PayConex - 08.13.2026
In this release, we’ve focused on Checkout Component payment method improvements, stronger card-data validation, Chase Paymentech settlement flexibility, and a set of processor, receipt, and UI fixes informed by merchant and integrator feedback. Below is a summary of the key updates included in this release.
Key Updates and Enhancements
Checkout Component — saved ACH payment methods
Merchants can now load a customer’s previously saved ACH payment token into the Checkout Component alongside saved cards. Customers can select a stored bank account from their Saved Payment Methods list, confirm the account details, and complete checkout without re-entering ACH information.
Card expiration validation
PayConex now validates card expiration dates earlier in the tokenization and transaction processing workflow. Invalid expiration values—such as non-numeric data, unsupported formats, or invalid months—are rejected early across affected card-entry flows, reducing failures later in tokenization, 3-D Secure initialization, or sale/auth processing.
Chase Paymentech settlement method flexibility
Chase Paymentech accounts with auto-settlement enabled can now select API or FILE settlement independently of the preferred settlement time. API settlement is supported at any auto-settlement hour, so merchants can keep their existing end-of-business schedules while PayConex routes settlement through the correct method.
Transaction source recognition
Transactions submitted by the nopCommerce Plugin are now recognized as a valid transaction source in PayConex. Transaction history and details display nopCommerce Plugin instead of unspecified, making it easier to identify where those payments originated.
Bug Fixes
Checkout and payment APIs
- Expired reusable cards in Checkout. Selecting an expired reusable card in the Checkout UI again prompts for updated card information (such as a new expiry date) instead of skipping ahead in the flow.
- Unicode / emoji characters in V4 requests. Fixed a server error that could occur when certain V4 payment fields (including
extTransactionId) contained emoji or other Unicode characters. - Click to Pay with empty Address Line 2. Using a Click to Pay token in a transaction no longer fails with an internal server error when billing Address Line 2 is empty or null.
Processors and settlement
- Missing batch dates after successful batching. Fixed an issue where some successfully batched transactions were missing a batch date in PayConex, which could affect UI display, reporting, and reconciliation.
- FIS batch settlement totals. Corrected batch total and transaction count reconciliation for FIS settlements so voids, refunds, credits, and related transaction types are handled consistently when closing batches.
- PTS settlement matching. Improved PTS settlement acknowledgement matching by amount and related fields, reducing settlement failures caused by amount-format and matching issues.
- PTS long EMV TLV data. Device transactions on PTS with TLV data longer than 999 characters now process correctly instead of failing.
- Elavon device-store transactions. Resolved an exception that could occur when running Elavon device-store transactions.
Receipts and PayConex UI
- Blank email receipts. Fixed an issue where certain accounts could send email receipts with a blank body, so recipients again see expected transaction receipt details.
- Session timeout on processor settings. Corrected the session timeout / 2FA dialog behavior when accessing processor settings after a timed-out UI session.
