Episode 59 – B2B Payments are Hot – Glenbrook’s Erin McCune
B2B payments are huge. Taken together, these supply chain payments exceed the gross domestic product. But supply chain payments remain an imperfect art. While consumers pay for one purchase at a time, a B2B payment may cover multiple invoices, each with different commercial terms. Given the amount of data about the payment that's necessary to crisply communicate between a buyer's accounts payable department and a seller's receivables group, it's no wonder paper checks are still in broad use.
Episode 58 – Consumers and Faster Payments – Consumers Union
The Faster Payments Task Force has brought together a broad constituency with the payments industry thoroughly represented. And thanks to participation by organizations like Consumers Union, the people who bring us Consumer Reports, the voice of the consumer has been well represented in determining important evaluation criteria.
Episode 57 – The Bumpy Road toward Merchant EMV Adoption – Heartland
Merchant adoption of EMV capability isn't a done deal in the U.S. Glenbrook's own estimates show that we're only halfway there. Few people have as much insight into merchant payment acceptance and the technology that enables it as Larry Godfrey of Global's Heartland Payments business.
Episode 56 – Consumer Healthcare Payments – BillingTree
Consumer billing payments get complicated in the healthcare space. Co-payments are bigger than ever as are the medical bills. Consumers need prompting to pay and even incentives to get those big bill onto a payment plan. With higher co-payments, smaller insurance payments, and so many patients having to deal with large medical bills, providers need services to take on the revenue management task.
Episode 55 – 3D Secure and the IoT – CardinalCommerce
The Internet of Things may be a hot topic but its security isn't hot at all. Up until recently, IoT device manufacturers and buyers haven't cared much about security, a disinterest that's led to over one hundred thousand surveillance cameras being hijacked by Mirai botnet malware. While cameras aren't making or accepting payments (yet) it's easy to imagine automobiles paying for tolls and fuel directly. If it's not my Roku box, maybe it's Alexa or Google Home that makes payments on my behalf over the IoT. The payments industry is working to get out in front of this potential trouble.
Episode 54 – Securing IoT Payments – Gemalto
The Internet of Things (IoT) will bring us a tsunami of network-enabled devices, for consumer use as well as yet to be imagined industrial and commercial applications. Many of these devices will be payment enabled, many using card payment rails. Securing those billions of IoT devices is going to require techniques deployed by the mobile industry, the card industry, and other sectors. Cryptographic hardware will be part of the solution.
