Mercator Report—Payments Infrastructure Outlook

COVID-19 hit every corner of the world, forcing people to alter their everyday behavior. With limited day-to-day in-person interactions, the on-demand mentality of everyday consumers grew stronger. This way of thinking reached the world of payments, with apps such as Venmo and PayPal leading the charge. People began to expect immediacy when sending and receiving money.

Mercator Advisory Group researched this phenomenon further and worked with Alacriti on a survey of senior-level bankers—focusing on their latest approach to payments technology and real-time payments. In this webinar, speakers from Mercator and Alacriti discuss the report Payments Infrastructure Outlook and the following:

• How the pandemic affected payments modernization
• Where senior-level bankers stand on payments modernization technology
• How to utilize the cloud as a strategic tool
• Where revenue will come from real-time payments
• The roadmap for real-time ROI
