A new Mastercard data field programRegistrationId has been added to the Financial Transaction table to support chargeback ineligibility rule evaluation for RC 4853 Cardholder Disputes sub-categories. The field is sourced from the Mastercard clearing API.

This field identifies the program registration associated with a clearing transaction. The field displays both the program code and its description. Supported values include codes for person-to-person transfers, business disbursements, government and non-profit disbursements, merchant-presented QR transactions, and other Mastercard Send program types.

New input variables have been added to support updated chargeback ineligibility rule evaluation for RC 4808 Authorization sub-categories. The following computed values are used as decision inputs across the Required Authorization Not Obtained, Expired Chargeback Protection Period, Stand-in or X-Code Approval after Issuer Decline, CAT 3 Devices, and Transit First Ride Risk Framework Claims decision tables:

-   `transit_clearing_amount_sum` — the sum of local transaction amounts for matching transit clearing transactions, used to evaluate UK domestic contactless transit split-clearing ineligibility conditions.
-   `cpd_minus_declined_transit_auth_date_time` — the number of days between a declined transit authorization and the chargeback protection date \(CPD\), used to assess TFRR/FRIL eligibility windows.
-   `financial_local_txn_amt_minus_auth_local_txn_amt` — the difference between the financial and authorization local transaction amounts, used for RANO authorization amount difference conditions.

The following new Mastercard dispute sub-categories are available:

-   Installment Billing Dispute-Participating Countries \(RC 4850\)
-   Cardholder Dispute-Not Elsewhere Classified-United States Domestic \(RC 4854\)
