Planned system enhancement for Faster Payment System on 20 April 2025

The Faster Payment System (FPS) service will be unavailable from 1:00 am to 11:00 am on 20 April (Sunday) due to a planned system enhancement, being carried out by the Hong Kong Interbank Clearing Limited, the operator of the FPS. 

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority has requested banks and stored value facility (SVF) operators to provide advance and timely notifications to their customers.  Members of the public may contact individual banks or SVF operators for more details regarding the availability of the related FPS services that may be affected by the system enhancement.  If necessary, members of the public may make advance arrangements for their payment activities.
