Overview of major new features and enhancements of Tentary.
- Preview for individual email purchase confirmations added
- Display of the percentage course progress (if activated for an online course) in the order details
- Filter for installment payments added to the order overview
- Visual improvements to the link-in-bio theme
In the product settings, you can now choose whether buyers see the standard thank-you page or a custom one after purchase. Alternatively, buyers can also be redirected to an external page after buying. The purchase confirmation email can also be fully customized.
Both areas support predefined variables to personalize the content for buyers.
Where is this new setting? Right on the page where you edit a product.
You can now choose from three shop themes. The new theme is inspired by the popular link-in-bio style and includes additional customization options to better personalize colors, buttons, and profile pictures.
- Mobile-optimized navigation for online courses
Some products and professions are subject to special regulations and are taxed separately. From now on, an individual tax rate can be set for specific products, overriding all other tax rates.
This option can be found in the “Settings” section when editing a product.
Products of the type “Digital Download” can now be offered in multiple variants. This allows customers to purchase, for example, a standard and a premium version of a product.
From now on, custom fields can be added to the checkout page to collect individual data from buyers.
- Sellers now receive an email notification when a subscription is canceled
- The editor for online courses has been technically revised, making it significantly faster to load and edit extensive courses
- For the product type “Direct Link,” a new setting can be enabled, allowing customers to see an email form before being redirected to the actual link. These email addresses can be used with the built-in email marketing (provided that double opt-in has been completed).
For products of the type “Direct Link”, the “Shop-in-Shop” option can now be activated. This embeds the purchase process directly within your shop, so users are no longer redirected to the affiliate provider. This feature is exclusively available for affiliate products offered through Tentary.
In this case, the customer always stays within your shop, using your domain and layout. As long as cookies are enabled, this also ensures that purchases are correctly attributed to you as the affiliate partner.

Supported resolutions:

Additionally, a link can be activated in the shop editor, which will be displayed in the shop, allowing customers to log in and view all their purchases in the respective shop.
- Alignment of the shop title, description, and logo can be adjusted (left, center, right)

In the course settings, you can now activate a progress bar. When this option is enabled, every buyer of your courses can save and visually track their own progress.
Customers can now pay with iDEAL (via Stripe). iDEAL is one of the most popular payment methods in the Netherlands.
To display iDEAL in your shop, it must first be activated here.
Optionally, you can change the prices in your shop from gross (including tax) to net prices. This is particularly useful if you primarily expect business customers.
You can make the change here.
- Discount codes now also work for subscription payments
In addition to the company name, a display name can now be entered in the invoice settings.

1. Products can be individually marked as electronic publications. Reduced tax rates can be applied to these products in many EU countries.*
2. Products can be designated as "Voucher/Ticket." This setting allows for tracking redeemed vouchers and can automatically print a voucher number on PDF-format vouchers after purchase.
*Previously, this setting was activated by selecting the (no longer available) product type "ebook/PDF."
To make product creation more straightforward, product types are now more clearly separated from each other.
There are currently 5 types:
- Appointment Booking
- Digital Download
- Link / Access
- Newsletter
- Online Course
Additionally, the product type must be set at the beginning.
Never manually schedule coaching sessions again! From now on, you can sell individual appointment bookings, including an automatically generated link to a Zoom meeting.
Learn more about how the creation and sale of coaching sessions work in our Help Center.
Buyers receive access to the purchased product directly after payment. At the same time - as before - a purchase confirmation is sent by e-mail.
This means that buyers always have immediate access to the purchase, even if the e-mail with the purchase confirmation has not yet arrived or there is a typing error in the e-mail address provided.
From now on, a notification will be sent via email to sellers if a order confirmation couldn't be delivered. The notification will lead to the order in the Tentary account, where further details about the error can be viewed, and the issue can be resolved.
The revenue and traffic analyses have been consolidated on the analysis-page for better comparability. Data on refunds and payment methods have been added, and different currencies are converted to the current account currency.
The withdrawal period for products can be set on an individual basis. While it may make sense for some digital products not to offer a right of withdrawal (which would then have to be legally confirmed by the buyer during the purchase process), there are also products that can be offered with an extended right of withdrawal, e.g. 30 days.
The withdrawal period is set in the product settings.
Introducing a new product type: Newsletter. When this product type is selected, a button for newsletter confirmation (opt-in) is displayed in the purchase confirmation, instead of a download link for files. Irrelevant settings are hidden.
Try it out and create a new product.
Marketing emails can now be sent either immediately or at a specific date and time in the future.
Go to email marketing settings.
You can now define your own text for the "Buy Now" button on your sales pages.
It is now possible to specify how many days customers have access to a product after a purchase.
Both new features can be found in the product settings: https://app.tentary.com/products/new
For shorter time periods, charts will now display data on a daily basis instead of a monthly basis.
The time period for visitor and sales analysis can now be adjusted. This makes it possible to look at trends over a longer period of time.
Revenues can now be exported as a CSV file in addition to a PDF file. Periods for export can also be defined individually.
Go to reports: https://app.tentary.com/settings/revenues
With this update, sharing products has been improved. We also added a feature that makes it possible to embed a purchase button and your product directly into an external website.
It is now possible to upload images directly from the text editor. This gives you more flexibility when creating sales pages or product descriptions.
From now on, all emails you send to your customers will use your contact address and company name as the sender and reply-to address.
This should make it even easier for customers to identify your messages and contact you if they have any questions.
Email marketing is one of the most important ways to stay in touch with customers easily and effectively. You can use email to market additional products to existing customers, share information about new releases, or start your own newsletter.
With Tentary, you get access to all the email marketing features for free. There is no need for additional tools or platforms.
You can send your customers one-time messages called broadcasts or, in the future, multiple automated emails called campaigns (available soon).
Learn more about Email marketing with Tentary.
With each order, a new customer profile is automatically created and is now clearly displayed on the customer page. Customers are distinguished by the email address used to make a purchase.
Additionally: Some optimizations to reduce loading times for the backend and sales pages.
In addition to files, videos, text, and folders, you can now include images on your product pages (the page customers see after a purchase).
Learn more about our product editor.
The product editor has been visually and functionally redesigned to better support courses and workshops with multiple chapters.
You can still upload files, but you can also add text snippets and sort them into chapters or folders.
More options for the product editor will follow in the future. Feel free to send your suggestions to ideas@tentary.com.
Learn more about our product editor.
From now on, videos are automatically transcoded during upload and made available to buyers as a stream. This ensures that your videos can be played directly and comfortably on all devices.
More about video streaming in our help-center.
To avoid typos, email addresses are checked for common errors during the purchase process. In addition, after a purchase, buyers are notified why emails may not be received and have the option to request a purchase confirmation again.
You can now export all customer and order data as a CSV-file.
The Tentary platform is now available in English.
Apart from the language support, we also support individual tax and legal settings (e.g. include specific Terms of Service).
From now on, you can choose between different currencies for selling your products in the settings. Reports, dashboards, and invoices will also be displayed in the specified currency.
From now on, every creator worldwide can use Tentary as a sales platform for their digital products and services!
In the Tentary account, instead of selecting only one of the EU countries, you can select any available country and then define individual tax settings to reflect your tax situation. This allows us to automatically display the correct taxes on your product sales in the checkout and include them in invoices to your customers.
