7 updates shipped in Pace.
✨ Improved
Improved campaign groups for big accounts
Building groups on a large account takes less clicking. Pick any campaign on the account when you create or edit a group. Campaigns Pace isn't managing yet are tagged Not managed yet, and saving the group adds them to pacing in the same step, so you no longer have to add them in Account Settings first.
The Groups card on the Overview tab now has a New group button, and a settings gear on each row opens that group's settings.
Campaign lists are taller, so you scroll less. The Account Settings list keeps its place when you tick a campaign, and long campaign names wrap onto two lines in the group dialogs. Hover + Target in Account Settings to see what a per-campaign target does and how it differs from a group.
✨ Improved
Improved alerts for LinkedIn group budgets
LinkedIn won't take a daily budget on a campaign group that has budget optimization on and a total budget set. When Pace hits one, you get a single alert with the group's name and what to change. Remove the total budget or turn off budget optimization in Campaign Manager, and Pace picks the group up on its next run.
🚀 New
Connect Slack during setup
The Set up step now has a Get Pace in Slack card. Select Connect Slack, approve Pace in the new tab, then pick a channel without leaving setup. Not using Slack? Select Skip and the card goes away.
You'll see the same card on the first run screen if the run is taking a while, so you can hear about the result in Slack instead of waiting on the page.
Every Slack alert works during your trial. On Basic, the Slack alerts you switch on keep coming after your trial ends. Changing your Slack setup, and Findings, record and connection alerts, need Pro or above.
✨ Improved
Improved card updates after a failed payment
When a payment fails, the update link in the email, the banner and the Billing tab takes the workspace owner straight to Stripe's card form. Once the new card is in, you land back on your Billing tab.
The banner now shows on every plan while a payment is outstanding. We also send a few short reminders while Stripe retries the payment, and they stop as soon as it goes through.
✨ Improved
Improved first run updates
Some first runs take a minute or two. On large accounts they can take a lot longer. The first run screen now gives Pace up to 3 minutes before it tells you it's still working, and you're free to leave at that point. If you've gone by the time the run finishes, we email you a link to your change history.
If a run doesn't start, the screen tells you no budgets changed and gives you a Try again button. If a run starts but doesn't finish, it points you to the account's Changes tab so you can see what went through, and to [email protected] if you'd like a hand.
🚀 New
Send the card step to whoever holds the card
If someone else holds the company card, you can hand the card step to them. On the plan step, select Someone else holds the card and enter their email address. Pace sends them a link to add the card for the plan you picked.
They see the plan, the amount and the first charge date before they agree to anything, and they enter the card on Stripe's secure checkout. They don't need a Pace login. Once it's done, select Check again and carry on setting up.
The card holder also gets a short email before the first charge and when it goes through, so the charge never lands as a surprise.
✨ Improved
Improved renewal controls during your trial
When you turn renewal off during your 14-day trial, the banner at the top of Pace tells you where you stand: Pace keeps working until your trial ends, and your card won't be charged.
Change your mind and the workspace owner can select Turn renewal back on right there in the banner. You'll see the exact amount and the date you'll be charged before you click. It still works from the Billing tab in Settings too.
