Upcoming changes in Swedish payment infrastructure

Sweden is facing one of the biggest changes in the history of its payment infrastructure, regarding the updated payment type Credit Transfer. Please refer to the information in the below link.

Updated Information:

Please note that the go-live date for Handelsbanken's new PIS API version 2, which includes the updated SEK Credit Transfer, has been postponed from the 4th of May to the 18th of May. The postponement is due to not all banks having completed their connection to the SEK Credit Transfer infrastructure yet. Despite our revised go-live date, please note that Bankgirot's plan for all banks to be connected by the 14th of April remains unchanged. The sandbox remains open and supports the new functionality in PIS API v2, so you can continue to perform your tests there.

What happens when an end user cancels on the payment confirmation window?

Is the transactionStatus in the Payment Initiation flow, updated after the user has signed the SCA flow?

No, the transactionStatus is not updated after the end user has signed the payment. It is updated after the executePayment (PUT) operation.

Description
For Private individuals, execution date can be set up to 12 months in the future. This means that Handelsbanken will monitor and execute the payment on set date. Payments with execution date "today" will be sent for processing directly after final approval. Payments that are monitored are sent for processing to the bank on the execution date's morning, at 07:15 CET.
