Real-time Gross Settlement (RTGS)

Make and receive high-value, intra-day domestic payments

Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) payment is a means of making high-value intra-day payments between financial institutions in Australia. RTGS is also the system banks use for the domestic settlement of inward international funds transfers, using Swift messaging.

Cuscal’s status as an Exchange Settlement Account (ESA) holder with the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) enables us to provide our clients with access to RTGS processing.

We provide our clients with access to the RTGS system via a highly secure web-based service, using a secure extranet or Internet connection and two-factor authentication.

It’s your gateway to receiving all domestic high-value, and international payments (AUD only).
