A New Era in Banking

At Citizens Federal Credit Union, we are committed to providing you with the best banking experience. That's why we are excited to introduce Real-Time Payments (RTP), a cutting-edge service that allows you to receive payments instantly and securely.

What are Real-Time Payments?

Real-Time Payments (RTP) is a revolutionary payment system designed to enable instant money transfers between accounts, 24/7! Unlike traditional payment methods, which can take days to process, RTP ensures that you receive funds in real-time. This means no more waiting for transactions to clear or worrying about bank holidays.

How RTP Benefits You

Instant Access to Funds: Whether it's your paycheck, a reimbursement, or money from a friend, RTP ensures that you have access to your money the moment it is sent.

Enhanced Security: RTP is built on a highly secure network, providing peace of mind that your transactions are safe and protected from fraud. 

Convenience: With RTP, you can receive payments at any time, day or night, including weekends and holidays! This flexibility makes managing your finances easier than ever.

Improved Cash Flow: For small business owners and individuals alike, having immediate access to funds can significantly improve cash flow, helping you manage expenses and investments more effectively.
