Payments Nerds

We’re proud to be payments nerds – we love sharing perspectives on all things payments. The Payments Nerds podcast features expert guests who explore the most important issues, topics and trends to consider in payments today. If you are a payments nerd too, or are a little bit curious about what’s going on the payments world, just download the “Payments Nerds” podcast from The Clearing House.

Lithia Motors, one of the largest automobile dealers in the United States and owner of the Driveway.com used-car marketplace, recently started to send real-time payments to sellers on Driveway.com to help remove friction from the payment – which was traditionally done via check, ACH, or sometimes cash. Now, with real-time payments over the RTP® network, sellers can receive payment for their vehicle even before it leaves the driveway.

The result is a smoother sales process that removes the uncertainty with slower forms of payments and gets funds to the seller immediately. Lithia and Driveway are working with US Bank to send the payments over the RTP network.

Listen to George Hines, Senior Vice President, Chief Innovation & Technology Officer at Lithia Motors and Driveway.com, and Mike Jorgensen, Head of Emerging Solutions & Strategy at US Bank, describe how used car sellers are receiving real-time payments for their auto sales.
