Cartthrob Announces EE 2 Upgrade Options

When the EE 2 version of Cartthrob is available, the team behind the e-commerce software will be offering no-cost upgrades for new licenses.

EE 2.1 still ships with 1.6x as an available option, so you can still buy and use CartThrob. When we complete the 2.1 compatible version, you will be able to download the new version at no extra cost.

If you’ve already purchased a Cartthrob license you’ll have the option to upgrade to the EE 2-compatible version for $49.99.

Anyone that purchased CartThrob before 7-10-2010 will be able to purchase the EE 2.1x compatible version of CartThrob for $49.99 when we release it. For now there are no upgrades available to purchase on the site. We will add an upgrade option when we release the 2.1 compatible version of CartThrob.

Cartthrob haven’t said when the new version will be released but noted that “it will launch before EE stops supporting 1.6x” and there won’t be any issues with forward compatibility with Cartthrob tags you’ve used under the EE 1.6 version.
