Mock Providers toggle, reorderable verification methods, and COPPA 2026 guide
Today's release adds two new Compliance Studio capabilities and a new developer guide for the COPPA 2026 Rule Amendments.
What's new
- Mock Providers / Real Providers toggle. Verification flows running in Test Mode now show a TEST MODE toolbar with a switch between Mock Providers (the default) and Real Providers. Mock Providers presents a built-in simulator that lets you submit personas (
Adult,Teen,Child, orPasses/Fails Age Check), enter a custom age range or date of birth, and simulateInconclusiveorFraudulentfailures. Submissions flow through the same server path as real providers, so webhooks, sessions, and DOM events behave identically. - Verification method ordering. Each enabled method on the Assurance and Verification tab now has a drag handle. Drag methods to change the order shown to users in the Family Connect widget, use Reset to default order to restore the k-ID default, and apply different orders per-market via Market Specific Rules.
- New Compliance Guides section. A new top-level docs section for compliance playbooks launches today with its first entry: 2026 COPPA Rule Amendments. The guide walks COPPA-subject operators through the configuration updates needed before the April 22, 2026 enforcement date.
