KyckGlobal board member Donald Boeding said: “Real-time payments offer a $10trn opportunity in the United States.
“The vast majority of that opportunity lies in funds disbursements by businesses.
“KyckGlobal’s front end, supported by Visa’s reach and network infrastructure, will unlock real-time payments for countless industries.”
Using push payments, businesses can send money directly to the recipients, to a consumer or small business debit or prepaid card.
The growing demand for P2P payments has enabled the banks to make push payments available for businesses in the US.
Push payments do not require routing or account numbers and allow money transfer at a lower cost compared to traditional payment methods.
