In practice, companies that currently include Pix as a transaction option will also be able to use TED and transfers between accounts of the same financial institution.
According to Fábio Lins, CEO of original bankChannels tend to infinity, from supermarket to WhatsApp. Thus, it can be seen that stores attract customers with discounts by paying cash with Pix, since this method can be used outside of business hours, unlike TED.
This option also becomes more attractive because there are no costs in the process for individuals. According to Banco Original CEO, it is important to note that in the case of interbank transfers, TED and DOC should not be free due to the opening of banking services.
“Currently, I don’t see TED or DOC becoming free because of open banking, because they use an outdated technology platform and take longer to be effective in a customer’s account, unlike Pix, whose technology is more modern, allowing for high availability.”
