Dwolla just brought Same Day ACH online for our customers and I'm super pleased with how it works. I wrote about this briefly in the past but looking at just how simple it is for people to build into their app just puts a big smile on my face. Existing customers sending money simply designate… Continue reading Same Day ACH in a API
There is an update that was put on Dwolla's website today called Focus. The post is about functionality that will no longer be supported in our products. Sunsetting features is nothing new for the company but this feels different. The company is different. The products we're building now are different. Where we're innovating is different.
