<figure><img src="/files/iRIwzpMkaJzW3qnenBrf" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

Two new Virtual Account payment methods are now available on DOKU:

**Bank Sinarmas Virtual Account**

Available for merchants using DOKU Checkout, including Payment Link and Digital Catalog. Once activated, customers will automatically see Bank Sinarmas as one of the available payment options during checkout.

**Bank BJB Virtual Account**

Available for merchants using Direct API integration, allowing businesses with their own payment interface to offer Bank BJB Virtual Accounts to customers.

***

### 💡 Why It Matters

Every business serves different customer segments, and payment preferences often vary by region and banking ecosystem.

By adding Bank BJB and Bank Sinarmas Virtual Accounts, merchants can provide customers with more convenient payment options while reducing the likelihood of abandoned payments caused by limited banking choices or interbank transfer fees.

This expansion also helps businesses increase payment accessibility, particularly for customers in **West Java and Banten** through Bank BJB and customers within the broader **Sinarmas ecosystem**.

***

### **🚀 Updated Experiences**

**🔄 Before**

Previously, merchants could only offer the existing Virtual Account payment methods supported by DOKU.

Customers banking with Bank BJB or Bank Sinarmas often needed to transfer through other banks, potentially incurring additional transfer fees or choosing alternative payment methods.

**🆕 After**

Merchants can now activate Bank BJB and Bank Sinarmas Virtual Accounts directly from the DOKU Dashboard.

Once activated:

* Bank Sinarmas automatically appears on supported DOKU Checkout experiences.
* Direct API merchants can begin accepting payments through Bank BJB.
* Customers enjoy more payment choices using their preferred banking services.

***

### ⚙️ How It Works

Activating the new Virtual Account channels only takes a few steps:

1. Log in to the **DOKU Dashboard**.
2. Navigate to **Settings**.
3. Select **Services**.
4. Click **Add Services**.
5. Under **Bank Transfer**, select:
   * **Virtual Account Bank BJB**
   * **Virtual Account Bank Sinarmas**
6. Save your changes to activate the selected payment methods.

Once activated, the new payment methods will become available based on your integration type.

# Refund Services - Whatsapp Channel

Effective Date: July, 2026

Refund notification and passcode now supports delivery through WhatsApp via the official DOKU Business Account, providing a more secure and reliable way for customers to receive refund notifications.

This update replaces the previous SMS-based notification flow while maintaining the existing refund process for merchants.

[<mark style="color:$primary;">**Learn about Refund Services**</mark>](https://docs.doku.com/payouts/refund-service)

<figure><img src="/files/aH7jJEfoYD9vMhKMcgfk" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

Refund notifications are now delivered through **WhatsApp** instead of SMS for merchants who enable the feature.

Customers will receive their refund information directly through the official DOKU WhatsApp account, including the refund link, verification passcode, expiration information, and action button where applicable.

Depending on the refund type, customers will receive one of two notification formats:

* **Refund Link** – includes a refund link, verification passcode, expiry information, and **"Receive Refund"** call-to-action.
* **Direct Refund** – includes refund confirmation and a **"Check Status"** button without requiring a passcode.

***

### 💡 Why It Matters

SMS has long been used as the primary notification channel for Refund Link. However, SMS delivery introduces security risks, including the possibility of unauthorized access to refund links or delayed message delivery.

By moving notifications to WhatsApp, DOKU provides a more trusted communication channel while strengthening refund security through passcode verification and official business messaging.

This enhancement helps merchants improve customer confidence throughout the refund process while reducing potential fraud risks.

***

### **🚀 Updated Experiences**

#### 🔄 Before&#x20;

Previously, customers received Refund Link notifications via SMS.

Although functional, SMS delivery presented several challenges:

* Refund notifications could be delayed or fail to reach customers.
* SMS messages were more vulnerable to interception by unauthorized parties.
* Customers relied on SMS to access refund links, creating potential security risks during the refund process.

#### 🆕 After

Beginning August 10th, 2026, all refund communications will default to WhatsApp and/or email if applicable Refund notifications delivered through the **official DOKU WhatsApp Business Account**.

Depending on the refund type, customers will receive either:

* **Refund Link** — including a secure refund link, verification passcode, expiry information, and a **"Receive Refund"** button.
* **Direct Refund** — including a refund confirmation message and a **"Check Status"** button without requiring a passcode.

This provides a more secure, reliable, and familiar refund experience while helping reduce the risk of unauthorized refund access.

***

### &#x20;📌 Refund Methods

**Non-Direct Refund**

They will open the link and enter their own bank account details before the refund is processed. **Best for:** Merchants who do not have the customer's bank account information.

**Direct Refund**

The customer receives a WhatsApp notification confirming the refund, without needing to enter any additional information. **Best for:** Merchants who already have the customer's bank account information.

***

### ⚙️ How It Works

* **Enable** WhatsApp Notification for your merchant account.
* Continue sending refund requests using the existing **customer\_phone** parameter — no API changes are required.
* DOKU automatically delivers the refund notification through the official WhatsApp Business Account.
* Customers receive the appropriate notification based on the refund type:
  * **Refund Link** with passcode verification, or
  * **Direct Refund** with refund status confirmation.
* Customers complete the refund process securely through the provided WhatsApp message.

***

### **💼 Key Feature**

* Deliver Refund Link notifications through the official DOKU WhatsApp Business Account.
* Support dedicated notification formats for Refund Link and Direct Refund.
* Include passcode verification for Refund Link transactions.
* Improve delivery reliability compared to SMS notifications.
* Strengthen refund security by reducing the risk of unauthorized refund access.
* No API changes required for existing Refund Link integrations.

***

### **📌 Key Details**

* No API parameter changes are required. Merchants continue using the existing **customer\_phone** field.
* WhatsApp notification must be **enabled by the merchant** and is not activated by default.
* Once WhatsApp notification is activated, SMS notification will be automatically disabled for that merchant.
* Passcode verification is only applicable to **Refund Link** transactions. Direct Refund notifications do not require a passcode.

# Sub Account V2 - Fund Oversight

Effective Date: July, 2026

Fund Oversight is a new capability under Wallet as a Service (WaaS) that enables businesses to connect employee DOKU e-Wallet accounts directly to the Merchant Dashboard. This feature helps businesses distribute operational funds, monitor balances, and track transactions in real time from a single platform.

Designed for businesses with multiple branches or field teams, Fund Oversight simplifies operational fund management without requiring API integration.

#### [<mark style="color:$primary;">Explore More about Fund Oversight</mark>](https://docs.doku.com/wallet-as-a-service/sub-account/fund-oversight?q=#managing-linked-accounts)

#### [<mark style="color:$primary;">Try Fund Oversight Sandbox Demo</mark>](https://sandbox.doku.com/sac-demo-fundoversight/)

<figure><img src="/files/k3aNoHhL4jzW8SyrWQOi" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

Fund Oversight introduces **Account Linking**, allowing DOKU e-Wallet accounts to be connected directly to a merchant's WaaS dashboard.

Once linked, businesses can distribute funds to employees or operational teams, monitor wallet balances in real time, and review transaction history from a centralized dashboard.

Accounts can be linked through two methods:

* **User-Initiated** – employees link their own wallet using a Sub-Account Referral Code from the DOKU e-Wallet application.
* **Merchant-Initiated** – businesses invite users directly from the dashboard, individually or through bulk CSV upload.

***

### 💡 Why It Matters

Many businesses with multiple branches or operational teams still manage petty cash through manual bank transfers, messaging applications, and spreadsheet reporting.

These processes provide limited visibility into how operational funds are used and require finance teams to spend significant time verifying balances and reconciling expenses.

Fund Oversight digitizes this workflow by allowing businesses to distribute and monitor operational funds in real time, improving financial visibility while reducing manual administrative work.

***

### 🚀 How It Works

#### 🔄 Before

Previously, businesses managed operational funds through manual processes.

Typical activities included:

* Finance teams transferred funds individually to employees or branch accounts.
* Employees shared proof of transfer through messaging applications.
* Spending was monitored using spreadsheets or manual reports.
* Finance teams reconciled balances periodically, often at the end of the day or month.

#### 🆕 After

With Fund Oversight, employee wallets can be linked directly to the merchant dashboard.

Finance teams can distribute operational funds, monitor wallet balances, and review transaction activity in real time without manual reconciliation. Every linked wallet becomes visible from a centralized dashboard, providing greater transparency over company spending while simplifying operational fund management.

***

### ⚙️ How It Works

Getting started with Fund Oversight is simple:

1. Enable Account Linking through Wallet as a Service.
2. Link employee wallets using either:
   * Referral Code from the DOKU e-Wallet App, or
   * Merchant Dashboard (individual or CSV upload).
3. Once linked, employee wallets become visible within the merchant dashboard.
4. Finance teams can distribute operational funds directly to linked wallets.
5. Businesses can monitor balances, transaction history, and fund usage in real time from a single dashboard.

[For complete implementation guidance, please refer to the **DOKU API References**.](https://developers.doku.com/wallet-as-a-service/sub-account/sub-account-v2)

***

### **💼 Key Feature**

* Account Linking through the DOKU e-Wallet application
* Merchant Dashboard for centralized account management
* Real-time balance monitoring
* Transaction history and financial mutation tracking
* Individual and bulk account linking via CSV import
* No API integration required for basic account linking

***

### **📌 Key Details**

Before implementing Fund Oversight, please note:

* Employees must have an active **DOKU e-Wallet** account before linking.

<figure><img src="/files/KzbzE3jt5yF58t3AItuB" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

Deposit System introduces a pre-funded balance model for businesses that operate through agent, reseller, or franchise networks.

&#x20;With this update, businesses can:

* Automatically assign a static DOKU BRI Virtual Account to every sub-account
* Allow agents and partners to top up balances independently
* Deduct balances automatically for every transaction
* Monitor balances across all partners from one dashboard

***

### 💡 Why It Matters

Managing deposits manually often requires bank transfer verification, spreadsheet tracking, and periodic reconciliation.

Deposit System simplifies this process by automating partner top-ups, balance updates, and transaction deductions, giving businesses better operational control while reducing administrative work.

***

### &#x20;🚀 Updated Experience

### 🔄 Before

Previously, businesses needed to manually manage partner deposits.

Typical operational activities included:

* Agents transferred funds to the company's bank account.
* Finance teams manually verified incoming transfers.
* Deposit balances were updated manually.
* Balance reports were maintained using spreadsheets.
* Partners often needed to wait before being able to transact.

### 🆕 After

With Deposit System, every sub-account automatically receives its own dedicated **DOKU BRI Virtual Account**.

Partners can top up their balances independently at any time, while DOKU automatically updates balances once payment is received. Businesses can immediately monitor available balances, deduct funds programmatically, and initiate payouts without manual verification or reconciliation.

***

### 🚀 How It Works

* Register a new Sub-Account through Collect & Route.
* A dedicated **DOKU BRI Virtual Account** is automatically generated for that sub-account.
* Partners transfer funds to their assigned Virtual Account.
* Once payment is received, the balance is updated automatically in real time.
* Businesses can immediately use the available balance for Debit API transactions or initiate payouts through the Transfer API.

# Sub Account V2 - Collect and Route

Effective Date: July, 2026

Collect & Route is a fund orchestration capability within Sub Account that enables businesses to collect payments, automatically distribute funds, manage balances, and process payouts through a single integration.

Designed for platforms that manage transactions across multiple parties, Collect & Route helps automate fund movement while reducing manual reconciliation, allowing businesses to operate more efficiently as they scale.

#### [<mark style="color:$primary;">Explore More about Collect and Route</mark> ](https://docs.doku.com/wallet-as-a-service/sub-account/collect-and-route)

<figure><img src="/files/C6oPcw097UEiADQabY3C" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

Collect & Route now supports a complete end-to-end fund orchestration flow, including:

* Multiple money-in methods through DOKU Checkout, Direct API, or built-in BRI Virtual Account
* Automatic fund distribution using configurable Split Rules
* Balance management across multiple sub-accounts
* Real-time balance deduction through the Debit API
* Double-entry ledger for accurate fund tracking
* Payouts to bank accounts and supported e-Wallets

***

### 💡 Why It Matters

Businesses that collect payments on behalf of multiple parties often spend significant time reconciling transactions manually. Payments usually arrive in one merchant account, requiring teams to determine how much belongs to each seller, agent, or partner before initiating payouts.

Collect & Route automates this entire process by identifying where every payment belongs the moment it is received, reducing operational effort while improving financial accuracy.

***

### ✨ Updated Experiences

### 🔄 Before

Previously, businesses typically managed payment distribution manually.

A customer payment was first received into a single merchant account before finance teams needed to:

* Identify which seller or partner owned each transaction.
* Calculate commissions manually.
* Perform internal fund reconciliation.
* Transfer funds individually to each recipient.
* Track balances using spreadsheets or internal systems.

As transaction volumes increased, these processes became increasingly time-consuming and prone to operational errors.

### 🆕 After

With Collect & Route, payment routing becomes part of the payment process itself.

When accepting a payment, merchants simply specify the destination sub-account and, if required, a Split Rule. DOKU automatically routes incoming funds, applies revenue sharing rules, records every balance movement, and prepares funds for payout after settlement.

This allows businesses to automate complex fund flows while maintaining complete visibility over every transaction.

***

### 🚀 How It Works

* Register a Sub-Account for each seller, partner, or operational entity.
* Create a Split Rule to define how incoming payments should be distributed.
* Accept payments through DOKU Checkout API or Direct API by including the destination sub-account and optional Split Rule.
* DOKU automatically routes and distributes funds according to the configured business rules.
* Once settlement is completed, merchants can initiate payouts directly to bank accounts or supported destination

[Or learn more how to integrate in API References](https://developers.doku.com/wallet-as-a-service/sub-account/sub-account-v2)

***

### **💼 Key Capabilities**

* Collect payments through Checkout API, Direct API, or built-in BRI Virtual Account.
* Automatically distribute funds using configurable Split Rules.
* Support Percentage and Flat Amount revenue sharing models.
* Monitor balances across multiple sub-accounts in real time.
* Track fund movement through a double-entry ledger.
* Process payouts to supported Indonesian bank accounts.
* Manage multiple business models through a single integration.

# Digital Catalog - Custom Field per Product

Effective Date: June 26th, 2026

Digital Catalog now introduces Custom Fields, giving merchants a simple way to collect product-specific order details directly during checkout. This ensures every order arrives complete with the information needed to fulfill it correctly, without manual follow-up.

Beginning 26th June 2026, merchants can configure up to three custom fields per product, and customers will see these fields directly on the product page before completing their purchase.

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

Digital Catalog product pages now support configurable **Custom Fields**, completed by customers before checkout.

This update ensures:

* Accurate, product-specific order details collected upfront
* Reduced manual follow-up via chat or email
* Greater flexibility in managing how and when products go live

***

### The New Checkout Flow

#### 🔄 **Before This Update**

Today, the purchase flow goes straight from product page to checkout, with no way to collect additional order-specific details. While functional, this creates a gap for merchants selling personalized, customizable, or booking-based products and important details like engraving text, variant preference, or delivery instructions can only be collected manually after payment.

Steps:

1. Customer visits product page
2. Customer proceeds directly to checkout
3. Customer completes payment
4. Merchant manually follows up to collect missing order details (if needed)

<figure><img src="/files/Y89LTVWGgbRlJXeu1BC7" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### 🆕 **After This Update**

With Custom Fields, the purchase flow now includes a step for customers to provide product-specific details before checkout and ensuring merchants receive complete order information from the start.

Steps:

1. Customer visits product page
2. Custom fields are displayed (e.g., engraving text, product preference, participant name)
3. Customer completes required information
4. Customer proceeds to checkout and completes payment
5. Merchant receives order details together with the transaction

{% hint style="success" %}
**Benefit**

Merchants get exactly the information they need to fulfill the order right — no extra steps, no manual chasing.
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="/files/v9R1Ge7QhGgF3Eq7ZAw8" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

***

### ✅ Key Details

**Up to 3 Custom Fields per Product**\
Merchants can configure up to three custom fields for each product in their Digital Catalog.

**Two Field Types Available**\
Merchants can choose between Text Input (for open-ended responses like engraving text or delivery notes) or Dropdown Select (for predefined options like size or variant).

**Optional or Required**\
Each custom field can be marked as required, ensuring customers cannot proceed to checkout without providing essential information.

**Product Management Controls**\
Products can be saved as Draft, Published when ready, or Unpublished when no longer available.

**Verification Workflow**\
Newly published or edited products go through a verification process before becoming visible in the Digital Catalog.

***

### 📌 Important Notes

* Products without custom fields will continue to follow the existing purchase flow with no additional steps.
* We recommend reviewing your product catalog and identifying which products would benefit from custom fields — especially personalized items, bookings, or made-to-order products.
* For assistance setting up Custom Fields, contact our Care Team at <care@doku.com> or (021) 1500963.

While functional, this often results in incomplete or inconsistent customer data, requiring merchants to follow up manually after payment to confirm delivery details.

Steps:

1. Customer reaches Checkout Page
2. Customer selects payment method directly
3. Customer completes payment
4. Merchant manually follows up to collect missing customer or shipping information (if needed)

#### 🆕 **After This Update**

With Customer Data Collection, the checkout now follows a structured 2-step flow, ensuring every transaction comes with complete and verified customer information from the start.

Steps:

1. Customer fills in name, email, phone number, location, and address. The 'Next' button stays disabled until all required fields are complete.
2. Customer selects a payment method. Submitted customer data appears in the Order Summary panel under "Customer Information," with an option to edit.
3. If the customer clicks 'Edit' in Step 2, a confirmation modal warns that unsaved payment data will be lost, with options to 'Cancel' or 'Edit Customer'.
4. Customer completes payment.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Benefit**

Merchants receive complete, verified customer and shipping data with every transaction with no manual follow-up required.
{% endhint %}

***

### ✅ Key Details

**API Based Activation**\
Customer Data Collection is not active by default. Merchants must add the required object to the request body to enable this feature.

Customers can review and edit their submitted information before completing payment, with safeguards to prevent accidental loss of payment progress.

***

### 📌 Important Notes

# Simpler Business Data Clarification

Effective Date: May, 2026

DOKU has revamped the KYB (Know Your Business) Resubmission experience, giving merchants a clearer, faster, and more intuitive way to resubmit rejected or missing verification data directly from the DOKU Dashboard and no support ticket needed.

The key insight behind this update: only 21 out of 5,239 merchants updated their data after being rejected once. The root cause wasn't unwillingness and it was a confusing experience that left merchants without clear guidance on what went wrong or how to fix it.

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

The entire KYB Resubmission flow has been redesigned across five areas: Notifications, Dashboard, Approvals Settings, Business Information, and KYB Review Flow — making resubmission fully self-service and actionable.

This update ensures:

* Merchants understand exactly why their data was rejected
* Resubmission is fully self-service and no support contact needed
* Only data that requires action is shown, reducing cognitive overload
* Merchants can upload additional documents directly from the Dashboard

#### **📢 Notification**

<table><thead><tr><th width="144.99993896484375">Description</th><th width="297">Before</th><th>New</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Verification Rejected</td><td><p><img src="/files/wRjQWiDFPNraARAxb16S" alt="" data-size="original"></p><p></p></td><td><img src="/files/ayvxSUlodld5tCjy2aBT" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td>Verification Succesfull</td><td><p><img src="/files/JvPHBJCrXJO7bDZ6KgmW" alt="" data-size="original"></p><p></p></td><td><p><img src="/files/Vr9phTiB2DOfiITdngNY" alt="" data-size="original"></p><p></p></td></tr><tr><td>Under Review</td><td><p><img src="/files/gtdg7hrny8ob4ynrSr4J" alt="" data-size="original"></p><p></p></td><td><p><img src="/files/T1klSMoaSyj5sUm95TYo" alt="" data-size="original"></p><p></p></td></tr><tr><td>Requesting Additional Data</td><td><em>not available</em></td><td><p><img src="/files/GuMAzZnWSM9l70FOnGpk" alt="" data-size="original"></p><p></p></td></tr></tbody></table>

***

### How the KYB Resubmission is Changing

#### 🔄 **Before This Update**

Merchants who received a KYB rejection had no clear indication of what went wrong or how to fix it. Notification messages were vague, the resubmission flow was unintuitive, and merchants were left without a clear path forward and often having to contact the support team manually just to understand next steps.

The result: only 0.4% of rejected merchants successfully updated their data that a clear signal that the experience was broken, not the merchants.

Steps:

1. Merchant submits KYB verification
2. Verification is rejected or flagged
3. Merchant receives a vague rejection notification with no clear next step
4. Merchant contacts support team for guidance
5. Manual back-and-forth to collect missing documents or clarify rejection reasons
6. Merchant resubmits — if they haven't dropped off already

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Risk**

High verification drop-off, increased support ticket volume, and delayed merchant activation.
{% endhint %}

#### 🆕 **After This Update**

With the revamped KYB experience, merchants can now see exactly what was rejected, what needs to be fixed, and take action with all from within the DOKU Dashboard.

Steps:

1. Merchant submits KYB verification
2. If rejected or flagged, merchant receives a clear notification with specific rejection reasons and a direct CTA to update data
3. Verification banner and persistent Reminder Bar appear in Dashboard until all required data is updated
4. Merchant follows a structured checklist to resubmit the correct data and with guideline available for rejected brand data
5. Merchant views full approval/rejection history in the All Data tab under Approvals Settings
6. Resubmission completed independently with no support involvement needed

{% hint style="success" %}
**Benefit**

Faster verification completion, lower support ticket volume, and a smoother path to full merchant activation.
{% endhint %}

***

### 📌 Important Notes

* This is a Dashboard UX improvement — no API changes or merchant integration required.
* Merchants with outstanding KYB rejections can log in to their DOKU Dashboard and check their Approvals Settings for pending action items.
* New merchants going through onboarding who encounter KYB issues will be covered under the upcoming Revamp Onboarding initiative.
* For assistance, contact our Care Team at <care@doku.com> or (021) 1500963.

Steps:

1. International customer visits merchant
2. Customer unable to pay using their local payment app
3. Customer resorts to cash or other manual payment methods

Steps:

1. International customer visits merchant
2. Customer scans the merchant's existing DOKU QRIS code

# Checkout Retry Payment for OVO

Effective Date: January 29th, 2026

DOKU Checkout now supports Retry Payment for OVO, allowing customers to retry failed OVO payments without restarting the checkout process.

Previously, OVO payments had a one-minute payment window. When the payment timed out or was not completed within that period, customers had to restart the checkout process, often resulting in abandoned payments. This enhancement helps improve the payment experience while increasing successful transaction completion.

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

Customers using OVO as their payment method can now:

* Retry failed OVO payments directly from the Checkout Page
* Continue using the same checkout session without restarting
* Complete payment using the same invoice

***

### &#x20;🚀 How It Works

#### 🔄 **Before This Update**&#x20;

If an OVO payment timed out or failed, customers had to restart the entire checkout process to make another payment attempt.

Process:

1. Customer selects OVO as the payment method.
2. Payment expires or fails.
3. Customer must restart the checkout process.
4. A new payment attempt is created.

#### 🆕 **After This Update**

Customers can now retry their OVO payment directly from the existing Checkout Page.

Process:

1. Customer selects OVO as the payment method.
2. Payment expires or fails.
3. Customer clicks Retry Payment.
4. Payment is retried using the same invoice until it is successfully completed or the invoice expires.

***

### 📌 Key Details

**Supported Payment Method**\
This feature is available for OVO payments on DOKU Checkout.

**Same Invoice**\
Retry attempts use the existing invoice without generating a new order or invoice ID.

No additional integration, configuration, or development is required. The feature is automatically available for merchants using OVO on DOKU Checkout.

***

### ⚠️ Important Notes

* Retry is available for payments that fail due to timeout or incomplete payment.
* Customers can retry payment as long as the invoice remains valid and has not expired.
* Once the invoice expires, customers must initiate a new checkout session.

# Refund Service - Passcode Authentication

Effective Date: November 17th, 2025

To strengthen refund security and protect customers from unauthorized access, DOKU Refund Service now introduces a mandatory passcode authentication step before the refund process begins. This ensures every refund request is verified and secure from the start.

Beginning **17 November 2025**, all refund processes will require customers to enter a unique passcode sent via SMS or email.

***

### 🔍 What’s New?

<figure><img src="/files/jrQKHUCsx0emmSgYgLjA" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Refund processing now includes a **unique** **passcode** sent to the customer along with the refund link.

This update ensures:

* Higher security on each refund request
* Minimized risk of unauthorized actions
* Verified-user protection for approval and initiation steps

<table><thead><tr><th width="152.80078125">Delivery Method</th><th>Description</th><th>Before</th><th>New</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>SMS</td><td>Sent based on customer’s registered phone number</td><td><img src="/files/EfGyphhEV9u1QF0PBPhi" alt=""></td><td><img src="/files/m5WlnKKuZpEzMjT7GaSV" alt=""></td></tr><tr><td>Email</td><td>Sent when an email address is available</td><td><img src="/files/YJh7W7dr3JrgXK1XzoJe" alt=""></td><td><img src="/files/lQScfa92At53mGnayKwl" alt=""></td></tr></tbody></table>

***

### How the Refund Process is Changing

#### 🔄 **Current Process**

Today the refund flow begins directly with account selection and input. While functional this flow includes a potential risk. If an unauthorized individual gains access to the refund link they may attempt to redirect the refund to another bank account.

Steps:

1. Customer chooses refund destination account
2. Customer inputs bank account number
3. Bank account validation
4. Customer confirms bank account information
5. Refund processed and customer is redirected to tracker page

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Risk**

Without an authentication layer an unauthorized user could obtain the link and misuse it.
{% endhint %}

#### 🆕 **Future Process**

With the new authentication step the refund journey begins with passcode entry. This ensures only the rightful customer can access and complete the refund.

Steps:

1. Customer inputs passcode
2. Customer chooses refund destination account
3. Customer inputs bank account number
4. Bank account validation
5. Customer confirms bank account information
6. Refund processed and customer is redirected to tracker page

{% hint style="success" %}
**Benefit**

The passcode adds a stronger layer of protection right at the start.
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="/files/4Jt5Mspf8wuFeNfbWva9" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

***

### ✅ Usage & Validity

**One Passcode per Refund**\
A passcode is generated uniquely for every refund process.

**Validity Period Follows the Refund Link**\
If the refund link expires in 7 days, the passcode also follows the same 7-day validity.

**Incorrect Attempts Lockout**\
Entering the wrong passcode three times will lock the refund page for 30 minutes before retry is allowed.

**Passcode Format**\
Each code consists of 6 random alphanumeric characters (e.g., A1B2C3).

***

### 📌 Important Notes

Refunds created before the implementation date (without passcode) and still in **link sent/opened** status will be re-processed.\
The system will automatically resend the refund link to customers, now complete with the required passcode.

We recommend informing your customers so they can complete the refund process smoothly.

# Checkout - New Fields and Status Values on Check Status API

* `ORDER_EXPIRED` – Order expired without payment.

***

**2. `PENDING` status for Direct API**

The enum value `PENDING` will now appear in the `transaction.status` field to indicate that the payment is still in progress and awaiting confirmation (applies to channels such as Credit Card, ShopeePay, and others).

***

**3. Null values for unselected channels**

If a customer has not yet selected a payment channel, the following fields will return `null`:

# Dashboard - New Settlement Settings

NEW - Streamlined Multi-Branch Fund Settlement with the New Settlement Settings!

In multi-branch business setups, financial liquidity heavily relies on seamless fund transfers. Factors such as differing bank accounts, variable transfer schedules, and branch-specific transaction types can make fund settlement more complex and potentially delay operations if not properly organized. To address this, DOKU introduces **the New Settlement Settings**.

<figure><img src="/files/1glDr3brI91ozEs7B9fX" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

DOKU’s **New Settlement Settings** provides a robust solution for multi-branch businesses, enabling them to configure fund settlements with precision and adaptability to meet the unique financial management needs of each branch.

**Core Functionalities:**

* **Customized Settlement Destinations Per Branch and Payment Channel**\
  For enhanced flexibility, merchants can now assign specific bank accounts to each branch and even direct payments by type or channel (e.g., sending virtual account settlements to one account while directing credit card payments to another). <br>

  <figure><img src="/files/DZiAq5bzpESA8jzTdhUm" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

  This setup helps businesses efficiently manage multiple revenue streams without complex manual adjustments.
* **Flexible Scheduling and Minimum Settlement Amounts**\
  To support varying cash flow needs, merchants can configure branch-specific settlement schedules—daily, monthly, or bi-monthly—to keep operations in sync with each branch’s financial cycles.

  <figure><img src="/files/bLjlcfA2Lo0ROenhcJCx" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

  Additionally, by setting minimum settlement amounts, businesses can ensure payouts align with targeted fund levels, deferring smaller settlements until a designated threshold is met.
* **Comprehensive, Branch-Level Reporting and Notification Customization**\
  Each branch can access detailed, transparent reports on their fund settlements. Report formats include CSV, XLSX, and PDF, and merchants can personalize templates to align with financial tracking requirements. <br>

  <figure><img src="/files/FnNyiZotZ5FKi3S2hwEN" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

  Notifications for settlement reports can be sent automatically to designated recipients via email or secure SFTP, ensuring timely access to financial data and reducing delays.
* **Intuitive Role-Based Access Control**\
  A user’s role determines their access and control over configuration settings, protecting sensitive information while maintaining operational efficiency. Company Admins manage overall business-level settings, while Branch (Brand) Admins have control over branch-specific settings, maintaining a structured and secure hierarchy in financial operations.

Together, these core functionalities empower multi-branch businesses to streamline fund settlement processes, enhancing overall financial visibility, compliance, and operational autonomy for each branch.

***

**Key Benefits:**

* **Simplified Financial Management for Multi-Brand Merchants**\
  Whether each branch operates with a unique bank account or centralizes transactions, Multibrand Settlement provides flexibility to manage funds based on the business’s exact structural needs. This includes the option for branches to either operate independently or refer to a central business account, ideal for franchises, aggregators, or any business with distributed operations.
* **Enhanced Operational Efficiency with Automation**\
  By automating fund settlement schedules and thresholds, businesses reduce manual intervention, streamline cash flow, and maintain consistent financial health across branches.
* **Improved Cash Flow Oversight and Control**\
  The capability to monitor fund movements and configure branch-specific settlement levels (business or brand level) empowers merchants to adapt quickly to business needs and simplify audit processes.

***

DOKU’s New Settlement Settings ensures that managing multi-branch finances is a structured, automated, and scalable process—giving businesses the tools to maintain full visibility and control over cash flow.
