  7. Is there a cost for the FedTransaction Analyzer® tool?

    There is not an explicit fee for the service itself, but it does require a FedLine Advantage Plus or a FedLine Advantage Premier access solution.

    The Federal Reserve Banks now provide a minimum of seven years of Fedwire Funds historical data. The full range of the user's Fedwire Funds historical data is available upon first use of the tool. The amount of data that can be returned per request is limited by the number of wire transactions and number of accounts owned by the institution.

  10. I don’t see all the transactions associated with my bank. Who should I call?

    Please call the Customer Contact Center or contact your account executive.
