About ClearingPost

We cover 150 payment systems across 90 countries, including real-time gross settlement systems, automated clearing houses, instant payment rails, card schemes, and regulatory developments.
How We Work
Our content is produced by an editorial pipeline that identifies, sources, verifies, and publishes payment infrastructure developments. We trace every factual claim to primary or high-quality secondary sources. Articles are validated against deterministic quality gates before publication.
Some content classes — particularly breaking news and updates — are published with verified core facts first, with additional context added in subsequent revisions. Analysis, regulatory summaries, and system guides undergo full editorial validation before publication.
Human editorial oversight is applied to discovery, editorial policy decisions, and quality gate design. The pipeline operates within those boundaries.
Status Data
Operating status indicators on the pulse map and system pages are inferred from published operating hours, official operator announcements, and where available, operator status pages. This is not real-time monitoring from direct system connectivity. Status reflects the best available information from public sources, updated during each editorial cycle.
