Abstract

A computer-implemented system and method that includes receiving via a messaging hub a code and an identifier for a merchant from a first financial institution, determining, by the messaging hub, a second financial institution based at least partially on the code, sending the code and the merchant identifier to the second financial institution, and receiving from the second financial institution account information to be sent to the first financial institution. The system and method includes sending the account information to the first financial institution to allow the first financial institution to process the payment from an account held by a payor to an account held by the merchant.
