We’re continuously fine-tuning and developing our platform so our customers can work smarter and build faster. Here’s the latest lineup of upgrades and improvements.

Markets & coverage

🇸🇪 Sweden

Lunar joins the Open Payments network
We’re thrilled to welcome Lunar, our first neobank integration in Sweden! This marks a big step beyond traditional banks and gives you access to even more users.
You can now connect Lunar accounts through our API to retrieve account and transaction data. Payments from Lunar accounts are coming soon — stay tuned.

Platform-wide Improvements

Better API documentation
Our docs have been refreshed with the latest features, examples, and client feedback. The goal: make integrating with Open Payments as clear and frictionless as possible.

Fraud protection for supplier payments
We’ve launched fraudulent account screening against Svensk Handel’s watchlist. If a payment is initiated to a flagged account, you’ll get a warning message via our API — adding another layer of protection for your users.
More international watchlists are coming soon.

Smarter dual-signing flows
We’ve fine-tuned how we communicate dual-signing requirements across all banks. Messages now clearly indicate whether the signing should happen in the API or directly in the bank — giving users a smoother experience.

Standardized payment statuses
We’ve continued harmonizing payment status reporting, this month for the Swedish banks. This improvement ensures you receive a consistent set of PSD2 payment statuses across all supported Swedish institutions. The work doesn’t stop here — we’ll continue expanding this harmonization to other markets in the coming months to deliver a more unified and reliable payment experience across our products.

That’s it for this time! As always, we’d love to hear your feedback so let us know what you think or if there’s anything you’d like to see in future updates. Just drop us a line: support@openpayments.io
