Pay360 is an annual event that gives major payment industry players the time and space to come together and brainstorm solutions to the industry's advances, opportunities and challenges. We highly recommending signing up for free at the link provided in this blogpost to ensure you don’t miss out!
What Happens at PAY360?
Organised by the Emerging Payments Association (EPA), PAY360 represents the voice of over 1,000 senior representatives from a huge range of financial sections. These include but are not limited to banks, merchants, government sectors, investors, fintechs, financial institutions, card providers, consultants, and solutions providers.
This year's event will be digital and spread over four days (March 16th-19th), offering attendees the perfect blend of thought-provoking sessions, panel discussions, structured networking, and a series of fintech pitches.
Okay's Role
On a personal level, Pay360 is an important event for Okay. It is mostly dedicated to payment in the UK, a clear leader for fintechs and our direct customers. Taking place quite early in the year, it is also a good place to address payment challenges before the UK's September deadline for SCA regarding eCommerce hits.
As such, we here at Okay are proud to have been selected as one of the +90 Knowledge Partners. And as an active member of the EPA for the past two years, we are more than happy to support and participate in the event. For this year, you can find us co-hosting an SCA Masterclass on how to navigate the many challenges of SCA!
Outside of this, other conference sessions will cover topics such as:
- Regulation and Compliance
- Open Banking and the API led eco-system
- The future of merchant payments, payment infrastructure, and the impact on society
- The future of digital security, identity, and authentication
- Disruptive ideas & technologies
- Mastering the post PSD2 landscape
- Winning the digital transformation battle
- The power of partnerships
- Lending in the digital age
- Global Payments 2.0
Support Open Banking
In general, the PAY360 conference is a huge milestone for the finance and open banking industry. Not only does it push leaders together who may have otherwise never met to discuss, debate and predict the future of emerging payments, but it mixes influential industry stakeholders and PayTech start-ups with public questions, perspectives and concerns.
By registering and tuning in, you directly support the open baking and payment industry's future, while also gaining personal information-based advantages. Just like our Okay solution, we highly recommend supporting any platform that will help you and your business stay one step ahead of the game. We hope to see you there!
