Apr 1, 2025April 2025: Implemented cross-gateway customer name sanitization and Unicode normalization to improve data quality and payment processing reliability. Introduced clean_emoji_emoticons_and_accent to strip emojis, emoticons, and transliterate accented characters, applied to customer names in Mercado Pago and Orbital gateways to ensure only valid characters are processed. The work reduces character-related payment failures and ensures consistent customer data across critical gateways. Tracking commit 669881903317569024b96700aaa176fa4af6826e (Orbital: keep only A-Za-z characters) to enforce ASCII-only names where applicable and guide future normalization efforts.

Nov 1, 2024November 2024: Delivered critical payment gateway data integrity fixes in activemerchant/active_merchant. Implemented CommerceHub 3DS data mapping fix by correctly assigning three_ds_server_trans_id to serverTransactionId in additionalData3DS, with an updated add_three_d_secure signature and expanded test coverage. Implemented Ebanx header fix so processing_type propagates during API commits via option-passing and conditional headers. These changes improve end-to-end data accuracy, reduce reconciliation issues, and enhance troubleshooting visibility for gateway integrations. Commits referenced include bd6849c915499c0d3bc36cd9f2a2ffd1c9f8e433 (CommerceHub - Update three_ds_server_trans_id assignation to serverTransactionId field for 3ds_global) and c2894039f6a1616f3bd200cd1bff3ff189c4d92e (Ebanx: Fix processing_type header).
