We are pleased to inform you that the new functionality on Sandbox API environment - Debtor Name and IBAN Selection – will be deployed on 22.07.2022.
With IBAN Selection the mandatory Debtor IBAN entry for PISPs will be removed, TPPs will be able to initiate payments even without providing the Debtor IBAN. In such case, the PSU will have the possibility to select the debtor account in the redirect flow.
With Debtor Name a TPP will retrieve the debtorName for an SCT via the GET payment details request.
Updated documentation will be available on the UniCredit Developer Portal.
