Supporting a Secure and Modern Web Experience
The web evolves rapidly, and staying up-to-date is critical to ensuring security and functionality. At Limio, as a subscription commerce platform managing payment funnels, we prioritise a secure and seamless experience for our users. To achieve this, we require the use of modern browsers that adhere to current web standards and provide robust security.
The importance of browser security has grown with the adoption of standards like PCI DSS 4.0, which mandate stringent measures to protect payment information. Limioโs browser support policy reflects this evolving landscape and our commitment to maintaining a secure payment funnel for our customers.
Policy Principles
Limioโs browser support policy is guided by the following principles:
-
Baseline of 'Widely Available' Web Features
Limio leverages web features that are classified asBaseline Widely Available
according to web.dev standards. This means we support major browser versions released within the past 30 months. -
Global User Coverage
We aim to support browsers used by 98% of global users, ensuring a secure and inclusive experience. -
Quick Adoption of Modern Web Technologies
Our adherence to theBaseline Widely Available
principle enables developers to confidently utilise new web technologies, balancing innovation with accessibility.
Supported Browsers and Versions
The Baseline Widely Available
principle provides a general framework, but we refine our approach based on user trends and browser market share. While a browser version may technically fall within the last 30 months, it must have a meaningful user base to justify support.
Major Browsers
Limio supports the latest versions of the following browsers within the defined framework:
- Chrome (desktop and Android)
- Safari (macOS and iOS)
- Edge
- Firefox (desktop and Android)
Browser Market Share and Version Support (as of October 2024)
To achieve 98% global user coverage, we consider browser market share and usage patterns. The table below outlines the browser versions we currently support, based on cumulative usage thresholds:
Browser | Market Share | Cumulative Usage Threshold | Supported Versions |
---|---|---|---|
Chrome | 65% | 99% | > 92 |
Safari | 18.82% | 95% | > 16.4 |
Edge | 5.36% | 80% | > 92 |
Firefox | 3.3% | 70% | > 108 |
Chrome for Android | (included in Chrome) | 99% | > 129 |
Safari on iOS | (included in Safari) | 95% | > 16.4 |
These thresholds ensure that we support the vast majority of users while maintaining a secure and modern environment.
Ongoing Evaluation
Browser usage trends and feature adoption evolve over time. To ensure we remain current:
- We monitor browser market share and web technology adoption regularly.
- We use tools like Web Platform Status to evaluate feature compatibility and browser adoption rates.
By aligning with these principles, Limio ensures a secure, modern, and accessible experience for our customers and their end-users. If you have further questions about our browser support policy, please contact our support team.
