Faster Payments Service - Organisation of FPS

Organisation of FPS

APACS was responsible for the development and delivery of Faster Payments, but after May 2008 transferred day-to-day operations and management of the service to the CHAPS Clearing Company (a member-based organisation responsible for the CHAPS sterling high-value same-day payment system.) Towards the end of 2011 Faster Payments Scheme Limited (a member-based organisation) was set up to separate out the day to day operations and management of the service from CHAPS

The design of Faster Payments was a joint project between Immediate Payments Ltd. (IPL), APACS and the founder members, based on a commitment made to the OFT Payment Systems Task Force in 2005. IPL, a VocaLink company, supplies the central network for the service.
