UniCredit S.p.A. (ITALY - CBK) : New Sandbox feature for IBAN selection

We are glad to inform you that in September 2021 we will remove the mandatory Debtor IBAN entry for PISPs.

In particular, since the currently mandatory IBAN provision by the TPP will be changed into a conditional one, from now on 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.  

Real API IP is expected to be live by end of 2021.

We will inform you in due time about the exact date.

PSU IP Address validation go-live

As announced in February starting from July, 24th 2021 an IP address validation will be introduced into our APIs for the “PSU-IP-Address” attribute.
According to Berlin Group 1.3.4 API standard, the PSU-IP-Address (forwarded IP Address header) field consists of the corresponding HTTP request IP Address field between PSU and TPP. It shall be contained if and only if this request was actively initiated by the PSU.

In case the IP validation fails, an error response will be returned to the TPP. All private IP addresses and dummy IP addresses like  0.0.0.0 or 127.0.0.1 will trigger an error after request submission.

Please remark also for PIIS API calls the “PSU-IP-Address” will become mandatory.

Furthermore, due to the release our production APIs will temporarily be unavailable on Saturday, 24th of July 2021, from 01:00 a.m. until 03:00 a.m. CEST and from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. CEST.
