API changelog
Dated changes to the Vezmo API, webhooks and browser SDKs, newest first, with deprecated routes and how changes reach you, from API key expiry reminders and plan limits to the V2 webhook signature, the Agreements API and the payment link permission change.
How changes reach you
- One version. Every call goes to
https://api.vezmo.com/api/v1, with no version header. Changes are made to that version. - New fields and events can appear at any time. Ignore fields you don't know, in answers and in webhook events. A new event shows in the event list of Developers › Webhooks: tick it on your endpoint to receive it.
- Renamed routes. So far, a route that got a new name has kept working under its old one, marked deprecated in the API reference. See Deprecated.
- This page lists the changes, newest first, by the day they reached the API. The WooCommerce plugin keeps its own changelog on GitHub: vezmoPay-wooCommerce.
Deprecated
| Route | Use instead | Since |
|---|---|---|

November 2026
- 9 Nov. API keys: we email reminders 30 and 7 days before a key's expiry date, and Change expiry can remove the date. A new key has no expiry unless you pick one. See The expiry date.
- 6 Nov.
payment.refunded: a refund that goes through after a failed one has its own eventid, so it is no longer skipped as a repeat. - 2 Nov. Plan limits: your plan's API requests a minute, all your keys together, in watch mode. When a limit is
enforced, a request past it answers
PLAN_LIMIT(429withRetry-Afterfor API requests,403for the others). See Rate limits.
