2Checkout Release Notes for January 2023

To comply with Croatia's transition to the Eurozone, all auto-renewal subscriptions are billed in Euro (EUR). See more details here. 

Updated API authentication documentation to include information that 2Checkout API supports SHA-256/SHA2-256 and SHA3-256 algorithms. All merchants are strongly advised to migrate to SHA2/SHA3 as MD5 will be soon deprecated.

Implemented 3DS flow for "updateSubscriptionPaymentInformation" API method (on REST, SOAP-RPC, JSON protocols) on MyAccount.

Updated getContents & placeOrder responses in API V 6.0 on all protocols to include discount amount, discount currency, and discount type parameters for Convert Plus cart promotions.

Updated the “CreateEESToken” example from the list of schemas in the REST API documentation with “ordering”, “storage”, “subscription” values of the "Scope" field.

Updated PAY_TYPE parameters with Wechat Pay (WE_CHAT_PAY) preselected payment method for orders. Read more information on Buy link parameters here.

PayPal was removed from Control Panel as a payment method option for merchants from restricted countries that are using the MoR business model for onboarding. More details here.

Improved the "Align invoice date" feature in myAccount. The invoice functionality was redesigned to respond to a top customer need; it was also implemented for all customers with positive impact on customer satisfaction.

Enhanced the loading time of the shopping cart (ConvertPlus and InLine Checkout iFrame) by extending the cache lifetime from 2 days to 30 days. This positively impacts the conversion rate for merchants.

Fixed a defect that caused an edit cart link to appear in the header of one-step InLine cart when initiating an Apple Pay payment.

Fixed a defect that caused One-step InLine payment method flows to not remain selected when the user returned to the checkout page and selected Edit cart.

Fixed a defect that caused placeOrder calls with required fields (Address, City, Country, Email, FirstName, LastName, Phone, State, TaxOffice, Zip) completed with only space characters to process orders. 

Fixed a defect in Control Panel that caused the loading time for the authorization report to be slow and prevented the report from being exported via email.

Fixed a defect that caused merchants who added a new product in Merchant Control Panel to receive an error message "Product saved without tax category. Please retry!" when saving. The product was also wrongly created with tax category "currently unavailable".

Fixed a defect that caused an incorrect amount difference for order refunds in Control Panel.

Fixed a defect in myAccount that prevented the Align invoice date feature from setting the same billing date for two recurring subscriptions with the same billing cycle.

Fixed an issue which caused the GetOrder method to calculate two different values for the Gross Price of the same product, with one value in the Items object and another one in the Price object.
