#### 04-08-2025

## New feature

#### Reminder settings now supported via PATCH paylinks

You can now update reminder settings on a paylink using PATCH /paylinks/v1/paylinks/{{paylink_id}}. Previously, this endpoint only allowed updates to email, phone number, or cancellation. It now accepts:

- reminder
  - reminder_interval_count
  - reminder_interval_frequency  

Use this to turn reminders on or off, or update the reminder frequency.

## Updates

#### Minimum intent amounts updated by provider

- Blink live: minimum is now 0.01
- Blink simulator: remains 1
- Stripe (live and simulator): remains 0.30

#### Case-insensitive support for currency and transaction_type

These fields now accept values regardless of case — for example, gbP, USD, Sale, or preAuth.

#### AVS/CV2 decline messages now show specific reasons

Declines for AVS/CV2 mismatches now return detailed reasons based on the avscv2ResponseCode field such as “CV2 not matched” or “Postcode partially matched” where available. These are now also stored in payment_events.

## Bug fixes

*Apple Pay sheet now loads for 1-decimal amounts* Amounts like 1.10 or 1.20 no longer round to a single decimal (e.g. 1.1), resolving loading issues in the Apple Pay sheet.
