To ensure our clients experience the most secure and time-efficient reporting process possible, we have implemented two updates to the Way4 system.

First, the Way4 reporting interfaces have been upgraded for simplified handling of Visa Account Updater (VAU).  VAU facilitates the exchange of updated card user account information between issuers and participating merchants. With this enhancement, the processing of the Daily Issuer Reject Record Detail will be automated. Consequently, any items rejected by Visa will be automatically flagged in the Way4 system, significantly reducing manual workload.

Second, we've incorporated an advanced encryption library into both VAU and MABU interfaces. With this enhancement, every stage of VAU and MABU batch file processing that handles card numbers in their clear form will now benefit from encryption and decryption capabilities. Particularly for VAU and MABU batch file processes, it guarantees very strong protection of sensitive data, providing an added layer of security for our clients.

The new enhancement is available to the users of VAU and MABU options of Way4 Issuing and Way4 Acquiring. They are not subject to separate licensing for existing users of the VAU and MABU.
