to manage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some companies have built their own expertise in-house, Gao added, turning to Plaid\u2019s ACH risk model Signal for greater insights, while other

It is a \u201cfully managed bank payments solution\u201d that evaluates each transaction in real time and returns an approval almost instantly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf Plaid approves it, we guarantee settlement. If a payment fails, we cover the loss and handle recovery,\u201d Gao wrote.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat means you can fund your customer\u2019s account instantly, credit repayments faster to allow further drawdowns, or deliver your product or service the moment a customer says yes.
