Footnotes
- Please see FedNow Discount Program for specifics. Discounts will be listed under the 7001 service area on monthly billing statements. The maximum discount of the statement credit will not exceed the total fees paid by the customer in the prior 12 months. ↩︎
- To qualify for the above discount, the institution must participate in the following FRFS services: Full-service participant in the Exception Resolution Service, Subscribe to FedPayments® Insight Service, Premier subscription to FedDetect® Anomaly Notification Service OR API integration of a pre-transaction fraud mitigation service (e.g., network intelligence). All required FRFS services must remain active for at least six months. If the institution fails to maintain the required services for the full period, the statement credit may be reversed. ↩︎

- Institutions must opt in to receive the statement credit and are eligible to do so as soon as send is enabled. The statement credit is issued in two parts: 50% applied upon opt-in, 50% applied after the institution meets the volume qualification requirements. An institution must meet the volume requirements for six qualifying months within the calendar year or six months following opt-in, whichever is longer. Months do not need to be consecutive. If volume requirements are not met within the program period, the initial 50% credit applied at opt-in may be reversed. All volume requirements are based on completed pacs.008 customer credit transfer origination transactions. ↩︎
- Volume requirement: ≥100 transactions per month, or ≥50% increase in average monthly FedNow send volume for existing senders already at ≥100/month. ↩︎
- ≥2,500 transactions per month, or ≥50% increase in average monthly FedNow send volume for existing senders already at ≥2,500/month. ↩︎
