Improvements
Version 6.6.0 introduces payment settlement channel selection, giving users explicit control over how payments are routed, and completes the rebranding of the platform from LYNKS to FinologeeBKO.
Payment settlement channel selection
When creating a payment, users can now select a settlement channel — Normal, Instant, or Urgent — to control how the payment is routed to the bank. This replaces the previous NORMAL/URGENT toggle with three clearly defined options that reflect the actual processing rail: standard SEPA clearing, SEPA Instant, BACS, CHAPS, FPS, or other bank-specific channels depending on the initiating bank, currency, and payment category. The platform displays relevant context for each option, including indicative cost and speed, so users can make an informed choice.
On the back end, the selected channel determines the payment instruction fields sent to the bank, such as order type, service level, or local instrument codes. Channel configuration is bank-specific and maintained at the configuration level without requiring a release. Backwards compatibility is preserved, meaning existing payment flows continue to work without changes for tenants whose banks do not yet use the new channel selection logic.
Rebranding to FinologeeBKO
The platform formerly known as LYNKS is now named Finologee Banking Orchestrator, branded as FinologeeBKO. This update applies across the web application, mobile apps, authentication pages, domain names, and system-generated emails. The new application domain and email domain (@bko.finologee.com) are in place, with backward-compatible redirects maintained so that existing client configurations and whitelisted domains continue to function.
The mobile app is published under the FinologeeBKO name in the App Store, with updated logos and labels throughout. LYNKSDrive is renamed to FinologeeDRIVE. Tenants access the same features and workflows; the rebranding is limited to visual identity and naming.
