About a year after the FedNow service launched, financial institutions are focusing on delivering customer value through overlay services like Request for Payments (RfP) built on instant payment systems. This tool remains underutilized by many banks, with only 39% fully recognizing its high demand, resulting in missed opportunities. Meanwhile, fintechs are ahead of the game, offering streamlined invoicing and QR-based bill payments to attract business clients. It’s time for banks to catch up and harness the potential of RfP.

Is your bank ready to modernize its core systems? With core modernization, regional banks can scale faster, launch new products, and meet the demands of today's banking environment. Core modernization goes beyond upgrading technology. It’s about responding to shifting market needs, improving customer engagement, and achieving sustainable growth. There are four main approaches to core modernization, each offering unique benefits depending on a bank’s needs and risk tolerance: 1) Big Bang Modernization: A full, rapid technology overhaul. 2) Greenfield Modernization: Building a new platform alongside the existing one. 3) Sidecar Modernization: Running new functions in parallel with legacy systems. 4) Progressive Modernization: Gradual replacement of legacy components. Each approach has its strengths, and it’s up to each bank to determine which path best aligns with their strategy for growth. What do you see as the biggest challenge for your bank when modernizing core systems? Explore the different approaches and find out which best fits your institution’s strategy in today's OrboNation blog post!
