Scorecard Summary Bank transfer’s governance is commonly mixed between private and public entities. Other factors like active decision-making forums and central bank involvement provide bank transfers with a higher governance score in comparison to other payment methods. Global acceptance and usage of bank transfers as C2B payments vary; where they are more popular, they are usually in the online environment rather than in-store. While bank transfers are reliable regarding recurring payments, the overall user experience, including factors like authorization and cross-border capabilities, is lacking in comparison to other methods. The security of bank transfers is dependent on the provider; usually, they are inclusive of frameworks for error resolution and approvals, but consumers are not always guaranteed their money back in situations of authorized fraud.
