Shipped

July 2026

  • Checkout return redirects now always include the payment ID for every payment method, and the sessions API returns paymentId once a session is paid, so the session ID alone is enough to look up the payment

    Checkout
  • Every email redesigned: receipts, refunds, invoices, reminders and codes get a cleaner look in English and Nepali, sent from clear addresses (receipts@, billing@, id@) with your logo, brand color and support email on buyer emails, and a live preview in the dashboard

    Platform
  • Hosted checkout is now bilingual: a one-tap toggle switches the whole checkout, and your PayBridgeNP ID, between English and Nepali (Devanagari), and it remembers each buyer's choice

    Localization
  • Fonepay app-native checkout (Intent) is live: buyers open their bank or wallet app straight from checkout to approve the payment instead of scanning a QR. Enabled per merchant on an eligible plan.

    Providers
  • eSewa app-native checkout now works in live mode: buyers open the eSewa app directly (scan-to-pay QR on desktop) with your own eSewa production credentials on an eligible plan

    Providers
  • Turn the PayBridgeNP ID save prompt on or off per project, overriding your merchant default from the project's Branding settings

    PayBridgeNP ID
  • New plans: Free, Growth (NPR 1,999), Pro (NPR 4,999), and Enterprise, with per-plan SMS receipt allowances, project limits, and volume bands on the pricing page

    Platform
  • Collect a subscription invoice with a Fonepay QR: generate a scan-to-pay QR for any open invoice, and when the customer pays, the invoice is marked paid and the subscription activates automatically. Ideal for in-person or in-app recurring billing.

    Billing

June 2026

  • Choosing eSewa on a payment link now opens the eSewa app directly on mobile (and shows a scan-to-pay QR on desktop), the same app-native checkout the hosted flow already had

    Providers
  • More reliable refunds: test-mode refunds complete instantly, failures show a clear reason instead of raw provider errors, and we fixed a rare hang when issuing or syncing a refund

    Providers
  • Refund Fonepay payments from the dashboard, with a buyer confirmation email and a clear reason when a refund fails

    Providers
  • Payment Links and checkout sessions are now in the API and the TS + PHP SDKs (v5.1.0): create, list, update, cancel, or delete payment links, and look up any checkout session programmatically

    Developers
  • Billing API responses are now cleaner and more consistent across every endpoint, with refreshed TS, PHP, and Python SDKs (now including tax settings)

    Developers
  • Subscriptions are prepaid: a subscription activates only after its first invoice is paid, instead of going live before payment

    Billing

May 2026

  • Archive projects + close accounts: soft-delete with 30-day self-restore, all historical data retained

    Dashboard
  • Unified account switcher: one menu lists every account you can access, with a check on the current one
