Starting April 2025, compliance with PCI DSS 4.0.1 will require e-commerce stores to implement a Content Security Policy (CSP) on payment-related pages. To align with these requirements, the Hyvä development team is expanding CSP support across its themes and checkout solutions. Below we review the essence of CSP requirements for Magento and Amasty’s approach to supporting Hyvä’s CSP implementation in its Magento 2 extensions.
Free extensions seem like an easy way to expand functionality without extra investment. Yet, not all free modules offer the same value or reliability. While some extensions provide minor enhancements with minimal risk, others modify core Magento functions and, for that reason, require careful consideration. Below, we’ll examine the pros and cons of free Magento extensions and help you determine when they are a smart choice – and when they’re a Pandora’s Box.

Let’s examine why Mage-OS compatibility cannot be assumed, explore potential issues from unaligned modules, and find out how exactly Amasty adapts its extensions to Mage-OS.

Starting January 2024, Stripe has mandated that all third-party plugins must utilize Stripe Apps for authentication, using either Oauth 2.0 or a restricted API key. This change is aimed at significantly enhancing security, and plugins that do not comply with this authentication method may have a fee imposed by Stripe in 2025. To assist all Magento-based businesses with these changes, we’re rolling out App for Payments with Stripe for Magento 2, now available on the Stripe App Marketplace.
The Magento Association has announced its upcoming Board Elections, offering a chance for two new members to join the Board of Directors.

Do your subscription payments let you actually enjoy the benefits you're paying for? As strange as this question might seem, Amasty has discovered several cases where third parties purchased Magento 2 extensions on behalf of customers and then canceled the subscriptions. In the best-case scenario, the customer saves money but loses access to crucial updates. In the worst-case scenario, the customer isn’t even notified about the subscription cancellation and continues to pay the third party for the benefits they never receive.
At Amasty, we believe that great partnerships are the key to innovation and growth. That's why we’re always expanding our network, working with forward-thinking companies that share our vision.
In this digest, we're excited to spotlight some of the incredible companies we’re proud to call our partners. We’re grateful for their trust and the opportunity to grow together!
