Changes to our API for payment and mandate retrieval
We are removing the name, email, phone, date_of_birth, and address fields inside user in the GET /payments/{id} and GET /mandates/{id} responses. This is done to protect users and reduce sensitive information exchanges. This data should be available to you internally.

Change to our API for payment creation
We are removing the preferred_scheme_ids field inside payment_method.provider_selection (user_selected variant) in the POST /payments request.

We have introduced additional information in the response returned upon a GET request to /payments-providers/{id}. Now on top of visual information on the provider, we will be returning information about capabilities you can access for the provider with v3, and money transfer schemes the provider supports.

🚀 We're making our bank availability for variable recurring payments public. You can follow the list to check which banks we're currently supporting and what dates they're available from, for VRP.

Change to our API for recurring payments
We have deployed a feature to let clients preselect a provider and (optionally) a specific remitter account when creating a new mandate. We are removing the mandate.provider_filter field from the POST /mandates endpoint and replacing it with mandate.provider_selection.

Recurring payments are now in Beta
We've moved recurring payments from Alpha to Beta, coinciding with our public announcement that we are live with variable recurring payments for both sweeping and non-sweeping use cases.

Australian Banks in Private Beta
We're pleased to say that Australia's three largest banks are now available through TrueLayer in Private Beta. Commonwealth Bank, National Australia Bank and Westpac collectively cover around 61.5% of all household deposits in Australia.

Zendesk messaging in Console
You might have noticed the widget that you can use to talk to our Client Care team looks slightly different. That's because we've been steadily migrating over to Zendesk and this will now help to facilitate all your questions! We've found that this tool handles ongoing conversations more gracefully, so that you can be confident that our team will have full context and you don't need to worry about closing a tab.

Addition to documentation
We've begun to add recurring payments to our documentation for Payments API v3. We've added documentation for the /mandates endpoint, with the Create Payment and Introspection documentation to come.

Updated Auth0 login
You may have noticed that our login screen now looks slightly different. That's because we've upgraded their newest version of their 'universal login' product. This doesn't fundamentally shift the way that you login to our Console right now, but we'll be starting to roll-out multi-factor authentication (MFA) in the coming couple of months. That means that you'll need to have to provide a second method of validation alongside your email / password combination. That will help to ensure that your account and integration with TrueLayer is more secure.
