Vortex Release Version (December 21, 2025)

New Features and Updates

• Terminal payments now include the surcharge label and surcharge rate when available. This information is captured and persisted throughout the transaction flow and is visible in both Vortex and Checkout payments, improving transparency and accuracy in surcharge reporting.
• Mastercard 3DS support has been enhanced across settlement platforms. UCAF indicators for Mastercard transactions are now correctly populated in the FD North, FD Omaha, and TSYS settlement files, ensuring that settlement records accurately reflect the values received during authorization and comply with Mastercard network specifications.
• An issue in the Priority VTX SMS Settled Report has been resolved where counts were not displayed for the Date column when the Group By filter was applied. Counts now render correctly, providing accurate grouped reporting and clearer data visibility.
• The Visa Field 63.12 sharing group has been updated to reflect the newly selected routing priority. This ensures transactions are processed according to current business requirements and agreed routing configurations across environments.

Impact

These updates improve transaction transparency, settlement accuracy, and reporting reliability across the Vortex platform. By enhancing surcharge visibility, ensuring compliant Mastercard 3DS settlement data, correcting reporting counts, and aligning Visa routing priorities with current requirements, merchants and operations teams benefit from more accurate processing, clearer insights, and reduced risk of discrepancies across payment and settlement workflows.
