Comparing RTP, FedNow and Push-to-Card

Comparing RTP, FedNow and Push-to-Card

August 30, 2023By Drew Edwards

Instant payments have become the de facto expectation for consumers and businesses alike. Brands that cannot deliver on the promise of real-time, safe-to-spend funds will quickly find themselves losing ground to the competition.  Companies in the United States seeking this new standard have a growing number of payment options to choose from, including Same-Day ACH, push-to-card, the RTP® Network, and – now – FedNow. It can be confusing to know which is best suited to…

Updating Internal Controls to Mitigate the Risk of Disbursements Fraud

July 25, 2023By Dennis Mullin

Payments fraud is as old as the first payment. From stagecoach robberies in the 1800s to the near doubling of reports in check fraud over the last year, thieves will always creatively test the integrity of payment systems. The advent of digital disbursements and real-time funding have only upped the stakes in the fight against fraudsters because funds cannot easily be clawed back, shifting more of the liability to the senders of funds rather than…

Ingo: Partners for the Long Game

May 10, 2023By Drew Edwards

If last year was witness to a Crypto Winter, then it certainly seems as if the leaves are beginning to turn on the tech industry more broadly.

In the long view, this will likely be seen as a necessary winnowing that removed much of the froth and instability from the market with the stronger companies and…

Employee Spotlight: Lydia Inboden

February 1, 2023By Lydia Inboden

In my case, a better title for this column would be “Why I Rejoined Ingo Money.” I originally began working at Ingo Money in 2016 and left roughly five years ago to pursue other opportunities. I have now been back for a couple of months and am so happy to be amongst old friends and colleagues. From push payments to card issuance to banking-as-a-service and even crypto, I’ve helped shape and scale a number of…

Payments Orchestration in the Era of Money Mobility

October 20, 2022By Lisa McFarland

Though it usually receives little attention, payments orchestration is a long-standing and vital concept in payments. It involves the management and coordination of all the disparate parts of a payment from start to finish across external vendors, internal systems and financial institutions. Traditionally, this term refers to merchant acquisition or an inbound consumer payment and covers payment authorization, transaction routing and settlement. But the rise of Money Mobility and an ever-evolving digital fraud landscape has…

Why I Joined Ingo Money: Alex Cooper

March 8, 2022By Alex Cooper

In a word, the answer to why I decided to join Ingo Money is "Simple." I find Ingo's approach to payments very refreshing. They strive to make something very complicated simple. Payments are complicated; I am not trying to tell you otherwise. Get it right, and nobody gives you a pat on the back. Get it wrong, and you are dealing with fraudsters, upset customers asking where their money is, or even worse, regulators and…
