Rapyd Changelog: Rapyd Verify IDV Check, Swift Payout Update


Rapyd released a changelog with two updates: Rapyd Verify and an update to Swift Payout.

Rapyd Verify now prompts customers to upload a clearer photo of their ID if it is blurry to avoid false KYC errors.

The API reference page provides a workflow of all the steps for identity verification, along with a description of fields, body parameters, request example, and response.

The Swift Payout update allows payouts from USD to Chinese without previously required additional sender information.
