London, 14 January 2020 – Confirmation of payments receipt (or other outcomes) becomes mandatory at the end of 2020, when all SWIFT member banks and other identified institutions will be required to provide confirmation of payment status once a payment has been credited to the end beneficiary’s account.

In November 2019, a free Basic Tracker interface was introduced to allow manual submission of confirmations, with the intention to ensure that financial institutions with low payments volume will be able to confirm payments.
