Decision

What the current evidence supports

Agent-assisted assessment · independently reviewed · 2026-10-21

Use instant euro payments in production where provider coverage and operational controls are confirmed.

Why
Large transaction volumes and practitioner rollout results support production use, with remaining corporate workflow and verification limitations.
Next
Validate provider-specific timing, liquidity, sanctions controls and VoP exception handling, including the September 2026 rulebook changes.

Constraints

Blockers

  • Corporate bulk-payment and ERP integration differences
  • VoP connectivity and directory configuration
  • Name-match exceptions and inconsistent customer workflows
  • Unproven magnitude of fraud reduction
  • Provider-specific round-the-clock liquidity and compliance controls
