Fed expects to launch long-awaited Faster Payments System by 2023
> The Fed’s new payments system will compete with privately-held The Clearing House, which was launched by a consortium of large banks in 2017. It processed 41.2 million transactions valued at about US$18 billion in the second quarter.<p>For someone like me who only uses Zelle and Venmo, haven't needed others - I wonder if this will make a difference and also when exactly will this private vs Fed gateway make a difference. Would there be any fees? I know private exchange came first but if Fed solution is free or cheaper, would they need to maintain the alternative?
