs:
For client notes and call logs:
Notes in Dubsado work smart to keep you organized. Like in the web version of Dubsado, when you add a note to a client's profile, it's like giving them a digital sticky note that follows them everywhere. This note will appear in every project you create for that client, ensuring you always have their key information at hand. On the flip side, project-specific notes stay put. If you jot down a note within a project, it remains there, keeping project details separate from general client information. This way, you maintain a clear distinction between overarching client notes and project-specific details. For instance, I added a note about Samantha Winters' preference for email communication in her client profile, however, you'll see this note in all her projects.
But if I add a note in her project, it will only appear in that particular project. As you can see here, I added a note in her project about things only pertaining to this project. These will only show in this project and not the client profile.
You can remove notes or call logs by clicking the three dots on that note “card” and then click delete.
You can edit a note or call log that you have already created by simply clicking on that “card”. Clicking the back button saves your progress.
Hope you enjoy this update! Any questions, send our team a chat or email, hello@dubsado.com
We're thrilled to introduce Link, a powerful Stripe technology now integrated with Dubsado Payments at no extra cost. Link offers your clients the option to securely save their payment information for ultra-fast checkouts across businesses - they simply check a box to opt in. With Link, clients can complete payments in just 6 seconds, which is 9x faster than traditional methods. This speed, combined with a streamlined process, has shown to increase conversion rates by over 7% for businesses using Link.
Link's widespread adoption means many of your clients may already have accounts, potentially making your checkout process even smoother. For those who use it, Link autofills payment and shipping details, creating a frictionless experience that can significantly reduce drop-offs. Security is paramount - Link is certified as a PCI Service Provider Level 1, the highest level in the payments industry, ensuring all data is encrypted and protected.
Whether your clients choose Link's convenience or prefer traditional methods, you're now offering a flexible, future-ready payment experience that can boost your business's efficiency and client satisfaction.
This is what it looks like for your clients when setting up Link for the first time.
This is what it looks like to your clients when Dubsado Payments has detected your client’s email already has a Link account.
Link is now active on all Dubsado Payments accounts. Link is an option for your clients to use, not a requirement.
For more detailed information on how Link works and its benefits, you can check out our help documentation here.
We're excited to announce a new security feature to enhance the protection of your Dubsado account.
We're introducing a device verification process for users logging in with a username and password. When you log in from a new browser, you'll be asked to verify your device by clicking a link sent to your email. This helps protect your account by alerting you to potential unauthorized access attempts.
Note: This feature does not apply to those who sign in with Google, but don’t worry, you’re not missing out… Google uses their own similar verification process when you log in from a new device. Google does have two-factor authentication as well, so if you want even more protection on your Dubsado account, you can enable that on Google’s end. You can find more info about getting that set up by clicking here.
We want to remind you that if you're currently sharing your Dubsado password with others, it's time to stop this practice and instead add them as multi-users. Adding team members as multi-users with admin-level access provides similar permissions to what you have as the brand owner, but it's much safer and more secure. Each person will have their own username and password, enhancing account security and allowing for better accountability.
How does this new device verification differ from the email verification during trial sign-up?
The trial email verification confirms that you've provided a valid email address. In contrast, device verification ensures that your Dubsado account is only accessed from approved devices, enhancing your account's security.
Does device verification apply to multi-users?
Yes, multi-users will need to verify their devices using the email associated with their Dubsado account.
What if I've been sharing my login information with others?
You should never be sharing your login details with anyone, even people on your team. With this new feature, anyone trying to access your account from an unverified device won't be able to log in without access to your email for verification. We recommend using the multi-user feature instead to grant access to team members. Note: The Dubsado Team and Certified Dubsado Specialists will never ask you for your user name and password. If someone does this, please let our team know right away.
Will I need to verify my device every time I log in?
No, you'll only need to verify when accessing Dubsado from a new browser or different device. However, for added security, you'll be asked to re-verify your device once a year, even on previously approved devices.
The Dubsado mobile app has a new addition… Say hello to clients (aka your "address book" in Dubsado)!

Hi there,
We recently made an update to the copy that appears on client payment receipts. Previously, the receipt stated: "For any questions about this payment, refunds, and more, please reach out to [Company Name]." We have simplified that language and removed the part around refunds.
We included this copy originally to encourage clients to reach out directly to the business they hired with any payment-related questions or concerns. However, we received feedback from some of our users that mentioning refunds specifically could be misleading for businesses that have a "no refund" policy or no policy for refunds in general.
We hear that concern have updated the receipt copy to remove the reference to refunds. The updated copy now reads: "For any questions about this payment, please reach out to [Company Name]."
We believe this change will reduce potential confusion while still encouraging your clients to contact the business directly with payment inquiries.
This situation highlights the importance of clearly communicating your refund policy to clients. Even if your policy is not to offer refunds, we recommend explicitly stating this in your contract terms and/or invoice terms. Transparency around refunds helps align expectations and avoid misunderstandings (This can help you with any potential credit card disputes as well).
If you don't yet have a refund policy, now is a great time to create one. Consider what makes sense for your business and client relationships. Once you've settled on a policy, make sure to communicate it clearly and visibly to clients.
Hi there,
We are excited to announce two new features on the Dubsado mobile app: Emails and Push Notifications. These updates are designed to make your experience with Dubsado even more convenient and efficient while you're on the go.
You can now send and receive emails directly through the project view in the Dubsado mobile app.
To access your emails, simply click on the "Projects" button at the bottom of the app, select the desired project.
Note: The "Inbox" tab is not ready for beta just yet. This beta release focused on email communications within the project.
Once in the project click on the new "Emails" tab.
There you'll be able to view your email history with your client for that specific project.
You can easily see if an email has been viewed by your client by that checkmark indicator on the right side of your email message.
To reply to an email, click on the email and then click "the white space below the client's name to reply (psst. in the mobile app, we are introducing "drafts". You can start composing a message and exit away and when you come back to the app, you can pick up right where you left off. This will also be coming to the web version of Dubsado in the future).
You can also compose a new email by clicking the "Compose" button at the top right.
Never miss a beat with real-time alerts for contracts, forms and appointment scheduling. Say goodbye to the constant need to check your emails or log into Dubsado. With push notifications, you'll be the first to know about any important updates, giving you the power to react quickly and keep your business running smoothly. 💪 We got the rest of the push notifications coming with future beta releases (like invoice paid notifications).
Let's dive in and take a look at this update:
Notifications can be found under the "Notifications" tab in the mobile app. The notification icon will show a red dot when you have an unread notification, like below.
Once you click notifications, unread notifications will be displayed, and you can always access your older notifications for reference.
To customize your notification settings, click the gear icon at the top right of the "Notifications" tab.
Once in the settings area you can choose which events you want to receive push notifications in app for, such as contract signing, scheduling, etc.
Please note that push notifications when you receive new emails are not available through the app. To receive email alerts, make sure to enable notifications through your email app.
Once you have turned on notifications for your desired events, you will receive push notifications on your phone and connected watch (if applicable).
We also added an easy way to send forms and schedulers manually right from the forms tab within a project. By clicking the three dots next to the form or scheduler, you’ll be presented with the new option of sending an email.
We hope you enjoy these new features and find them beneficial for managing your business on the go.
If you have any questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to our chat support.
