What’s New?

Update to Release Note Structure
Many of our merchants have shared feedback with Paydock about how we can improve our release notes. With our latest release, we are taking the first step towards more timely, meaningful, and clear release communications. Starting with the current release, we will be separating these notes into two categories:
  • Change Logs – changes to our code base to allow our merchants to update their interaction with our APIs.
  • Release Notes – new features and integrations with more detailed explanations
This is the first of many gradual improvements towards our end goal of proactive, transparent communication of our development work. For now, you can read both types of releases below, in the same place, but we have many plans to continually improve how we share news about functions and features that are impactful with each release.

Thanks for your patience and please continue to share your thoughts and feedback. We are listening.


Follow our Status Page for more information on product performance. Make sure your Client SDK version is up to date.

Release v1.90.1

Production Release Date: 24/05/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 10/05/2023

  • We have configured a new notification email for the password reset. From now on, once your password has been updated, an email notification will be sent to your email address informing you about the successful password change.

  • We have extended the filter for Charges on our Dashboard and API with new fields – Wallet ID and Channel ID.

  • Along with the above, we have introduced new fields for the Reporting Feature. It is now possible to configure wallet ID, channel ID, Card Acceptor, and external Fraud and 3DS results fields for the Transactions and Charges view mode and for your reports. This adds more flexibility for reporting and reconciliation purposes:

  • We are introducing a new optional field when creating a new Company from your Brand account – Merchant Reference. This field can be filled out in alphanumeric format with 64 characters long. The field is optional by default, therefore it is still possible to create a Company without Merchant reference. For more details, please refer to this guide.

Release v1.89.1

Production Release Date: 21/04/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 13/04/2023

  • We are delighted to announce that we have rebranded our payment platform! It has been styled with some cozy and refreshing colors to make the experience of utilising Paydock features even more enjoyable. Please check out our brand-new Dashboard and let us know how you like the transition!
  • Implemented a new functionality for Accertify (Standalone Fraud and In-built (Gateway) fraud). Now, it is possible to send the final sale transaction results to Accertify if a Standalone Fraud request was sent to Accertify previously. So that Accertify could improve its fraud detection capabilities in the future which will enhance security. It is possible to enable this option during adding or updating the Accertify service by clicking on the ‘Send Transaction results to Accertify’ checkbox.

    Please keep in mind that to enable this option, a new validation field has been introduced – Merchant ID. You will need to fill out these details to start using a new feature. If the final sale transaction was sent to Accertify, this will be indicated on the charges logs with the additional information:

    1. Synchronization Status

    2. Log creation timestamp

    3. Error details (If any)

    4. If the transaction was not sent to Accertify successfully due to infra issues

  • Extended operations for the Vii Gift Cards. Now it is possible to utilise the following workflows:

    • Refund

    • Reversal

    • Direct Token Creation

    • Auto-Void feature – The auto-void will be triggered in case of the following errors:

      • ‘unknown_error’, ‘tcp_error’ and ‘unknown_internal_error’

    • Added an ability to check the balance using the card number and PIN with the following Endpoint:

      • POST {{url}}/charges/balance

      • { "customer":

      • {"payment_source":

      • { "card_number": "62734010001621723",

      • "card_pin": "6701",

      • "gateway_id": "{{vii_gateway_id}}" } } }

  • We have improved Standalone Refund for MPGS and EFTPOS. Now it is possible to create standalone refunds from the Dashboard using raw card data or vault tokens.

  • We have implemented a new $0 Verification flow for MPGS and EFTPOS gateways. This will help to validate customers’ data and verify credit card details. To submit this payment, go to Charges > Add New > Select Verification as the Payment Type and proceed with the payment.

Release v1.88.1

Production Release Date: 03/04/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 16/03/2023

  • We have added additional custom identifiers for requests that are being sent from Paydock to MPGS:
    • order ID – A unique identifier for this order to distinguish it from any other order you create. 
    • transaction ID – A unique identifier for this transaction to distinguish it from any other transaction on the order.

    This change allows passing the merchant-generated transaction ID & order ID into the requests made to MPGS so that these values can be used for the integration workflows with payment gateways & reconciliation purposes.

    Once those fields are passed to MPGS – they will be stored in the charge external_id field in the “order_id: transaction_id format. If one of the values was not identified by the merchant, Paydock will generate this value automatically. 

  • We have improved the naming of permissions for user and access tokens to a more user-friendly as it is for Feature Toggles. This change has affected the following instances:
    • Global → Global Users → Roles / Access Tokens
    • Brand → Brand Users → Roles / Access Tokens
    • Company → Company Users → Roles / Access Tokens

Release v1.87.1

Production Release Date: 04/03/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 16/03/2023

  • We have improved our Permissions on the Company and Brand levels. Since a different set of permissions are mostly co-dependent, we have implemented a new validation for them. Now you can see a tooltip warning “Please note, this permission has co-dependencies with the following permissions: [list of permissions]”. The permission that will be activated along with the selected one are shown in the tooltip message. This logic is applied to the permissions for:
    • Feature Toggles;
    • Company and Brand user roles;
    • Access tokens for the Company and the Brand levels.
  • Another minor update is that we have removed Reports permissions which are not being used from the user role permissions. Instead, the reporting user permissions will be located under Resource Reports.

Release v1.90.1

Production Release Date: 24/05/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 10/05/2023

API changes:

  • Included reference and source_id fields for a scenario when creating a charge with a customer who does not have a default gateway.

  • Fixed refund error handling for FatZebra and Afterpay V1 where previously charge status would get stuck at the “refund_requested” phase.

  • We added a new card_acceptor.name optional field for EFTPOS payments. The EFTPOS service does not accept more than 40 characters for the card_acceptor.name field.

  • Improved capturing customer.payment_source.type in the logs when the charge is made with OTT or Vault Token.

  • Fixed the logic for switching between virtual and test modes for gateways that support these modes. Previously when performing API requests against the Virtual mode, gateways would switch to Test mode. This now should only happen when explicitly changing the mode.

  • Updated our API documentation with new meta.region value that allows setting region for Direct Debit business days logic.

  • Improved error message when canceling verification charge. Now, 400 status code and Invalid Operation for Verification Charge error message will be received.

  • Improved handling of the custom order_id and transactin_id for MPGS charges:

    • Now if a custom transaction_id value is provided in the void/cancellation request, it will be included in the URL parameter to MPGS.

    • Now the transaction_id character limit is 40. If exceeded, 400 status code and transaction_id/order_id must be shorter than or equal to 40 characters error message will be received.

Widget changes:

  • We have improved our Canvas 3DS widget to handle properly InitAuthTimedOut response.

Release v1.89.1

Production Release Date: 21/04/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 13/04/2023

API changes:

  • We have improved the error mapping for the GPayments and Bambora. We have also improved the way we handle MPGS and Worldpay responses to make sure the provided information is full and corresponds to the description.

  • We have unmasked the Cardholder name for the Standalone 3DS logs.

Widget changes:

  • We have improved validation for the Cardholder Name field to make sure that only relevant information can be passed using this field.

  • Canvas 3DS widget documentation has been updated.

Release v1.88.1

Production Release Date: 03/04/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 16/03/2023

API changes:

  • We have mapped the “cardholderAuthenticationResult” EFTPOS field with “transactions.cardholder_authentication_verification_value” Paydock field to make sure our clients receive full and proper information. Field params are described below:Field type: StringMin/Max symbols: 1Possible values:
    • 0 – CAV not validated due to data error
    • 1 – CAV failed validation
    • 2 – CAV passed validation
    • 3 – CAV validation could not be performed (Authentication attempted, but not completed)
    • 4 – CAV validation could not be performed (System error or authentication failure)
    • 5 – CAV not validated (Issuer is not a CAV service participant)
    • 6 – CAV not validated (Issuer is not set to participate in any CAV service)
  • We have increased the time for processing Direct Debit charges when the “503/504” status code is received to make sure those charges are handled properly and display the correct status.
  • We have added the following additional fields to the logs to provide our clients with full and correct information on the processed charges:
    • service_id
    • service_name
    • service_type

    Those fields will store the id and name of the Fraud or 3DS service that is being used, and the service type (Fraud or 3DS). To test this new enhancement, it is required to create a standalone charge with a vault token and Fraud/3DS service and check the response.

Release v1.87.1

Production Release Date: 03/04/2023

Sandbox Release Date: 16/03/2023

API changes:

  • We have improved the error mapping for the PayPal gateway. Now the “INSTRUMENT_DECLINED” gateway-specific code corresponds to the accurate error description:  “The instrument presented was either declined by the processor or bank, or it can’t be used for this payment” in the Response logs.
  • The “gateway_specific_description“, “error_message“, and “error_code” are displayed now after capturing the already voided and authorised Afterpay charge. To reproduce, the following steps should be taken:
    • Create Afterpay charge;
    • Void full amount;
    • Try to Capture;
    • Check the Response:

      “type”: “capture”,
      “status”: “failed”

Widget changes:

POST v1/charges (or v1/charges/wallet)

{

…,

    fraud: {

        mode: ‘flex’,

        …,

   }

}

  • Map response fields from  MPGS 3DS transaction:
    1. gateway_specific_code = order.status
    2. gateway_specific_description = order.authenticationStatus
    3. error_message = transaction_declined
    4. error_code = gateway_specific_description
  • Merchant Warrior error mapping improvement.

Widget changes:

  • Validation for GooglePay wallet transactions has been updated. If there are an empty string for address_state field, the transaction will no longer result in a failure and will be processed based on the available information.
  • Set up a delay for the AfterpayCheckoutButton to make sure the data is saved for further processing on the backend storage.
  • Validation improvement for the cardholder field to make sure that correct information is passed in this field. This is being done to prevent issues such as card numbers being passed into the cardholder name field, or other unintended data being passed here.
