Real-Time Payments Put Spotlight on Small Businesses as New Year Begins

The Real-Time Payments World Map

The 70% of B2B transactions currently supported by real-time rails are dominated by large businesses, but that may change in 2024 as new partnerships in Mexico and the U.S. aim to offer real-time payments tailored to small banks and merchants. This edition of the “Real-Time Payments World Map,” a collaboration with The Clearing House, explains why global demand for real-time payments is fueling an emphasis on the historically underserved segment of small businesses.

Inside the January World Map
  • Real-time transactions are projected to encompass 28% of all electronic transactions globally by 2027.
  • The world is expected to log 511.7B real-time transactions by 2027.
  • Bahrain is forecast to have the highest volume of real-time payments consumer adoption per capita by 2027.
