“Whether it’s ⁤sending a co-pay reimbursement⁤ to a ⁣patient, returning a⁣ deposit ⁢to a customer, or disbursing funds to a technician in the field, businesses need ⁤modern payout⁣ solutions that are fast, secure, and frictionless,” said Chris Brunner, founder and CEO of⁣ Authvia.

“Our collaboration with Visa Direct reinforces our ⁢commitment to eliminating payment delays and delivering next-generation experiences through messaging.”
