Product Introduction

The widespread adoption of digital payments has spurred the development of diversified transaction scenarios including mobile money operations (MMOs) and QR code payments. This has complicated traditional clearing operations and raised requirements for transaction efficiency, security, and timeliness. Given outdated technical architectures in several jurisdictions, existing payment networks are no longer sufficient to meet evolving demands. Central banks urgently need to build a new-generation payment and settlement infrastructure.

MuRong EPSS (Electronic Payment Switch System) enables central banks to establish a next-generation national payment switching platform, define unified technical and business standards, support digital business enablement, and develop an electronic wallet service ecosystem. Its capabilities span transaction processing, clearing and settlement, dispute resolution, and risk management. It delivers omnichannel, multi-scenario transaction services for banks, PSPs, MMOs, and other participants, comprehensively enhancing customer experience.

MuRong EPSS adheres to international standards, supporting protocols including ISO 8583 and ISO 20022, and complies with PCI-DSS requirements. It provides robust security for transaction processing and data storage, mitigating fraud and data breach risks while ensuring full regulatory compliance.

China Financial Information Technology (CFIT), a subsidiary of the People’s Bank of China (PBOC), oversees the operation and maintenance of the central bank’s information systems, networks, and data centre.

To strengthen support for the central bank’s core operations, MuRong designed and delivered a tailored implementation solution for CFIT, successfully deploying a series of critical central bank systems including CIPS (Cross-Border Interbank Payment System), UCAM (National Unified Account Management System), and PIRS (National Payment Institution Regulatory System).

As of September 2025, CIPS had 176 direct participants and 1,552 indirect participants. By November 2023, its cumulative transaction volume had reached 411.9 trillion yuan.
NetsUnion Clearing Corporation (NUCC) is a state-owned enterprise wholly under the oversight of the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) and the world’s largest non-bank payment clearing institution. It operates the national unified clearing system and enables single-point connectivity between non-bank payment institutions and commercial banks.

The rapid growth of mobile payments and digital commerce drove a sharp expansion in electronic payment transaction volumes, placing significant strain on NUCC’s clearing system. In response, MuRong leveraged MuRong EPSS to upgrade NUCC’s core modules, including account management, transaction processing, clearing and reconciliation, risk management, and value-added services, seamlessly integrating banks, PSPs, MMOs, and other payment institutions into the platform.

In recent years, backed by MuRong’s technical support, transaction volumes on NUCC’s core clearing system have consistently set new records. By 2023, the system processed an annual online payment transaction value of 450 trillion yuan, with a daily transaction count exceeding 1.5 billion.
