Read Case Study
Real Time Payments are electronic payments that happen instantly by integrating with the New Payments Platform, which is Australia's fastest payment rails.
The fast nature of these payments mean that they can be made and received within 60 seconds. Instant settlement and confirmation results in immediate fund availability for the recipient, making this a convenient payment method for transactions with consumers and other businesses.
Real Time Payments over the NPP make it possible to make and receive payments. With Zai's API-driven solution payment, reconciliation and other processes are actioned in real-time to eliminate manual handling, saving businesses time and overheads.
For payins to your business, customers send payments to your registered PayID. For payouts, payments are made to your customers' NPP-enabled bank account. These are bank accounts with financial institutions that have rolled out NPP to support faster payments to and from their customers’ accounts. If a bank account is not NPP-reachable, the payment is automatically sent using the traditional Direct Credit.
The Zai API will also trigger a notification to your business with the status of the payment.
With Real Time Payments receive funds in real-time at any time, every day of the year.
These fast transactions can help provide a seamless customer experience as funds move swiftly between several parties. By leveraging technology entire processes can be automated to make handling cash and other associated business processes less manual, and by default faster and less error prone while also resulting in improved cash flow.
Real-time payouts with Zai are uncapped means you can send large sums in seconds.
Real-time pay ins depend on your default bank limits, and can be upped by contacting your bank.
