Summary

In April 2026, a series of product updates were introduced to enhance the developer experience, expand financial data insights, improve platform reliability, and refine payment decisioning. Key updates include the launch of new User APIs that offer a more consistent cross-product experience by simplifying user identity handling, with an optional migration for existing users. Financial insights have been enhanced by including margin balances in the Investments API for major U.S. brokerages, enabling better assessment of portfolio financing. The platform also introduced automated alerts for data partner issues, initially available for Core Exchange integrations, to streamline problem resolution. Additionally, the Signal Risk Platform now allows users to create bank-specific rules for more precise payment decisioning, applicable to Transfer and Signal API customers utilizing Signal Balance Checks or Signal Transaction Scores.
