Chasing payment on an order has always meant leaving SKU.io — copying an amount into a separate payment tool, emailing a link by hand, then circling back to mark the order paid once the money landed. It's slow, easy to forget, and the two systems never quite agree.

Stripe Payments closes that loop. Connect your Stripe account once, and you can send a customer a secure, hosted invoice directly from any sales order. Your customer pays with a card through Stripe's checkout, and SKU.io records the payment against the order automatically — no manual reconciliation, no copy-paste, no guesswork.

Fixing one field on a record used to mean a full detour: open the purchase order, change the supplier or the date, save, then click back to the list. Do that across a dozen rows and it's a dozen round-trips. Now your data tables have a new grid view — flip a switch and the list becomes a spreadsheet-style grid where you edit values directly in the cells. Your changes save as you go, and you never leave the list.

When a customer has a store credit on file and a sales order they haven't paid yet, the obvious thing to do is use one to settle the other. Until now that took several manual steps — recording a fake payment, remembering to mark the credit as used, and reconciling both sides by hand. Applying Store Credit to Sales Orders turns that into a two-click flow: open the order's Payments tab, pick the credits to apply, and SKU records the allocation, updates the order's balance, and keeps the credit's remaining balance in sync — all in one go.

Faire joins SKU as a first-class sales channel — connect your account and orders, products, and inventory stay in sync.

You can now turn PDF documents into SKU.io records automatically — no more manual line-by-line entry.

Finding a specific product or order used to mean clicking into the right list, waiting for it to load, then filtering or scrolling until it turned up — and reaching for the mouse for every hop between pages. Now SKU has a redesigned global search and a full set of keyboard shortcuts. Press ⌘K from anywhere to open a command palette that searches across your products, orders, and contacts at once — or jump straight to any page, and select and open rows in your data tables, all without leaving the keyboard.

The COGS rebuild now runs in parallel batches with live progress, a new Purchase Invoices page joins Orders, and a wave of background-job reliability fixes land.
