JPMorgan Programmable Payments Goes Live for Corporate Treasury Clients

JPMorgan Chase has taken its Programmable Payments product live for corporate treasury clients, allowing finance teams to set conditional logic that automates fund movements based on real-time balance thresholds, incoming payment events, and time-based triggers.

The product, built on the bank's internal blockchain-derived Onyx infrastructure, lets treasury teams define rules like "when operating account exceeds $5M, sweep excess to money market fund" or "upon receipt of payment from Customer X, immediately release hold on their next shipment."

Twelve launch clients — spanning manufacturing, logistics, and technology — are now processing an aggregate $2.1 billion daily through programmable rules. JPMorgan reports that clients have reduced manual treasury operations by an average of 34% since activation.

"This is what real-time payments should enable but legacy systems never delivered," said Naveen Mallela, global head of Coin Systems at Onyx. "It is not just about moving money faster — it is about removing humans from routine decisions that should be algorithmic."

The launch puts pressure on competing treasury banks including Citi (which previewed a similar product at Sibos 2025) and Bank of America (which offers trigger-based sweeps through its CashPro platform but without the same programmability).
