Attributes of Send Instant Payment for your business using instant payments

To send a "Request for Payment" (RfP) and a mobile real-time FedNow instant payment, here's a detailed guide. FedNow is a service provided by the Federal Reserve to enable real-time payments in the United States.

Step 1: Understand FedNow and RfP

  1. FedNow: A real-time payment service by the Federal Reserve that allows financial institutions to facilitate instant payments for their customers.
  2. Request for Payment (RfP): A structured message requesting payment from a payer to a payee, typically including details such as the amount, due date, and payment instructions.

Step 2: Ensure Compliance and Integration

Ensure that your financial institution supports FedNow and has the necessary integration in place to handle RfPs and instant payments.

Step 3: Create the RfP Message

Prepare the Request for Payment message. It typically includes:

  • Payee details (name, account information)
  • Payer details (name, account information)
  • Amount due
  • Due date
  • Payment instructions
  • Additional reference information (invoice number, etc.)

Sample RfP Message Structure

json code

{

  "requestForPayment": {

    "payee": {

      "name": "John Doe",

      "account": {

        "bankId": "12345678",

        "accountNumber": "9876543210"

      }

    },

    "payer": {

      "name": "Jane Smith",

      "account": {

        "bankId": "87654321",

        "accountNumber": "0123456789"

      }

    },

    "amount": "100.00",

    "currency": "USD",

    "dueDate": "2024-07-01",

    "paymentInstructions": "Please pay using FedNow instant payment service.",

    "referenceInformation": "Invoice #12345"

  }

}

Step 4: Send the RfP

The RfP can be sent through various channels supported by your financial institution (e.g., online banking platform, mobile app, API integration).

Step 5: Process the FedNow Instant Payment

Once the payer receives the RfP, they can initiate a FedNow instant payment using their bank's services. Here's an example flow:

  1. Payer receives the RfP and reviews the payment request.
  2. Payer initiates the payment through their bank's mobile app or online banking portal.
  3. Payment is processed instantly by FedNow, transferring the funds from the payer's account to the payee's account in real-time.

Mobile App Implementation (Example)

For a mobile app, ensure your app is integrated with your financial institution's API to support sending and receiving RfPs and processing FedNow payments.
