Payments Unbound Volume 4 Payment Rails: A Visual Timeline
J.P. Morgan Payments
Tracking the evolution of payment rails
5 minute read
The world of payments is changing faster than ever
Visual timeline
Payment rails are the underlying networks and infrastructure that enable funds to get from A to B without the transfer of physical money. They ensure that when a payment is initiated by one person or institution, it is received by the intended beneficiary. From wire transfers and cards to online transactions and real-time settlement, payment rails have experienced a dramatic evolution.
