Originating FI Screening

Added support for multi-party payment flows, letting you route payouts through up to 6 originating financial institutions (OFIs) in a single request.

originating_parties — include your chain of originating parties when submitting a payout; first-time parties undergo a short compliance review, then auto-clear for 12 months

Requires enablement by your Nium account manager. GA rollout June 2026. For more information, see OFI Screening Guide.

Payout Schema API

Added new API that lets you programmatically fetch field requirements, validation rules, and purpose codes for any payout corridor before submitting a transaction - eliminating rejected payouts caused by missing or malformed data. No changes required to existing integrations. Payout Schema API can be queried by destinationCountry, currency, payoutMethod

Available now for all clients. For more information, see Payout Validation Schema.

V5 Simulate Customer Onboarding Status

We've introduced simulation support for V5 Customer Onboarding, enabling users to drive compliance state transitions using action-based controls — submit_kyc, raise_rfi, clear, and reject — across both individual and corporate customer types. This release aligns simulation capabilities with the V5 data model, where customer lifecycle state is tracked through a combined status and subStatus pair for finer-grained control when testing compliance flows. For more information, see Simulate Customer Onboarding Status (V5).
