Over the last 3 weeks we received a lot of inquiries about "when will be v5.1 released?"
The release was scheduled for May 21st, unfortunately after final tests right before the release date we found couple of minor issues, which are being addressed as you read this post. We hope that everything will be finished in the next couple of days and released end of this week/this weekend. We know that many of our valued customers are waiting for the v5.1 release, and we hope you will be pleased to know that along with v5.1 update, we will release Credit Card Payments for BookingWizz v5.1+ (plug-n-play ) which will consist of all our current payment terminals (elavon, authorize.net, internetsecure, paypal pro, moneris canada, moneris usa, optimalpayments). We\’re also glad to announce that BookingWizz for Wordpress addon is half way done, and will be released in about a week/week and a half after v5.1 release. As mentioned before – it will be wordpress plugin which will require original bookingwizz v5.1 to be installed on the site in order to use plugin.
