A recurring wire transfer is a payment set up to occur automatically on a regular schedule (e.g., weekly, monthly) to the same recipient organization, such as a vendor or service provider, often for fixed or variable amounts. The defining characteristic is that it ismade to the same organization each time, ensuring consistency in the recipient. The timing (Option A) and amount (Option C) may vary depending on the agreement, and the transfer is not required to use CHIPS (Option D), as wire transfers can be processed through other systems like Fedwire or SWIFT.
The web source from Tipalti states: “A recurring wire transfer is an automated payment to the same organization on a regular schedule, such as for rent or subscriptions, with amounts that may vary.” This directly supports Option B.
The IOFM APS Certification Program covers “Payments,” including wire transfers and recurring payment setups. The curriculum’s focus on “peer-tested best practices” aligns with the definition of recurring wire transfers as payments to a consistent recipient.
