Real-Time Text Payments via Mobile, SMS, Alias, and QR Code
To simplify and accelerate digital commerce by delivering Real-Time Text Payment services using alias-based invoicing via SMS, email, and QR code—settled instantly with good funds through RTP®, FedNow®, and ISO 20022-compliant infrastructure.
TodayPayments.com is redefining how payments are requested and received through Real-Time Text Payments. By replacing traditional bank routing and account numbers with alias identifiers and delivering instant payment prompts via SMS, QR code, or email, we offer merchants a secure, mobile-first, ISO 20022-compliant solution for real-time good funds settlement using RTP® and FedNow®.
Alias-Based Real-Time Payment Requests That Convert in Seconds
Traditional bank transfers are slow, risky, and
tied to outdated methods like routing and account numbers. The next
evolution is here: Real-Time Text Payments—powered by
alias-based identifiers, Request for Payment (RfP™)
tools, and mobile-first delivery via SMS, email, or QR code.
With instant settlement over RTP® and
FedNow®, businesses can now send secure, alias-linked payment
requests and receive irrevocable good funds in real time,
improving cash flow, security, and customer convenience across
POS, ecommerce, MOTO, and recurring billing environments.
Real-Time Text Payments use alias identifiers—such as a mobile phone number, email address, or tokenized ID—instead of sensitive bank routing and account numbers. This enables merchants to send secure RfP™ links through text messages, emails, or scannable QR codes, directing payers to a hosted payment page.
Once opened, payers can complete the transaction instantly using RTP®, FedNow®, ACH, Cards, or BNPL, while the merchant receives irrevocable good funds within seconds—24/7/365.
Batching & Recurring Real-Time Payments Using ISO 20022
For enterprises managing high-volume invoicing or recurring subscriptions, TodayPayments.com supports batch uploading of RfP™ transactions using ISO 20022-compliant file formats:
- Upload files in Excel, XML, or JSON
- Send alias-based requests to customers instantly
- Automate A2A, B2B, and C2B payments across all U.S. financial institutions
With real-time visibility, remittance certainty, and compliance-grade metadata, merchants can eliminate payment delays, manual reconciliation, and costly processing errors.
