TORONTO, May 8, 2024 /CNW/ - The collaboration between Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) and the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) – Canada's largest real estate board – aims to help brokerages make fast, seamless and secure payments with RBCPayEdge − an innovative payment platform that simplifies and automates the accounts payable process, that may create significant time and cost savings for users.
TRREB members using RBCPayEdge can now transform a manually intensive and predominantly cheque-reliant payables process into a fully digital one by streamlining transactions and combining multiple funding sources from any Canadian bank account to expedite real estate commission payments. Members can also integrate RBCPayEdge with most accounting and enterprise resource planning software to pay invoices, easily reconcile payment information and payment workflows.
"Real estate professionals and brokerages are increasingly looking for ways to overcome the inefficiencies and limitations of traditional, cheque-based payment solutions that make it challenging to operate in a digitally-driven market. With enhanced capabilities like RBCPayEdge, users can unlock the power of a faster, more efficient and integrated payment solution that optimizes their cash flow and allows them to spend more time helping clients find their dream homes," says Lisa Lansdowne-Higgins, senior vice president, Business Transformation and Deposits, RBC.
