We've been heads-down for the last several weeks tightening up the parts of 207 Courier you use every day. This release is less about flashy new buttons and more about the quiet stuff that should "just work" — rewards that actually show up, redemptions that actually apply, and account settings that stop arguing with each other. Here's the rundown.
Loyalty rewards now credit automatically
If you've ever wondered why your free-drink or free-delivery progress wasn't moving, you weren't imagining it. Our loyalty engine had the math right but wasn't being called when a delivery was marked delivered. That's fixed.
- Every completed delivery now credits loyalty progress for the right account — individual customers on personal orders, and the business account on team-member orders.
- When you cross a milestone, you'll see it surfaced as a notification on the admin update path, and the reward shows up in your rewards drawer right away.
- It's safe to re-mark a delivery as delivered (for example after a revert) — credit is only ever applied once per delivery.
Free-delivery redemptions actually zero the fee now
The other half of that story: when you redeemed a free-delivery reward, the system was setting a flag but nothing was reading it on your next order. Now, the very next order you place after redeeming will have its delivery fee zeroed out, including on the customer Quick Order flow. Any shopping fee on a personal-shopper order is preserved — we only waive the courier piece. The redemption is consumed once, so there's no risk of it "sticking" to future orders.
Delivery-window settings stay consistent
If you used a custom date and time on your dashboard and then opened your profile to change something else, your saved date used to disappear the moment you saved the form. The profile and the dashboard widget now agree: the dashboard is the canonical place to set custom date and time, and the profile no longer overwrites it. Switching back to a morning or afternoon window correctly clears both fields.
Client accounts: a quiet security tune-up
For our business clients — Ruska Coffee Co, Larkspur & Rose, and everyone running a team account — we did a round of behind-the-scenes hardening:
- Invite-only staff signup. Legacy registration links that exposed admin/driver/client role pickers no longer create staff accounts. Staff are added from the admin user-management page; everyone else uses customer signup or a B2B invite link.
- Quick Order is locked to your organization. Submitting a Quick Order will only ever post to a business you're actually linked to, even if the request is tampered with.
- Default-address race fixed. Saving a new default address while another save was in flight could occasionally leave you with two defaults. The save now demotes the previous default in the same transaction.
- Friendlier invite-acceptance page. If the inviting account is missing some details, the join page now degrades gracefully instead of erroring out.
- Average-wait stat tightened. Same-minute pickups are now counted in client dashboard wait-time averages.
Payroll Automator integration — MVP shipped
We've shipped the first cut of our Payroll Automator integration for external partner orders. Orders that flow in from Payroll Automator now move through a clearly defined status flow inside DeliveryHub Pro, re-queue cleanly when a driver can't take the trip, and post outbound status callbacks back to Payroll Automator when the state changes. This is the foundation we'll build the rest of the partner-order experience on.
A note on the construction banner
You may have noticed a small banner at the top of every page letting you know we're actively improving things. That's intentional — we want to be upfront that 207 Courier is moving fast, and if you spot something that's not quite right, please tell us. Real humans read every report.
What's next
A few things already in the pipeline:
- Letting businesses opt in to public Quick Order so any customer can order from their menu.
- Surfacing the new "free delivery applied" flag on customer receipts and invoices so the discount is visible in your records.
- More ways for dispatchers and drivers to talk back and forth without leaving the app.
Thanks, as always, for trusting us with your deliveries. If you have ideas, gripes, or wins to share, the inbox is open.
