This is a manual update procedure you can use if you have disabled the upgrade option on your store. Do the following:

The table below has examples of the changes:
Messaging is automatically updated if you use On-Site Messaging, our current messaging product, or its predecessor that used the JavaScript library for messaging. In both cases wait for the automatic update process to occur. Monitor your email for advance notice of this automatic update.
See the table below for an example of the changes:
The automatic Messaging update includes changes to learn more/lightbox asset if you use that.
If you use elements of Afterpay Messaging but not the standard Onsite Messaging Widget, then update the Afterpay elements with the latest Afterpay elements. See the Brand Assets section above.
Any custom messaging updates must be reviewed by your Account Manager.
