โ† Changelog

February 2026

February was about strengthening the foundation and polishing the experience.

No flashy gimmicks. Just meaningful upgrades that make HeyTaco more secure, more stable, and easier to use every day.

SOC 2 Type II โ€” Successfully Completed

We officially passed our SOC 2 Type II audit again.

That means our security controls were independently validated across:

  • Access management
  • Infrastructure security
  • Monitoring & logging
  • Change management
  • Operational processes

For our customers โ€” especially growing and enterprise teams โ€” this reinforces that HeyTaco is built with security as core infrastructure, not an afterthought.

Weekend Milestone Clarity

When a milestone falls on a weekend, it now clearly indicates it will be celebrated on the next weekday.

Applied in:

  • Admin โ†’ Milestones
  • Individual Settings

Why this matters:
No more confusion about โ€œwhy didnโ€™t this post?โ€
Recognition feels predictable and intentional.

Stickers No Longer Expire

After countless feedback from our community, we removed sticker expiration. If you unlock it โ€” itโ€™s yours to use. ๐ŸŽ‰

Manual Redemption Option (For Admins)

Admins can now create manual redemptions.

This allows:

  • Reducing a userโ€™s redeemable taco balance
  • Creating a record of redemptions fulfilled outside HeyTaco
  • Better accounting consistency
  • Admins to facilitate team members wanting to donate tacos to each other.

It gives admins more control without increasing complexity.

We have big things in the works for March and can't wait to share them with you ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
