On 17 April 2025, the Pensions Dashboard Programme (PDP) announced that the first pensions dashboard provider has finalised its connection to the pensions dashboard ecosystem.

The connection is in line with the staged timetable set by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and the PDP notes that it follows the completion of three ‘volunteer participants’ connection journeys in March 2025, which paved the way for scheme and provider connections from April. More providers and schemes are registered and are currently in the pipeline for connection in April 2025, in line with guidance issued by DWP.
