Send us a Text Message. Real time payments. Coming at you right now. Are you ready?On the show is James Colassano, an SVP at The Clearing House, an institution owned by some of the world's largest banks (including Chase, BMO, CapitalOne, B of A, Santander and more). And The Clearing House very much wants credit unions to get involved with its RTP network because its goal is ubiquity.Already hundreds of credit unions, including Navy Federal, are on board.The 2024 fact is that consumers - and businesses - want money to move instantly. Institutions that don't possess that capability will fall behind.It's easy to get involved with RTP, by the way. Most core systems in use at credit unions already have the capability built in. Flick a switch, complete some paperwork, and an institution is active. The starting point in this journey: talk with your core provider. They likely will know your next steps.In this show Colassano talks about use cases for RTP and also about how to claw back a payment that was made in mistake.He also explains how RTP and FedNow are different but fundamentally on the same mission.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

Michael Barr is a busy man these days. As the Federal Reserve's vice-chair for supervision, he's looking at ways of making the financial system safer through the next-generation of US banking regulation, known as the Basel "endgame" proposal. In July, he also unveiled the central bank's new real-time payment settlement system for banks, called FedNow, after years of development. Of course, all of this is happening at an interesting time for banking. This year saw the collapse of three banks following deposit runs. There have been big losses on bond portfolios as interest rates rise, a cyberattack that briefly unsettled the US Treasury market, and there's still a lot of general uncertainty over the direction of the US economy. In this episode, which was recorded live onstage at The Clearing House annual conference in New York, we speak to Barr about how he's thinking about the payments space, big changes to bank regulation, and the macro outlook.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What are real-time payments? Coffee Break Session Host Jason Campbell catches up with Strategic Treasurer's Managing Partner, Craig Jeffery, to chat about real-time payments. They discuss how these payments work, the benefits, and the risks. Listen in and learn a little bit about real-time payments.
Call them what you will - Instant Payment Systems, Fast Payment Systems, Real Time Payments - or by their brands UPI, RTP® and more - these payment systems are experiencing success around the world. As the US stands weeks away from launching FedNow, we decided to take a closer look at the success of one of the hottest newcomers to the instant payments scene - Brazil's Pix. As it turns out, there is much to be learned from success. Launched in November 2020, in just 2 years Pix had processed R$13 Trillion. Remarkable as that statistic is, it is more impressive when you realize that within 7 months of its launch, Pix was processing more volume than credit documents (DOC), electronic transfers (TED), and bank slips combined. By February of 2022, Pix had overtaken debit and credit card transaction volumes. By December of 2022 Pix broke a record - processing more than 100 million transactions in 24 hours. If that is not enough, it looks to be accomplishing what many countries hope for with a new fast payment system - Pix has moved the needle on the financially underserved, shifting from 50% of the population being unbanked to 75% of the population using Pix. In this first episode of a 3-part series, Yvette Bohanan sits down with Cici Northup, Joanna Wisniecka, and Elizabeth McQuerry to discuss the “state of play” for fast payment systems and the key questions to ask about what the future holds for all of us as the world enters a phase of transformative modernization.
Welcome back to the Power of Payments podcast. I'm your host Ismail Umar, and today I'm joined by Jessica Cheney, VP of Product for the Digital Banking Solutions group at Bottomline Technologies. Jessica has been with Bottomline for over a decade. Prior to that, she held similar roles at a number of other fintechs, and was also part of the commercial product management group at US Bank. She has been involved with real-time payments for many years now, and says she has a comprehensive outlook on how payments impact financial services from a commercial, fintech, and retail perspective. In our conversation today, Jessica discusses the current state of adoption of real-time payments in the US, and how the launch of FedNow – the Federal Reserve's instant payment service – is going to impact the banking industry. She also talks about how SMBs can use real-time payments to improve their day-to-day operations, and the overall impact that RTP adoption will likely have on banks, businesses, and consumers in the coming years.

Today we dive into the past and what we discussed and predicted in 2022 as payment, fintech, and business trends. There were plenty of winners, some that won that we don't like, and some losers on the list of things we wish would have happened but did not. One popular subject on the podcast is Cannabis, and I can say that it is disappointing that Congress has not acted and passed the SAFE Banking ACT. This needs to get passed in 2023!!! CBD, HEMP, and Kratom continue to struggle with banking and merchant services - there are too many Government agencies on top of these industries. The list for 2022 included QR Codes made a huge comeback, and that continues; alternative payments didn't happen yet, but we are hopeful for 2023 on that one. Self Service Kiosks and Self-checks out are a pain and are going to cause a lot of strife for jobs for our young people, but it is a train that is not going to stop - and we saw Mcdonald's open a new restaurant with no human contact - Crypto had its ups and down in 2022 and ended in a crash and burn with FTX and SBF. - Let's see if in 2023 - if it can make a comeback! E-commerce continues to grow, grow and grow - the future is strong, and bringing alternative international payments to these merchants could make 2023 an exciting year. E-invoicing and Payment Portals were popular in 2021 and 2022 and will continue to grow in the B2B sector. ATM's going away - that did NOT happen, and the ATM industry is strong as ever and growing; cashless ATMs are in trouble, and Visa is threatening businesses with a $50K fine. Other exciting products are coming to the ATM market that will turn machines into Financial Kiosks. 2023 looks to be very exciting, with many developments in these areas. Real-Time Payments, Pay by Bank, Alternative Payments, Cryptocurrency, Omni Channel Solutions for the SMB Market, Business specific software market will continue to see rapid growth, Banks partnering with Fintech Companies, Passing the fee to the cardholder, Faster Approvals for merchant accounts - will that be a huge trend - we say YES. We see High-Risk Merchant services going thru some changes as companies merge, and there are fewer choices for these merchants. Government Regulation: We talk about Durbin, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Listen in, and let us know what you think might be the next big thing in payments and fintech for 2023!

RTP, the nation's newest payments rail, launched in November 2017 and is now celebrating its 5-year anniversary. RTP transaction volume continues to grow at an average of 10% each quarter, and dollar value also continues to grow at the same pace. There are over 280 banks and credit unions on the network, with more joining each week. And what is really interesting about the growth, is that it is coming from financial institutions of all sizes: more than 80% of RTP participants are from smaller FIs….under $10 billion in assets. Hear from Sarah Billings, who is senior vice president and group manager for PNC's Payment Product, Operations and Strategy group, and Rusiru Gunasena, who is Senior Vice President, RTP Product Management and Strategy here at TCH, as they discuss the surprises RTP delivered during the past 5 years, what to expect on the RTP network as we look forward, and how real-time payments are now poised for rapid growth here in the United States.
