The network said that on the same day it crossed the 1b payment milestone — Jan. 31 — it also reached new single-day records for payments volume (1,592,419 transactions) and value ($1.44b). The RTP milestone comes as businesses are turning to new solutions to get paid faster and avoid the headaches that come with late payments.
“Surpassing 1 billion payments is a testament to the transformative impact of the RTP network. We’re proud to play a pivotal role in helping financial institutions, businesses, and consumers embrace the speed, security, and transparency that real-time payments offer.”
