What the smartest people in payments, commerce and AI are thinking. Live.

Everyone wants faster, smarter, more seamless payments. But beneath the innovation lies a complicated reality: 91% of companies juggle multiple payment platforms, 61% still pay suppliers by check, and more than one in four have experienced fraud in just six months.

The industry keeps adding innovation. Businesses are asking for less complexity.

Join PYMNTS and Taranjit Singh Lamba (TJ), Corporate Payments Technology at WEX, for a candid conversation about what it really takes to modernize payments without compromising trust.

The future of payments isn’t just about moving money faster. It’s about building the infrastructure businesses can trust to move it.

Banks have spent years modernizing payments one rail at a time. Each mandate got its own project, budget and integration. With ISO 20022, instant payments and longer operating windows landing at once, that approach may now be what’s holding banks back.

Join PYMNTS, Finastra, SRA Consulting and Atlantic Union Bank to debate whether a payment hub offers a better path, and whether the economics hold up.

Customers want instant payments. So do fraudsters. As real-time payments become the operating core for large enterprises and growing fintechs, businesses can no longer treat the payment and fraud prevention as separate jobs.

Plaid, Public.com and Avant join PYMNTS to discuss how the most successful companies deliver faster, simpler bank payments without increasing return risk, and how better insights help separate trusted customers from risky transactions before the money moves.
