New Features:
PDF invoices as attachments

Feature Enhancements:
Hosted Pages
You now have more control over the field elements and text content on the hosted pages. Specify which fields you need to show on the hosted pages (custom fields not
supported yet) and also edit the text content (useful for localization).
Here's more on that: https://www.chargebee.com/docs/hp_configuration.html
Note: This feature is currently only available for new users who've signed up after March 1st. For users who've signed up before that and need to switch over to the new hosted pages, contact us at support@chargebee.com to get this enabled.
