For our international customers, we will support billing in the following local currencies: GBP and JPY. When new accounts are created on www.twilio.com by customers from UK and Japan, based on the phone number provided for user verification, the country code of that phone number will be utilized to assign a local billing currency as opposed to US Dollar. This will allow you to see your Twilio usage in your local currency and also make payments in your local currency.

To protect you against account compromise, we integrated with GitHub Token Scanning to send you an email security alert if we detect that your Account SID and Auth Token have been committed to a public repository on GitHub. With fraudsters and hackers scanning the internet for API keys, it is important to store your Twilio credentials securely and mitigate unauthorized access to your account.

To learn more about this feature, please check out the blog post.

The new Call Recording Studio widget allows you to toggle the recording of voice calls handled by Studio. The widget exposes all of the functionality of Programmable Voice's call recording, including recording channel management, status callbacks, and trim control via our drag-and-drop interface.

To learn more, visit the documentation on the Call Recording widget, or try it out in Studio.

Twilio Interconnect has been expanded with a new Interconnect Exchange Installation in Frankfurt, Germany.

The new exchange provides customers with connectivity via cross connect, VPN, Bring-Your-Own-MPLS, and the Equinix Cloud Exchange with initial product support for Elastic SIP Trunking, SIP Interface and Voice WebRTC.

Twilio now has two Interconnect Exchanges in Europe, one in Frankfurt and one in London. This allows European customers to set up redundant interconnects from their networks to Twilio adding an additional layer or resiliency while benefiting from the security and consistency of a dedicated interconnect.
