Episode 63 – Payments Come to the Browser – W3C’s Ian Jacobs

Episode 61 – Payments Systems in the US – Third Edition – Glenbrook’s Russ Jones
We all know that the evolution of payments systems in the U.S. is accelerating.

Episode 60 – Where and Why Interchange Optimization Works – CardConnect
Interchange is fundamental to open loop card system economics and a mystery to many, especially to merchants who must pay it but don't perceive any benefit from it. It's a non-optional component of what the merchant pays to accept cards. It's one element of the merchant discount fee. Despite the stubborn fact of it, there are ways for some merchants to make sure they pay as low a rate as possible.
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.
