Reminders of Upcoming Events

  1. By end of Q2 2024, all AngelTrack servers will reject any connections originating from outside North America and ANZAC. If you have a biller in India, or if you intend to travel to foreign countries and want to access your AngelTrack server while you are there, then you must use a VPN client that can re-originate your traffic within the aforementioned countries. This is cheap and easy, but please arrange it beforehand, before AngelTrack's geo-restrictions go into effect. To learn more, visit the IP Blocklist / Geographic Restrictions Guide.
  2. Back in February 2024, AngelTrack moved to buffet-style licensing, in which the advanced (power-user) features are now separately licensed, so that bare-bones users no longer pay for advanced features they don't use. At that time, all AngelTrack servers were awarded 12-month grandfather licenses, enabling all advanced features through February 2025. In February 2025 these grandfather licenses will expire, at which time your monthly licensing cost will increase, or else you can disable the features you don't need. You will also get a certain number of free credits every month (the amount depends on your license size) with which to enable some advanced features of your choosing, at no cost. To learn more about the feature buffet system please refer to the Feature Buffet Guide.
