FAQs

What is the Fedwire service?

Fedwire is a real‑time gross settlement system operated by the Federal Reserve Banks that provides clearing and settlement services for high-value interbank transactions. The Fedwire system allows financial institutions to quickly and securely transfer large sums of money between each other in real time.

Why is Fedwire moving to ISO 20022 message standards?

Adopting the Fedwire ISO 20022 message standard should help the market infrastructure meet the increasing customer demands for richer data, help customers more easily comply with evolving regulatory requirements, improve the Fedwire Funds Service’s interoperability with other payment systems in the interconnected, global economy, and help customers enhance their client services.

What is the cutover day to move Fedwire messages to the new ISO 20022 format?

Federal Reserve Banks will adopt the ISO 20022 message format for the Fedwire Funds Service in a single-day implementation strategy on March 10, 2025.

What are the testing deadlines for TPSPs like Finzly and for financial institutions?

Finzly's Fedwire solution was among the first to achieve Fed certification announced on April 11, 2024. The deadline for financial institutions to complete testing is December 31, 2024.

What is the difference between Fedwire and ACH?

Fedwire is a real-time settlement system for immediate, high-value transactions between banks, while ACH is a batch processing system used for lower-value payments like payroll and recurring transactions. Understanding the differences between Fedwire vs. ACH can help businesses choose the right payment method for their needs.
