What is Adapty?

Adapty lets one paywall flow personalise itself with the app's own user data

Adapty has finished moving customers onto one builder: the old Paywall and Onboarding Builders were deprecated on October 1 and Paywalls now live inside Flows & Paywalls. Since then it added a yearly plan sold as 12 monthly payments on native iOS, and the November 9 roundup brings custom tags, where the app passes a value through the SDK and any text in a flow can display it, alongside flow funnels and screen animations.

What is Moov?

Moov's issuing and invoicing APIs fill out as platforms take over more of the payments work.

Moov ships on a versioned API train, with v2026.10.00 still in development. Since September it has added self-serve fixes for ACH authorization errors, a taxable flag in the product catalog, a spending card activity endpoint, invoice reminders and custom invoice numbers, and issuing simulation endpoints for test mode. The summer added FedNow, payout fees and fee plan reassignment.

Adapty lets one paywall flow personalise itself with the app's own user data

◆ Current state

Adapty has finished moving customers onto one builder: the old Paywall and Onboarding Builders were deprecated on October 1 and Paywalls now live inside Flows & Paywalls. Since then it added a yearly plan sold as 12 monthly payments on native iOS, and the November 9 roundup brings custom tags, where the app passes a value through the SDK and any text in a flow can display it, alongside flow funnels and screen animations.

◆ Where it's heading

With the migration done, the work has moved to making each flow do more: personalised copy, funnel analytics on flows, and animation. Adapty is turning the paywall builder into a general onboarding and conversion surface, with agent-built flows from August and pricing experiments like the 12-payment yearly plan layered on top.

◆ Prediction

Expect more SDK-fed personalisation and per-screen analytics inside flows, and the 12-payment yearly plan to extend beyond native iOS; the entries give no timeline for either.

5.0

Moov's issuing and invoicing APIs fill out as platforms take over more of the payments work.

◆ Current state

Moov ships on a versioned API train, with v2026.10.00 still in development. Since September it has added self-serve fixes for ACH authorization errors, a taxable flag in the product catalog, a spending card activity endpoint, invoice reminders and custom invoice numbers, and issuing simulation endpoints for test mode. The summer added FedNow, payout fees and fee plan reassignment.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is self-service for platforms that embed payments: fixing ACH errors without support, running card issuing in test mode, sending invoice reminders automatically. Fee mechanics still matter, but recent releases have widened issuing and invoicing. The API usually gets each capability first, with the Dashboard following.

◆ Prediction

Expect v2026.10.00 to leave development with the ACH self-serve and isTaxable changes, and the Dashboard to pick up more issuing views. The entries give no date for that release.
