JP Morgan, Mastercard Launch Pay-By-Bank Solution In The US; Verizon To Pilot Program In The Coming Months

JP Morgan Chase & Co. JPM said its Pay-by-bank solution, which leverages Mastercard Incorporated's MA open banking technology, is now available in the U.S. for billers for a variety of recurring payments, including rent, utilities, healthcare and more.

Verizon Communications Inc. VZ plans to pilot the program in the coming months.

Pay-by-bank is a payment option that gives merchants the ability to allow their customers to conveniently pay directly from their bank account using traditional ACH banking rails.
