PayPal Security Updates = move to new hosting

PayPal have made security updates which will be enforced from 30 June 2017. These changes require higher security than is offered by Kiwihosting. Due to this, all clubs using PayPal will need to be upgraded to the new hosting prior to 30 June.

All new sites created in the last 6 months have already been set up on the new hosting, and several clubs have already been migrated. I will be having conversations with the remaining clubs over the next few weeks to discuss costs and schedule in the move at a time which suits.

The new hosting is provided by WebRes, and will give a better and more reliable email system, better up time, should be faster, and they also provide a better level of support to me, meaning I get more control over what changes I can make, and also they respond faster to questions / issues.

If you have any questions, or want to discuss moving your site ASAP please get in contact.
