International Treasury Services (ITS.gov)

ITS.gov enables federal agencies to issue foreign currency payments using the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network, Wire, SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication), Check, Western Union or Pay upon Proper Identification (PUPID) transactions.

FMS processes monthly recurring benefit payments, foreign payroll, vendor, and miscellaneous payments.
