Adyen Checkout API awarded the Best API

We are happy to share that the Adyen Checkout API has been awarded the "Best Postman API Network Award" for 2024! Our Checkout API Postman collection is ranked 13th place in the Postman API Network. This award underscores our commitment to providing effective developer tools and resources. Check out the Adyen Dev Postman workspace for collections for all our APIs.

Updates

HMAC validation across all API libraries

All our API libraries now support HMAC validation. But why is HMAC so important? HMAC (Hash-based message authentication code) provides security by ensuring data integrity and authenticity between parties. By integrating HMAC, you're protecting your server from unauthorized webhooks events. Check out our documentation to learn how to implement HMAC in your integration.

Build your integration with ease! Explore the new Integration Toolkit collection on Adyen Help. This collection offers an overview of tools and resources to aid your integration process with the Adyen platform. Whether starting from scratch or optimizing your setup, the toolkit has the resources you need.

Webhook configuration for Relayed Authorization now available in Balance Platform

Exciting update for Adyen customers with Issuing integrations: You can now configure webhooks for relayed authorization directly within the Balance Platform Customer Area. This feature allows for more streamlined and responsive transaction processing, ensuring you have real-time updates and control.

Optimizing your webhook integration

Our platform keeps evolving to provide developers with new features, practical tools, and, most importantly, a better experience. As part of this ongoing effort, we have introduced a different way to acknowledge webhooks. Read this blog post on "Optimizing Webhook Integration" for a new, streamlined approach to accepting events from the Adyen platform.
