Abstract:
The Federal Reserve Payments Study (FRPS) is supported by the following surveys: • Depository and Financial Institutions Payments Survey (FR 3066a), and • Networks, Processors, and Issuers Payments Surveys (FR 3066b). The FRPS collects information from organizations with a significant role in processing payments, including depository and financial institutions, general-purpose payment networks, third-party payment processors, issuers of private-label payment instruments, and providers of various alternative payment methods and systems and help to support the Federal Reserve System’s (Federal Reserve’s) role in the payments system. The FR 3066a and FR 3066b consist of a full set of surveys every three years and smaller versions of the surveys (fewer surveys, questions, or respondents) in each year between. The FRPS publishes aggregate estimates of noncash payment volumes, cash deposits and withdrawals, and related information derived from the surveys.
