Request Of Payments


What is Request Of Payments

Request Of Payments is an exciting new service brought about by the Faster Payments Initiative of the FedNow US Federal Reserve providing payments that are instant, final (irrevocable - "good funds") and secure.

Real-Time instant payments, are defined simply as: Irrevocably collected funds in a bank account and usable immediately by the owner of the account. Our "Good Funds" payment gateway allows for instant real-time digital payments that are immediate, irrevocable, intra-bank and/or interbank account-to-account (A2A) transfers that utilize a real-time messaging system connected to every transaction participant through all U.S.-based financial institutions. Funds are available for use by the receiver and real-time confirmation is provided to both you ("the sender") and receiver in seconds. Most Good Funds transactions are "Credit Push" versus "Debit Pull."

"Request of Payments" and "Recurring Request for Payments" essentially refer to the same concept: the ongoing process of requesting payments from customers or clients on a recurring basis. This can involve using invoicing methods and various payment systems such as ACH, RTP (Real-Time Payments), and FedNow. Let's break down how these components come together:

1.     Recurring Request for Payments: This refers to the practice of regularly requesting payments from customers or clients at scheduled intervals, often for subscription services, memberships, installment plans, or other recurring charges.

2.     Invoicing through ACH, RTP, and FedNow: Invoicing involves generating bills or invoices that detail the products sold or services rendered, along with the associated costs and payment terms. ACH, RTP, and FedNow are different payment systems that facilitate the transfer of funds:

·        ACH (Automated Clearing House): A payment network that allows for electronic transfers of funds between bank accounts. It's commonly used for recurring payments due to its reliability and low cost.

·        RTP (Real-Time Payments): A system that enables instant payment transactions between financial institutions and their customers. It's particularly useful for time-sensitive payments or situations where immediate funds availability is required.

·        FedNow: A real-time gross settlement service operated by the Federal Reserve in the United States, designed to support instant payments and enhance the speed and efficiency of the payment system.

3.     Integration with SecureQBPlugin: SecureQBPlugin, as mentioned earlier, is a plugin designed to enhance security and functionality within QuickBooks. It could potentially integrate with these payment systems to facilitate the invoicing and payment process securely and efficiently.

Combining these elements, businesses can set up recurring invoicing and payment requests using ACH, RTP, or FedNow through systems like QuickBooks with SecureQBPlugin. This allows for streamlined billing processes, improved cash flow management, and enhanced convenience for both businesses and their customers.
