Business hours payments replaced by “always-on” real-time payment flows
London, UK. 15 November 2017: Modulr is today announcing an industry-first real-time inbound and outbound payments SLA that allows businesses to automate high volumes of complex payments any time, even out-of-hours and on weekends, through its API-driven payments platform.
Working alongside a major high street bank, Modulr has removed layers of legacy technology to tightly integrate with the Faster Payments scheme, bringing transaction times down to less than 90 seconds with unmatched reliability, including out-of-hours and on weekends.
Myles Stephenson, CEO of Modulr, commented: “We want to end the idea of business hours payments once and for all; they have no place in today’s digital business world. Businesses need automated, real-time, ultra-reliable payment flows 24/7 in order to meet rising customer expectations. Unlike currently available bank offerings, Modulr is developer-friendly and, most importantly, not affected by the all-too-frequent out-of-hours outages of legacy systems that are simply not designed to be ‘always-on’.”
Modulr provides a complete alternative for corporate payments, replacing decades-old manual processes and integrations with a simple API. Businesses can create and manage an unlimited number of payments accounts – instantly – and automate fund flows. Modulr’s clients can be up and running on the service within days, making it easy to build payments into the heart of their business with unprecedented control and simplicity.
Myles Stephenson continues: “Around-the-clock access to a rock-solid real-time payments infrastructure is key to building anything, from an alternative banking proposition to a lending company to an efficient Accounts Receivable/Accounts Payable or payroll process. We see this as the next step in the ‘consumerisation’ of financial services, where user experience – so often neglected in corporate services – takes centre stage.”
The service is available to new customers, for immediate sign-up, who can request access here.

We use an auto-login link to ensure optimum security for your members hub. Simply enter your professional work e-mail address into the input area and you’ll receive a link to directly access your account.
Instead of using passwords, we e-mail you a link to log in to the site. This allows us to automatically verify you and apply member benefits based on your e-mail domain name.

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association
Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.
For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.
The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.
Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.
Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.
For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
