Both of these new multifactor authentication methods add convenience and security benefits compared to SMS OTPs, as well as enhancing brand recognition and app engagement in the UX around card payment confirmations.
If you choose to use Twilio Authy or Biometrics, one-time-passwords via SMS will be automatically configured as a fallback option to ensure that your customers always have a way to verify their purchases.

Data Insights - Terminology Alignments and Enhancements
We are continuously working on improving the functionality within Data Insights to allow you to analyse and understand your data better. As part of this release, we have worked on various alignments across our dashboards to ensure further consistency and uniformity including:
-
Renaming of ‘Deposits’ within the Managed AccountsManaged Account An account held at a financial institution that can be created and managed through the Weavr platform. Each account has a balance where customers can hold funds. Optionally, an IBAN can be assigned to enable wire transfers to bank accounts outside of Weavr. Incoming TransfersTransfer A transaction that moves funds between instruments managed by Weavr. The source and destination instruments of a transfer transaction must be owned by the same identity. Transfers can be scheduled for future execution and can be performed in bulk operations. dashboard. Going forward, we are referring to this transaction type as ‘Incoming Wire TransferWire Transfer A transaction that moves funds between accounts. An incoming wire transfer moves funds from a third-party bank account to a Weavr managed account, while an outgoing wire transfer moves funds from a Weavr managed account to a third-party bank account. Wire transfers require the managed account to have an assigned IBAN (for EUR) or sort code and account number (for GBP).’. Note that this will be a consistent terminology used throughout all Data Insights dashboards when referring to this transaction type.
-
Currently, Details tables within dashboards show:
- Transaction Base Amount: amount in your billing currency
- Transaction Amount: amount in the original transaction currency
Going forward, the Transaction Amount column will be showing the instrument amount (i.e. the amount in the currency of the instrument). The reason for this enhancement is that the Instrument Amount portrays a more correct value of the transaction since this is the amount that is used to adjust balances. Note that there will be minimal to no changes to the previously reported numbers. This change applies to the following dashboards:
- Card Authorisations
- Card Settlements
- Managed AccountsManaged Account An account held at a financial institution that can be created and managed through the Weavr platform. Each account has a balance where customers can hold funds. Optionally, an IBAN can be assigned to enable wire transfers to bank accounts outside of Weavr. Overview
