Release v2.9.0

A major release — smarter verification workflows with two-way communication, a redesigned payment experience, wallet personalisation, and improved bulk uploads.


What's new

Two-way verification communication

Verification requests are now a conversation, not a one-way process. Organisations can request more information from students, and students can respond — all within the Wallet.

Highlights:

  • Request more info — organisations can send a verification back to the student with a message asking for additional details
  • In-app chat history — every message between the student and organisation is saved, creating a clear audit trail
  • Notifications — students receive an in-app notification and see an "Action Required" button when a response is needed
  • Cancel requests — students can cancel pending verification requests and get their verification token back; organisations can view all cancelled verifications with full history
  • Safe document deletion — if you try to delete a document with an active or approved verification, you'll see a clear warning explaining what will happen

Redesigned payment experience

Payments have been completely overhauled for a cleaner, more flexible experience.

Highlights:

  • Monthly or annual — toggle between monthly and annual billing on any subscription, with prices updating in real time
  • Multi-currency support — products now display prices in your currency, with AED (UAE Dirham) newly added
  • One-time purchases — products that aren't subscriptions are now handled cleanly as one-time payments; free one-time products don't require card details
  • See what you're getting — each plan now shows its included features in an expandable dropdown, so you know exactly what's included before you buy

Wallet personalisation

Make your Wallet your own with custom category icons and more visual product browsing.

Highlights:

  • Custom category icons — choose a picture from your device to personalise any document category from the preferences menu
  • Product images — plans and products now feature header images for a more visual browsing experience
  • Reorderable products — products can be sorted and reordered for easier browsing

Improved bulk document upload

The bulk document upload experience has been redesigned with a friendlier interface and more flexibility.

Highlights:

  • Updated interface — a cleaner, more intuitive upload experience
  • Student matching — match documents to students by student ID or email address
  • Verification option — choose whether bulk-uploaded documents should be sent for verification
  • Student ID in bulk upload — student IDs can now be included when bulk-uploading students

Updated free tier — Pearsana Explorer

The free tier has been renamed to Pearsana Explorer with an updated description and allowance:

  • 5 document uploads (updated from 7)
  • Portal access — explore universities and programmes
  • No card details required
  • No time limit

"Create your free wallet, upload documents, and explore universities in the Pearsana portal."


Improvements

  • Verification storage bar — a new storage indicator on the verifications screen shows how many verification tokens you have remaining
  • Longer product descriptions — product descriptions now support up to 500 characters for more detail
  • Consistent verification counts — verification requests sent and received now match correctly across all views
  • Registrar permissions — registrars can now enter student IDs as expected
