About this session
The next era of payments will not be won simply by making transactions faster. It will be won by those who can make every payment interaction more trusted, more intelligent and more valuable - for consumers, merchants and financial institutions alike. From always-on payment rails and increasingly sophisticated fraud to AI-enabled customer journeys and the rise of agentic commerce, the transaction itself is becoming a strategic moment of truth. How can the ecosystem deliver frictionless experiences without weakening controls? Where can AI genuinely improve decisions, operations and merchant outcomes? And how can payments innovation create sustainable growth while extending confidence and access to more people?
