Shift4 acquired Bambora and Beanstream and is consolidating all platforms under the Shift4 brand. As part of this alignment, all API endpoints and web-based portal URLs that previously used Bambora or Beanstream domains are being moved to a Shift4-owned domain convention.
This is a branding and infrastructure change only. No functionality is being altered.
Must know:
- New endpoints are active from August 25, 2026, you can begin updating and testing immediately after that date.
- You must update your integration before December 31, 2026.
- Only the domain is changing, API functionality, credentials, and data are unaffected
What exactly is changing?
