Version 1.5.0: 08/04/2020

• Addition of Bud’s Payment Initiation API. The endpoints provide clients with the functionality to allow their customers to make payments from one of their bank accounts, to a chosen recipient. In their first iteration, customers are able to authorise a single payment from one of their UK based bank accounts to another UK bank account.
• Addition of a Category Totals endpoint. The endpoint allows clients to retrieve the total amount of money that is moving into and out of their customers' connected bank accounts, broken down by transaction category. The endpoint breaks the totals down by both tier 1 and tier 2 type categories (as is provided by Buds dual layered categorisation engine).
• Acceptance of a new transaction schema format for all 1st Party Enrichment Endpoints. All of Bud’s first party data enrichment endpoints (i.e. POST/v1/categorise/double-cat, POST/v1/regular-payments, POST/v1/merchants) are now able to accept the transaction format outputted by TrueLayer. This makes it even easier for those clients who are using TrueLayer as an aggregator to get the use of Bud’s enrichment services.
