Change Type

Currency validation / acceptance

Region Impacted

Bulgaria-related flows

Effective Date

25 December 2025

Summary

To align with ISO 4217 updates and upstream FX/provider support, Tazapay will discontinue support for BGN and require EUR as the sole supported currency for Bulgaria-related transactions starting 25 December 2025.

What’s Changing

1. Currency Acceptance for New Transactions

From 25 December 2025 onward, any new Bulgaria-related transaction using BGN will be rejected. EUR will become the only accepted local currency for Bulgaria-related flows across:
  • Collections
  • Holding
  • Checkout
  • Payment links
  • Pay-ins
  • Payouts
  • Settlements
  • Refunds
  • Adjustments

2. Historical Visibility

  • Existing BGN transactions will remain visible in the dashboard and reports for historical reference.

Developer Migration Guidance

Required Action (for API Integrators)

  • Update integration logic to ensure EUR is used for all Bulgaria-related transactions.
  • If currency is passed via API parameters, ensure BGN is no longer used when the transaction is Bulgaria-linked.

No Action Required

  • Transactions already processed in BGN require no changes and will remain available for historical viewing and reporting.

Backward Compatibility Notes

  • This change affects only new transaction creation (and other “new action” flows) after the effective date.
  • Reporting and dashboard access for historical BGN records remains unchanged.
