The RTP® Network
About This Course
In this class with the Payments Professor, you’ll dive deep into the RTP® Network—the first instant payment system in the U.S., operated by The Clearing House. You'll learn how RTP® enables 24/7/365 credit push payments with real-time settlement, immediate funds availability, and rich ISO® 20022 messaging. The course covers how transactions flow through the network, the roles of senders and financial institutions, and how Request for Payment transforms bill pay and cash flow management. You’ll explore real-world use cases for consumers, businesses, and financial institutions, plus key implementation considerations like tech upgrades, risk controls, and compliance. Whether you're a bank, business, or just payment-curious, this course gives you the knowledge you need to navigate and leverage RTP®.
