| `4.01.03.00`         | 4/21/2026    | - General bug fixes and code improvements.
  - Fixed an issue with card network switching for Cartes Bancaires cards on the WisePad 3 reader. Manually switching the card network during PIN entry with an inserted card no longer abandons the transaction. The reader now handles the network change and continues the payment flow.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
