Instant payments are no longer a future-state ambition; they’re quickly becoming a competitive necessity. If you’re trying to understand where the market is headed, what’s driving adoption and how your organization should respond, this webinar is one you can’t afford to miss.
A Data-Driven View of the Industry—From Those Enabling It
Our upcoming FREE Inside the 2025 US Instant Payments Adoption Study webinar, happening April 23, is based on the 2025 U.S. Instant Payments Adoption Quantitative Study, developed in collaboration between the U.S. Faster Payments Council and Federal Reserve Financial Services. What makes this study especially valuable is its perspective: it captures insights from core processors, bankers’ banks, corporate credit unions and Fintech providers that collectively serve more than 90% of U.S. financial institutions.
That means you’re not just getting theory, you’re getting a real-world, ecosystem-wide view of what’s actually happening in instant payments today and what’s coming next.
Understand What’s Really Driving Adoption
One of the biggest takeaways from the study is that adoption is no longer just about speed. The most successful use cases are those that are:
- Highly visible to end users
- Solving real-world problems
- Delivering value beyond faster payments
This webinar will break down the top-performing use cases, including:
- Earned wage access
- Loan disbursements (a major growth area in 2025)
- Wallet funding and gaming payouts
You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of where to focus your efforts to drive Return on Investment (ROI) and adoption within your organization.
Get Clarity on What’s Holding the Industry Back
This webinar will tackle the real challenges, and the study highlights key barriers such as:
- The need for more robust fraud detection tools
- Gaps in consumer and business user interfaces
- The complexity of implementing capabilities like Request-for-Payment (RFP)
Hearing how industry leaders are thinking about these challenges, and what’s being done to overcome them, can help you avoid costly missteps.
Learn What’s Coming Next (Through 2028 and Beyond)
If you’re planning your roadmap, this webinar is especially valuable. You’ll gain forward-looking insights into:
- Technology adoption trends (fraud tools, APIs, mobile wallets, QR codes)
- Expected timelines for institutions moving from “receive” to “send” capabilities
- The factors most likely to influence growth over the next several years
This is the kind of strategic insight that can help shape your investment decisions and competitive positioning.
