What is Real-Time Credits

2. Finality of Transactions: Once a payment is made through RTP or FedNow, it is final and irrevocable. This means there is no risk of chargebacks or reversals, providing certainty to both the payer and the payee that the transaction is settled.
3. Enhanced Cash Flow: Real-time credits enable businesses and individuals to manage their cash flow more efficiently. Payees can access funds instantly, allowing for faster processing of payments, improved liquidity, and better financial planning.
4. 24/7 Availability: Both RTP and FedNow operate 24/7, 365 days a year, including weekends and holidays. This means that payments can be initiated and processed at any time, providing unparalleled flexibility and convenience.
5. Reduced Transaction Costs: Real-time payments can lead to cost savings for businesses by reducing the need for manual processes, such as reconciliation and handling of paper checks. Additionally, faster payment processing can help businesses avoid late fees and penalties.
6. Support for Various Use Cases: Real-time credits support a wide range of use cases, including person-to-person payments, bill payments, payroll, business-to-business transactions, and more. This versatility makes them suitable for various industries and applications.
Overall, real-time credits offered by RTP and FedNow represent a hallmark feature of modern payment systems, providing instant and irrevocable transfer of funds.
