What are v2 funnels and websites, and why do I need to move to v2?
The Version 2 (v2) funnels and websites offer a more enhanced, secure, and faster experience over the Version 1 (v1) funnels and websites.

- Compatibility with 3D secure payments
- PayPal payment processing capability
- Integrate with Stripe Connect instead of using API key integration
- Create one-step order form checkouts in funnels
- Use built-in card authorization security when selling a recurring product
- Transactions will appear in your “Payments” tab
- Digital products can be created in the payments section and then added to an order form in a funnel step.
