You can do tests based on our Sandbox response, which already returns the correct response message.

UniCredit Bulbank AD: New features for Real API
We are glad to inform you that the below new features for Real API environment are fully activated.
- Making debtorAccount field optional on POSTinitPaymentRequest will enable TPPs to send PIS requests without this field. Once the user follows the redirect link, user will be forwarded to UniCredit channel. Afterwards, when user passes authorization and authentication, the payment will be displayed with the option to select Payer account based on the logic on payment type and the user’s account rights. Once the user signs the payment, the flow continues in the general way.
- Implementation of Bank-offered account will enable TPPs to send AIS consent requests without dedicated accounts. Once the user follows the redirect link and authenticates, the user will be presented with eligible accounts (based on the user’s account rights). The user will then decide on what permission types and what accounts will grant to the TPPs.
- DebtorName on GETpaymentDetailResponse – enabling additional field (debtor name/ name of the account owner) to be present on API GETpaymentDetail response.
Do not hesitate to contact us via our support form in case of any challenges in using the new features.
