Cybersource is aware of an issue that is currently affecting some merchants using REST API. We are investigating the cause and working urgently to resolve the issue. Impact: Certain merchants may experience issues with REST API when submitting an IPv6 IP address in the "deviceInformation.ipAddress" field. Merchants may receive field validation errors resulting transaction failures. As a workaround, merchants can submit transactions using IPv4 addresses only or leaving the "deviceInformation.ipAddress" field blank until resolved. Reported Start Time: 13 March 2026 Next Update: Within 60 minutes. We regret any inconvenience this may cause for our customers. We will provide regular updates until the issue is mitigated. Please do not hesitate to contact the Cybersource support team if you have any questions or concerns. Cybersource Support Center Incident #: TBD
