What is Moov?
Moov keeps absorbing the payments plumbing its customers would otherwise build themselves.
Moov is shipping on a steady quarterly API cadence with monthly increments in between, and the recent run has been about rail coverage and merchant-facing control. FedNow support arrived through the instant-bank-credit method with automatic network selection between FedNow and RTP, Google Pay landed earlier for both acceptance and payouts, and surcharging went from launch to test-mode card coverage. The embedding surface has been widening too — resumable onboarding Drops, custom Dashboard roles, fee plan disclosure, user-defined amounts on payment links.
What is Zluri?
Zluri moves access duration from a request field to a rule the admin controls.
Zluri continues to build out its identity governance and SaaS management platform, with recent work concentrated on access requests, approvals, and certifications. It has extended approver actions into Slack and email, refreshed the Groups module, and reworked how certifications are created and scoped. The newest release turns access duration itself into policy: an automation rule can now impose a fixed lifetime on every request it governs, overriding whatever the requester asked for.

Moov

Moov keeps absorbing the payments plumbing its customers would otherwise build themselves.
◆ Current state
Moov is shipping on a steady quarterly API cadence with monthly increments in between, and the recent run has been about rail coverage and merchant-facing control. FedNow support arrived through the instant-bank-credit method with automatic network selection between FedNow and RTP, Google Pay landed earlier for both acceptance and payouts, and surcharging went from launch to test-mode card coverage. The embedding surface has been widening too — resumable onboarding Drops, custom Dashboard roles, fee plan disclosure, user-defined amounts on payment links.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is consistent: take a decision a platform customer would otherwise have to make and make it Moov's problem. Network selection, surcharge regulatory caps, tipping presets, account connection scoping all follow that shape. Versioning discipline is a visible part of the story, with in-development versions previewed and deprecations announced ahead of the stable cut, which matters for a product whose customers embed it rather than integrate once.
◆ Prediction
Expect the v2026.10.00 cycle to firm up around the in-development changes now surfacing in previews, with the same pattern of a preview period before the stable release rather than a single large cut.
Zluri
2.5FINANCE
Zluri moves access duration from a request field to a rule the admin controls.
◆ Current state
Zluri continues to build out its identity governance and SaaS management platform, with recent work concentrated on access requests, approvals, and certifications. It has extended approver actions into Slack and email, refreshed the Groups module, and reworked how certifications are created and scoped. The newest release turns access duration itself into policy: an automation rule can now impose a fixed lifetime on every request it governs, overriding whatever the requester asked for.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is maturing its IGA surface incrementally rather than pivoting, but the direction within that is consistent: each release moves a decision from an individual to a rule. Approver notes captured context that used to live in someone's head, user-based reviews let one scope replace app-by-app setup, and admin-enforced duration takes the last free-text field in the request flow and makes it configurable centrally. Existing rules keep following the requester's duration until changed, so adoption is opt-in.
◆ Prediction
Expect the same enforced-versus-requested pattern to reach the other request fields admins currently cannot constrain, and the duration banner and notification labelling to become the template for showing which parts of a request were organization-set.
