DALLAS, May 4, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FinTech automation (“FTA”) today announced that it will be a provider of enabling financial technology for instant payment services on FedNowSm The service, which will be launched in phases starting in July 2023.
The FedNow service is a new instant payment infrastructure that will allow financial institutions of all sizes to provide secure and efficient instant payment services. Through the service, funds will be settled between participating financial institutions immediately, without the build-up of interbank liabilities or short-term credit risk.
David Park, Founder and CEO of FinTech Automation said: “One of our main goals has been to help banks, credit unions and ODFIs launch new embedded funding solutions. The ability to facilitate secure instant payments through the FedNow system will be a real game changer for these financial institutions. Using our platform, customers will have the ability to deploy this enabling technology quickly without having to touch lines of code.”
The FedNow platform will offer core clearing and settlement capabilities with credit transfers completed in seconds, making instant payments available 24x7x365. It also has 24/7 access to balance information, along with activity reports available on demand or at the end of the day. In addition, financial institutions will be able to settle their own main account or a correspondent’s main account and include configurable functions for each activated routing number (RTN), such as the ability to receive customer transfers, send and receive customer transfers, receive requests for payment, support transfers of financial institutions’ liquidity management and support settlement services for other financial institutions.
Financial institutions using the FedNow service will remain competitive, have the ability to create new financial products and meet the growing needs of customers. In turn, this will allow financial institutions’ corporate customers to gain better control over cash flow management, improve the efficiency of corporate payments and streamline their reconciliation processes.
The initial release of the FedNow service will provide basic functionality supporting a variety of features, including account-to-account (A2A) transfers and bill payment.
