v1.1.0 Acquiring Changed

3-D Secure, AVS and Pre-authorization endpoints — descriptions and examples

Five acquiring endpoints now show their summary and full description straight from the OpenAPI specification, together with every named request and response example. Pick a scenario from the example dropdown to see the exact payload for that case.

POST /v1/3d/enrollment/{init}
Check 3-D Secure enrollment for a card
First step of the 3DS flow — verifies the card is enrolled in a 3-D Secure programme. No financial transaction occurs.
POST /v1/3d/authenticate/{init}
Authenticate a cardholder via 3-D Secure (v2)
Starts the authentication; the response says whether to proceed frictionless or redirect the cardholder to the issuer's ACS.
POST /v1/3d/result/{version}/{init}
Submit the 3-D Secure challenge result
Completes a challenged authentication with the ACS result and returns the eci, cavv and directory_transaction_id for the acquiring call.
POST /v1/avs/{init}
Address Verification Service check
Verifies the billing address and postal code with the issuer as a zero-amount authorization — no funds blocked, no transaction created.
POST /v1/pre-authorization/{init}
Reserve funds on a card (pre-authorization)
Blocks an amount without capturing it; settle with capture or release with reversal. Approved on response codes 00, 10 (partial) and 85.

Read them on the 3-D Secure and Acquiring reference pages.

What changed

  • 3-D Secure — POST /v1/3d/enrollment/{init}, POST /v1/3d/authenticate/{init} and POST /v1/3d/result/{version}/{init} now walk through the enrollment check, the frictionless-or-challenge decision and the challenge result, including how an init session token replaces the card and merchant fields.
  • Address verification — POST /v1/avs/{init} explains the zero-amount authorization behind the check: amount and currency are still required for routing, but no funds are blocked and no transaction is created.
  • Pre-authorization — POST /v1/pre-authorization/{init} documents the hold, the capture / reversal follow-ups and the approved response codes (00, 10 partial approval, 85).
  • Each endpoint carries the specification's named request and response examples — pick a scenario from the dropdown above the JSON to see the exact payload.

v1.0.0 General Added Changed

New design system rolls out across the portal

A redesigned shell, refined typography, a colour-coded alert system and a fully responsive layout — desktop, tablet and mobile.

Highlights

  • New dashboard hero with a live API health rail (production + sandbox status, refreshed in the background).
  • Status-card alerts (12 tones) replace the old callout style — added, changed, fixed, deprecated, breaking, and more.
  • Right-rail card kinds: SDK preview (iOS / Android phone mockup with masked PAN) + Visa API preview (FX widget + endpoint list).
  • Responsive layout: sidebar drawer + topbar appear on tablet; tighter padding and collapsing hero on mobile.

POST /v3/visa/funds-transfer-inquiry
Funds-transfer inquiry
Pre-validate a Visa Direct push-payment before initiation.

What you get

  • Visa rail card on the Visa API page (FX widget + endpoint list).

  • Hover any endpoint chip to see its title + short description inline.

  • Sub-pages with swagger set auto-render request/response tables, JSON examples and code samples — no manual maintenance.

v0.7.0 General Added

⌘K command palette — search the entire portal

Press ⌘K (or Ctrl+K) from anywhere to fuzzy-search across pages, sub-pages and endpoint references. Pinned Quick links + Popular endpoints appear when the input is empty.

How it works

  • Indexes every page + sub-page + swagger operation key into a single static JSON file at build time.
  • Fuzzy match on title, slug, summary, method + path; results group by section.
  • Keyboard nav: ↑/↓ to move, ↵ to open, Esc to close.
  • Custom pin groups — flag a page as Quick link or Popular endpoint via its surface metadata.

v0.6.0 General Added Changed

Responsive layout — tablet drawer, mobile topbar

A four-step breakpoint ladder (1280 / 1024 / 900 / 640). Below 900px the sidebar collapses into a slide-in drawer and a sticky topbar appears with a burger, logo, search trigger and theme toggle.

Behaviour by width

  • ≤ 1280px: tighter content padding, narrower right-rail.
  • ≤ 1024px: main grid collapses; the right rail moves below the content with a top divider.
  • ≤ 900px: sidebar becomes a fixed drawer (slide-in from the left, 280px) — body scroll locks while open. Topbar slot lights up.
  • ≤ 640px: hero illustrations hide, headings scale down, dashboard meta grid collapses to two columns.

The drawer state is driven by a small Stimulus controller (nav-drawer) — Esc / backdrop click / in-drawer link click all close it.
