Ripple Officially Launches XRP-Based Payment Solution xRapid for Commercial Use

in Altcoins

At its Swell 2018 conference in San Francisco, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse officially announced that xRapid is now available for commercial use.

The product is designed to utilize XRP to allow financial institutions to send cross-border transactions in an instant, with significant cost savings compared to traditional ways of doing business. Ripple has also revealed which companies will utilize the technology first, including MercuryFX, Cuallix and Catalyst Corporate Federal Credit Union.

“xRapid eliminates the need for a pre-funded nostro account when executing a cross-border payment. It sources liquidity from XRP on exchanges around the world. As a result, cross-border transactions occur in minutes and at a lower cost compared to traditional methods, which take days and incur high foreign exchange fees.

Payment providers MercuryFX and Cuallix both participated in the pilot phase of xRapid earlier this year and saw immediate results in speed and cost savings. MercuryFX will deploy xRapid in the Europe to Mexico corridor.

Cuallix currently focuses on the key remittance corridor from the US to Mexico. Cuallix will use its financial services platforms Payllix and Cuallet to provide a better customer experience for individuals and families sending money home.

Lastly, Catalyst Corporate Federal Credit Union, a wholesale cooperative financial institution that serves more than 1,400 member and client credit unions throughout the United States, will use xRapid on behalf of their members to create a new cross-border payment service.”

Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen recently expanded on exactly how xRapid can be utilized by financial institutions.

You can check out the company’s plans for the future of xRapid here.
