As businesses transition to a fast, digital-first payment environment, relying on outdated ACH and wire transfers can slow down cash flow and increase transaction costs. Small and mid-sized businesses need a secure, instant, and efficient way to process transactions, receive payments, and send funds without delays.
With TodayPayments.com, merchants can apply for a Real-Time Payments (RTP®) merchant account and access instant transaction capabilities through both the RTP® network and The FedNow® Service. Our platform allows businesses to accept and process payments instantly across multiple banks and credit unions in all 50 states.
We also provide alias-based transaction processing, enabling businesses to use a cell phone number or email address as a payment alias instead of full financial data. This enhances security, streamlines payments, and simplifies financial reconciliation.

Streamline Payments with Advanced Request for Payment Options:
Harness the power of FedNow's Request for Payment system to transform how you manage invoices and remittances. Our platform supports diverse data integration options, allowing payees to incorporate detailed invoice data directly within the RfP message or link to a comprehensive Merchant Page.
Flexible Invoice Details with ISO 20022 Messaging:
Leverage the flexibility of ISO 20022 messaging standards in our RfP system. You can choose to display crucial payment details directly in the message with a concise 140-character description, or through a dynamic "Hyper-Link" leading to a detailed Merchant Page. This Merchant Page can be hosted either on your website or TodayPayments.com/HostedPaymentPage.html through our seamless integration solution.
Customizable Merchant Pages for Enhanced Customer Experience:
Create a Merchant Page that not only details all the MIDs you own but also presents these options attractively to your customers through the RfP. This customization ensures that whether your payer opts for Real-Time Payment, Same-Day ACH, or Card transactions, they can easily navigate and complete their payments through a simple click on the hyperlink provided on your Merchant Page.
Call us today and receive the .csv or .xml FedNow® or Request for Payment (RfP) file you need—all during your very first phone call! We guarantee that our comprehensive reports integrate flawlessly with your bank or credit union. As pioneers in recognizing the benefits of RequestForPayment.com, we have stayed years ahead of our competitors. Although we are not a bank, our role as an "Accounting System" within the Open Banking ecosystem enables us to work with billers to create effective RfP files that seamlessly upload to the biller's online banking platform. U.S. companies rely on our expertise to learn how to deliver the RfP message directly to their bank with precision.
Our advanced solution, Today Payments' ISO 20022 Payment Initiation (PAIN.013), demonstrates how to create a Real-Time Payments Request for Payment file that sends a clear message from the creditor (payee) to its bank. Most financial institutions support the import of messaging and batch files for both FedNow® and Real-Time Payments (RtP), ensuring smooth processing. Once the file is correctly uploaded, the creditor’s bank processes the payment through a secure "Payment Hub"—with The Clearing House serving as the RtP Hub—and relays the message to the debtor's (payer's) bank. This streamlined approach not only accelerates transaction processing but also enhances transparency and reliability for all parties involved.
