Trustly, a global enabler of Open Banking Payments, and Cross River Bank, a technology infrastructure provider that offers embedded financial solutions, are expanding their collaboration in instant payments with the addition of the FedNow Service.
The development delivers the anticipated expansion of “an instant payment network to Trustly’s merchants, enabling new capabilities to optimize the routing of funds instantly via Cross River’s singular API endpoint.”
Alexandre Gonthier, CEO of Trustly, Inc. said:
“With Cross River, we are thrilled to pioneer FedNow® transactions, marking yet another milestone in our journey to revolutionize account-to-account payments. With FedNow®, we continue to advance Open Banking Payments, giving consumers the freedom and option to use their bank accounts as the centers of commerce. We remain committed to driving innovation and shaping the future of Open Banking payments, and the addition of FedNow® adds to our rapidly-growing network of account-to-account capabilities.”
Trustly and Cross River have long served as key players in “the instant payment industry. As an early participant in the RTP network and top 3 RTP® originator,”
Cross River first collaborated with Trustly to “provide access to The Clearing House’s RTP network, where together, they are leading RTP adoption.”
The addition of FedNow® Service to Trustly’s offerings “underscores a vision for providing merchants and consumers the ultimate payment experience.”
With FedNow®, the companies are “offering enhanced bank coverage, advancing the accessibility and efficiency of instant payments.”
Trustly and Cross River have set the standard “for excellence in real-time payment processing, while continuing to carry this standard into the future on the FedNow rail.”
Gilles Gade, Founder and CEO of Cross River said:

Together, we have demonstrated that responsible innovation created a paradigm shift through our proprietary network interoperability and singular endpoint.”
