ASA improvements and managing accounts

ASA Currency Details

We added merchant_currency and merchant_amount fields to ASA and transaction event schema to capture local currency details of the transaction event.

  1. merchant_currency: ISO 4217 alpha 3 code for the currency of the transaction.
  2. merchant_amount: The amount that the merchant will receive, denominated in merchant_currency and in the smallest currency unit. Note the amount includes acquirer fee, similar to authorization_amount. It will be different from authorization_amount if the merchant is taking payment in a different currency.

Please see the ASA request schema for further information.
