◆Current state
Cody, a white-label ecommerce platform for New Zealand and Australian retailers, shipped a large batch on 11 November: a redesigned and more secure login, login-attempt limits, a new Sales Report on a faster Insights data system, quicker Page Builder pages on phones and style targeting in every module. A day earlier it added automatic Google Ads Customer Match syncing and faster order search in Dispatch. These follow Smart Criteria in Page Builder and rebuilt checkout APIs earlier in November.
◆Where it's heading
Cody is preparing merchants for Black Friday on two fronts: speed and reliability for shoppers, and tools that let small teams run promotions and ads without help. Much of the work replaces older systems underneath, from checkout APIs to Insights data and the Products module, while keeping screens the same.
◆Prediction
More Insights reports are likely as sites move to the new data system in stages, as the Sales Report note says.

    ⚡ Faster pages for your shoppers

    The first banner loads straight away and phones skip the hidden desktop banner, so key content appears sooner. Peak-season speed work aimed at mobile shoppers.

    Cody limits customer login attempts and hardens reset links

    Customer logins get attempt limits, reset and activation links that can't be guessed, and customer details are kept out of logs. It pairs with the new admin login as a security pass before peak traffic.
