SESSION DESCRIPTION
Credit cards revolutionized payments long ago, but they were never designed to meet the needs of online commerce. Now alternative options in the payments space are emerging, addressing the pain points of cards and offering consumers and merchants a safe and sustainable alternative. Alternative payment methods (APMs) offer unique benefits and solutions to the challenges traditional card payments present, including reduced costs for merchants and a more convenient experience for consumers.

This session explores:

What alternative payment methods are and why they’re growing in popularity
The trends at play driving the rise of online banking payments as a viable, feasible, and most secure APM for businesses and shoppers
Who are the innovative players providing seamless and ethical payment methods globally
