In this Banking Exchange-hosted webinar, speakers Mark Majeske, SVP of Faster Payments at Alacriti, and Divyarani Raghupatruni, Senior Director of Product, Data and Orchestration, share a practical, field-tested framework for building a modern payments strategy. Drawing on real-world implementation experience, they explore how institutions are sequencing modernization across rails, where adoption is accelerating today, and how to think about stablecoins as a future planning input—without letting emerging technologies slow progress.
Topics include:
- A simple framework for choosing which rails to modernize first—and why
- Common roadblocks that keep “one-rail projects” from scaling
- What’s driving urgency in instant payments adoption in 2026
- How Zelle® and push-to-card fit into a broader modernization plan
- Where stablecoins may matter later—and how to plan without pausing execution
