<Update label="April 2026" tags={["Data Plus", "Categorisation"]} description="Enhancement">
  **Updated Categorisation: New Category Structure for New Clients**

  We have introduced an updated categorisation model for all new Yapily Data Plus clients. The new model replaces the previous flat category list with a structured three-tier hierarchy, providing greater granularity and consistency in transaction data.

  **What's changing?**

  * New clients will be onboarded to the updated category structure, organised as `tier1 - tier2 - tier3` (e.g. `credit - income - salary and wages`)
  * The updated categories cover both **Consumer** and **Business** accounts, with expanded coverage across credit and debit transaction types
  * The previous category list remains available as a legacy reference for existing clients

  **Impact**

  | Client type          | Impact                                                                      |
  | -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
  | **Existing clients** | No changes — your integration continues to use the existing category values |
  | **New clients**      | Will receive the updated category format in API responses                   |

  **iOS App-to-App Redirection Enhancement on Hosted Pages**

  Recent iOS updates have impacted the reliability of app-to-app redirection from hosted pages. To resolve this, we've added an intermediate screen to the hosted journey for **iOS mobile users.**

  This update helps maintain a smooth and consistent experience for users on iOS devices. The new screen will appear as shown below:
