FedWire
Overview
Fedwire is the US Federal Reserve's wire transfer service for high-value, same-day USD transfers between financial institutions. It supports both pulling funds into your VoPay account (fund) and pushing funds to a recipient (withdraw). Transactions are denominated in USD and are irrevocable once submitted. Fedwire operates during Federal Reserve business hours.

- Treasury and Cash Management — Move large balances between accounts to optimize liquidity across entities.
