RTGS (Real-Time Gross Settlement)

Real-Time Fund Transfers for Business & Personal Needs

RTGS is an electronic payment system that enables real-time settlement of high value transactions between banks. Payments are processed individually and continuously throughout the day, ensuring that funds reach the beneficiary instantly. This system is highly secure, using Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for encryption and digital signatures, making it one of the safest ways to transfer large amounts.
