New Features:

• Implemented centralised credential management via the Service Credential Hub for the Credential Configuration service

Implemented a new Service Credential Hub to support secure, brand-scoped service credential storage and sharing across multiple brands. This enables scalable on-behalf-of onboarding (e.g., Forter Element) with audit logging, versioning, and secure storage via encrypted configurations.

• Implemented Split Pages Method for Zip Checkout

Introduced Split Pages method for integrating Zip, replacing the previous iframe-based approach. This update includes full API support, ensuring seamless compatibility with Single Page Applications (SPAs) and the Paydock Payment Checkout. The new method offers improved performance, flexibility, and a more streamlined integration experience.
In the Split Pages flow:

• Checkout opens in a new browser tab.
• The checkout result is broadcasted back to the parent tab upon completion.
• A loading animation is displayed in the parent tab while checkout is in progress.
• If the new tab is closed manually by the user, the loading animation stops, and the checkout is cleanly canceled.

Implemented the Forter Order Update API to ensure that the statuses of 3DS and all financial Charge operations are sent to Forter ensuring Forter is updated and can leverage the provided information to further train its Fraud engine.
