The fastest-growing use case on the RTP network is real-time pay and earned wage access (EWA). To give you an idea of how fast it is growing, from Q1 to Q2 this year, Instant Payroll grew 104%! RTP, in particular, makes it possible for wages to be instantly sent to a worker’s bank account … so they can use it just like cash, on the same day to pay bills, buy groceries, or pay emergency expenses.

So what is driving this trend? And is “instant” the future for all payroll? To answer these, and other questions about EWA and instant pay, this episode pf Payments Nerds features Genie Walden, Chief Innovation & Marketing Officer at DailyPay, a leading provider of on-demand pay solutions, and Doug McKinley, Head of Treasury Management Innovation within PNC Bank's Corporate & Institutional Banking group.
