Banks motivated to invest in payments modernization to compete for new business while reducing costs and maintaining compliance obligations

With the digitization of global commerce, merchants require their payment providers to support multiple payment methods and currencies, manage payments over all channels, and provide mobile-first experiences for consumer clients as well as their own needs. In turn, payment providers are investing in value-added services to differentiate from the competition, enter new markets and segments, and sustain profitability.

In Drivers of Change in Payments: Setting the Payments Modernization Agenda for Banks and Other Acquirers—a new Impact Report sponsored by BPC Banking Technologies—research and advisory firm Aite-Novarica Group highlights major trends in the global payments industry, with a forward-looking view on the evolution of payments and the drivers for investment in payments modernization.

“The space is now nonlinear and growing in many directions simultaneously,” said Ron van Wezel, Strategic Advisor at Aite-Novarica Group and author of the new report. “Companies supporting merchant payments should stay flexible and on top of trends in the industry, as well as watch for emerging competitors in the fintech space, software suppliers, and consultants in specific commerce verticals.”

A preview of the report is available online, and desk copies are available to qualified media. Please contact [email protected] or call Kaitlyn Labbe at +1.857.327.9442 for more information.
