U.S. Fintech Dwolla Teams Up Cross River Bank to Launch Real-Time Instant Payment Option

U.S.-based fintech Dwolla announced on Tuesday it has launched a new real-time instant payment option using the RTP Network. The company reported that the option will be powered by Cross River Bank and allows businesses to integrate with Dwolla’s payment API to connect with RTP-enabled financial institutions and send funds within seconds to a bank account. Existing clients can change a single line of code to initiate an RTP transaction using the Dwolla API.

While sharing more details about the option, Dwolla CEO, Brady Harris, stated:

“The immediacy of real-time payments will fundamentally change how businesses operate. As electronic payments continue to grow in adoption, RTP is the perfect complement to our ACH and Push-to-Debit offerings.”

Dwolla further revealed that by integrating its API, businesses have the flexibility to initiate transfers across multiple payment modalities (ACH, Push-to-Debit, RTP) to their vendors and customers for an ideal experience.

In partnership with Cross River, Dwolla has lowered the barrier for its clients to access the RTP® Network for instant* bank transfers that are available 24 hours a day, every day of the year.”
