FAQs
Does FedNow® have any transaction limits?
Yes, FedNow® will launch with a credit transaction limit of $500,000.
Is FedNow® replacing RTP®?
FedNow® and RTP® are operated by two distinct entities and are not meant to replace on another, but rather, provide customers with more options to transact instantly.
How does settlement differ between FedNow® and RTP®?
While both payment rails settle funds instantly at accounts held at the Fed, FedNow® transactions settle in the debtor's and creditor's master account, while funds sent via RTP® settle between the debtor's and creditor's positions in a separate join account.
