Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A browser extension that injects missing 'FBO' and 'FFC' fields into the Fidelity wire transfer web form
  2. A dedicated guide or template for Fidelity users on how to format the 'Recipient Name' field to include FBO/FFC data
  3. A feature request campaign to add standardized 'FBO' and 'FFC' input fields to major brokerage wire transfer portals
