In this product update blog, we’re highlighting significant enhancements, including the launch of royalty calculator integrations, new functionalities in our Invoice Payment API, and improved operational features like enhanced webhooks documentation. Additionally, we’re introducing greater flexibility with revamped widget modules and expanded event types, ensuring a seamless integration experience for developers.
This month, we’re excited to share some major updates that will simplify your workflows and ensure error-free payments, especially for musicians and rights holders.
One of the most critical updates is our new royalty calculator integrations. You can now directly import royalty data from leading royalty calculators, streamlining your payment processes and reducing the chance of errors. This integration is just the beginning as we continue to expand our support for more royalty systems.
We’ll also cover updates to our developer tools, including enhanced webhooks documentation, a more intuitive Invoice Payment API, and revamped widget modules. Plus, offer a sneak peek at upcoming capabilities that will further improve your experience with Trolley.
Let’s dive into the details of what these latest enhancements mean and how they can benefit your operations.

Optimize your developer experience
New developer blog
We’ve launched a dedicated developer blog to provide you with the technical guides and insights you need.

Enhanced webhooks documentation
Our updated Webhooks documentation now includes comprehensive details on integrating and verifying webhooks, along with IP whitelisting.
Trolley Trust and Tax webhook documentation has also been updated, and we’ve also added new samples of webhook bodies for various models and actions, making it easier to implement and troubleshoot.
Invoice payment API update
