Recently, we created Version 2 funnels and websites within HighLevel with enhanced security features and more robust capabilities for you to manage your business. In order to take advantage of these features and heightened security, it’s critical to update any older, “Version 1” funnels to the “Version 2” for full use of the enhanced functionality. Learn more about why and how below.
What are v2 funnels and websites, and why do I need to move to v2?
The Version 2 (v2) funnels and websites offer a more enhanced, secure, and faster experience over the Version 1 (v1) funnels and websites.
Using the v2 funnels and websites, here are some of the benefits you will notice:
- Faster speed
- Compatibility with 3D secure payments
- PayPal payment processing capability
- Integrate with Stripe Connect instead of using API key integration
- Create one-step order form checkouts in funnels
- Use built-in card authorization security when selling a recurring product
- Transactions will appear in your “Payments” tab
- Digital products can be created in the payments section and then added to an order form in a funnel step.
Pages built in Version 1 are not labeled with anything. Pages built in Version 2 are labeled with “Version 2”, as indicated here:
