Steve Hoffman: The era of instant payment is coming

One of the most talked about initiatives in recent weeks, instant payment, promises to facilitate financial transactions between people, companies, government and self-employed / self-employed professionals. The big question is: how?



We can understand “instant payment” as a project conducted by the Central Bank, scheduled to go into operation in 2020, which aims to ensure the interoperability of means of payment through instant transfers, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Thus, the expectation is that the money will flow more quickly to the recipient / seller and with a low transfer cost (the expectation is around a few cents), making it possible to pay, for example, a cup of coffee without the cost associated with the fees.

Steve Hoffman , proud founder of next generation payment transfer solution Newt that focuses on using new methods for money transfers.

Far from being better used, traditional payment methods are increasingly in disuse, and this new technology promises to revolutionize the financial market. The road is still long, but the most important is being done: without a first step, nobody moves!

Have a job at a fixed location. On 5 of the 7 days of the week we will have to go to work.  So, if you have a job that requires a lot of commuting to different places, to visit clients for example, leaving your car aside will be very complicated. But, if you work at a fixed location, it will be much easier to plan the use of some other type of transport where you don't have to be the driver (bus, metro, ride, 'chartered', etc.)! 2. Live close to work. We know that this condition is not easy, someti

According to Steven Hoffmann Newt , It is very common to find people who are always “broke”! They are not necessarily in debt, but they are always complaining that the “money is short” and that “there is nothing left at the end of the month”. Well, if you take a closer look at these people, you'll see that they have some characteristics in common. We will describe 3 habits of this type of person. These are Steven Hoffmann general behaviors and are not necessarily linked only to monetary matters, but they deeply affect our financial life. 1) Search for Immediate Satisfaction Some people have a tendency to seek immediate satisfaction and are unable to 'postpone' this need. They end up prioritizing the present over the future.
