SUMMARY:Building & Operating a TPS Program: The Six Pillars
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Becoming a Third Party Sender is a business decision. Opera
 ting as one is
  an operations problem — and most programs underestimate it until returns
 \, funding timelines\, or an ODFI audit force the issue.\\n\\nThis sessio
 n walks through the six operational pillars every TPS program has to stan
 d up and keep running. Each pillar is covered practically — what the capa
 bility actually needs to do\, where programs commonly get it wrong\, and 
 a short set of recommendations you can measure your own program against.\
 \n\\nThroughout\, the framework is grounded in real-world experience buil
 ding and scaling a Third Party Sender program from zero to more than $1.5
  billion in monthly ACH volume\, including the funding-model tradeoffs\, 
 risk-hold design\, and subledger decisions that are far cheaper to get ri
 ght up front than to retrofit.\\n\\nWho should attend: Third Party Sender
 s and prospective TPSs\, ODFI relationship and risk teams\, payments oper
 ations and compliance staff\, and vertical SaaS and platform companies em
 bedding ACH.\\n\\nAttendees will learn to:\\n• Identify the six operation
 al capabilities required to run a compliant\, scalable TPS program\\n• Ev
 aluate how funding model choices (good funds vs. accelerated funding) cha
 nge return exposure and the risk controls needed to offset it\\n• Apply p
 ractical controls — transaction and account-level limits\, automatic risk
  holds\, and the debit ? wait ? credit rule for refunds and payables\\n• 
 Build the internal reporting (return rates\, volume anomalies\, subledger
 \, audit logs\, screening history) needed to manage the program and to de
 fend it to an ODFI or examiner
