South Bend, Indiana--(Newsfile Corp. - February 4, 2025) - 1st Source Bank (NASDAQ: SRCE) is pleased to announce that it has joined the U.S. Faster Payments Council (FPC). This industry-led membership organization is helping to shape the future of the U.S. national payment system. It was created so Americans can safely and securely pay anyone, anywhere, at any time with near-immediate funds availability. Additionally, it focuses on the larger goals of safety, security and adoption of all faster payments.
This is not the first time that 1st Source Bank has stepped up as a leader in the instant payment space. 1st Source was one of the first banks to adopt the innovative FedNow Service at its launch in July 2023 with both send and receive capabilities for clients. FedNow, developed by the Federal Reserve, allows eligible depository institutions to provide instant payment services. Additionally, the Bank has been using the Real-time Payments (RTP®) platform from The Clearing House since March 2023. Now, with the addition of the FPC membership, 1st Source brings valuable insights to the table while putting themselves in a position to be on the cutting edge of faster payment technology information.
"1st Source Bank takes pride in our leadership role in the instant payment space, and we are excited about joining the Faster Payments Council," said Andrea Short, President & CEO of 1st Source Bank, and President of 1st Source Corporation. "Our dedication to innovation will be bolstered by the diverse perspectives of this group of organizations as we tackle the complex intricacies of faster payments in the United States."
