2018 starts very well for the SEPA Instant Credit Transfer (SCT Inst) scheme, with the addition of the first French banking group into the list of registered payment service providers (PSPs). We now count over 1,000 of them (already proposing SCT Inst-based services or with a later readiness date), from twelve countries and representing twenty-five percent of all European PSPs. Not bad for a scheme launched just two months ago!
