What You'll Learn
Wire transfers and card payments are two of the most widely used and most scrutinized payment types in banking. Each carries distinct processes, regulatory expectations, and risk profiles that staff must understand to operate with confidence.
This course breaks down the essentials of both payment types. For wires, participants will explore how transfers are initiated and settled, why they're preferred for high-value and time-sensitive transactions, and what security and compliance controls matter most. For cards, the course covers how credit, debit, and prepaid transactions move through the system, who the key parties are, and how to handle risks like fraud and chargebacks. Walk away with a clear, practical understanding of wire and card payment operations—and the knowledge to support compliance, reduce risk, and serve customers more effectively.
