In 2026 or early 2027, #canada should launch Real-Time Rail (#rtr)

That's basically a new modernised payment system that I hope will:

- Cut out middlemen like #visa and #mastercard
- Replace the outdated #interac

RTR should be faster and work online.

Can't wait for it!

Digital Euro, the hidden battle over European payments.

The digital euro was created to not depend on Visa and Mastercard, but it’s getting bogged down in Brussels. Political divisions and the interests of banks are weighing in.

Så, när kommer Wero till Sverige?
Jag har två Visa/Mastercard-kort. Det ena som backup som jag tänkt säga upp länge, för jag använder det inte - detta är kanske tecknet.

#interac is canadian and low-fee

But compared to #visa and #mastercard

It provides absolutely no real benefits for everyday people and banks.

Except for e-transfers, only the merchants care about Interac for the lower fee.

The way I see it, unless Interac significantly improves in #canada,

Visa and MasterCard will remain superior because of their versatility, acceptance and actual benefits like cashback, insurance, etc.

In other words, Interac sucks. Why would anybody use it?

RE: https://fraxoweb.social/@frank/116313116551662695

When you use a Visa Debit card:

It uses #interac when you make physical purchases in #canada Most Canadian merchants accept Interac

But it uses #visa (or #mastercard) when you shop online, internationally or through an app

As of now, Interac doesn't work outside Canada and online/apps

Another thing to consider is the cut paid by the merchants

Interac takes a very small cut, pennies. So the money stays in Canada

Visa takes a much bigger cut. That money is split between your bank and Visa
