MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- (Business Wire)

Intuit (NASDAQ: INTU), the global financial technology platform that makes Intuit TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks, Mailchimp, and Intuit Enterprise Suite, today announced it has completed the Federal Reserve’s certification and readiness program for the FedNow® Service. This milestone marks Intuit’s readiness to expand instant payments, enabling businesses to get paid faster, access funds immediately, and manage cash flow with greater certainty.

By leveraging the FedNow Service, Intuit is able to partner with financial institutions to send instant payment transactions on behalf of its customers. This flexible participation model allows Intuit to help accelerate the adoption of a more modern U.S. payment infrastructure, providing businesses with the ability to manage their cash flow with greater speed and the financial confidence of instant settlement.

“Money movement should be instant, reliable, and work seamlessly whether you're a consumer paying a bill or a business paying an employee," said James Barrese, Senior Vice President of Fintech at Intuit. “By connecting to the FedNow network, we're building toward a world where money moves in real time across Intuit's entire ecosystem, between people, businesses, and the financial institutions that serve them. That's what happens when you bring payments, payroll, and banking together on one platform: customers don't just get their money faster, they gain more confidence in every financial decision.”

Accelerating How Businesses Get Paid, Pay, and Grow

Intuit’s FedNow certification enables the use of modern financial data standards to support seamless, real-time communication across the banking network. This capability will be integrated across the Intuit platform to solve critical cash flow challenges, including:

• Instantly Payable Invoices: Reducing the multi-day wait for ACH funds to settle, helping businesses get paid up to 4 times faster.
• Real-Time Payroll: Enabling payroll services right when the job is done, allowing employers to pay workers instantly via the FedNow Service.
• On-Demand Bill Pay: Using FedNow instant payment features to eliminate processing delays, helping businesses avoid late fees and manage vendor relationships more effectively.

“Intuit’s FedNow certification highlights how organizations are driving innovation across the payments ecosystem. By enabling instant payments, they’re helping businesses grow, efficiently manage operations, and better serve their customers. As more providers embed these capabilities into their platforms, we’re seeing continued progress toward a future of instant and transparent money movement for businesses of all sizes,” said Mark Gould, chief payments executive for Federal Reserve Financial Services.
