# New Languages for Checkouts, Proration for Plan Swaps, Refund Controls, &#038; More

## Language Options for Your Customers

![](https://university.spiffy.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/local-1.jpg)Give customers a more seamless experience by letting them interact with your business in their preferred language. Set your account default language in _Company Settings_ for your checkouts, customer portal, affiliate pages, and transactional emails, with support for **English, Spanish, French, and Italian**.
[Learn about Default Language settings](https://university.spiffy.co/account-settings/default-language.md)

You can also force a specific supported language on a checkout with URL parameters. Customers whose browser prefers a different supported language will be given the option to switch while viewing your pages. After they make a purchase, their customer portal and emails continue in the same language, creating a more consistent experience from checkout through post-purchase.

## Customer Notification Emails: Upcoming Payment & Refunds

These can be turned on or off and edited in Customer Notification Settings.

## Checkout Limit: 1 Purchase Per Customer

Tracking is based on the email address used. This setting is retroactive, so when activated it will apply to all past customers who have used that checkout to make a purchase.
