Filling in the operational gaps a Latam payments API needs to graduate from PSP to treasury platform.
Fintoc is in steady operational-buildout mode: monthly PDF statements, downloadable transfer receipts, programmable min/max amount rejection rules, a saved-recipients book, and CLABE lifecycle management for Mexico (a critical bit since CLABE quotas are scarce). The bigger checkout move — adding card payments alongside bank transfers in Chile, plus Apple Pay — landed just before this window and is now being polished.
SolidInvoice 3.1.3 patches payment settling and clears 12 Symfony advisories.
SolidInvoice, the self-hosted invoicing app, is in a patch cycle on 3.1. The 29 October trio brought custom invoice templates, invitation expiry and a fixed upgrade path with migrations at startup or as a Helm pre-upgrade job. 3.1.3 follows with fixes: invoices paid through the API or MCP are only marked paid once the payment settles, the revenue chart counts each month once, and a Symfony bump clears 12 security advisories.

The bigger checkout move — adding card payments alongside bank transfers in Chile, plus Apple Pay — landed just before this window and is now being polished.
The roadmap is widening from payment initiation toward full treasury infrastructure. Recipient management, statements, and CLABE garbage collection are all the kind of features customers ask for once they are actually running their corporate flows on the platform — Fintoc is responding to that pull rather than chasing a strategic pivot. Mexico-specific releases are landing more often, suggesting that market is ramping faster than Chile.
Expect Apple Pay to extend to Mexico next, deeper conciliation and reconciliation tooling for the Treasury cluster, and new endpoints around partial CLABE pools that ease quota pressure for high-volume Mexican customers.

After the large 3.0 release in June, work has moved to hardening: upgrade paths, packaging (Snap, static PHP builds) and correctness in payments and reporting. The mention of MCP payments shows AI-agent access is already wired into billing, though the entries don't detail it.
Expect more 3.1.x patches on packaging and payment edge cases; the entries don't signal what 3.2 will contain.
