What a way to kick off @money2020 USA! 🚀 Yesterday, we welcomed over 100 industry leaders, partners and clients to our exclusive Executive Networking Drinks at The Venetian in Las Vegas. With the US #payments landscape evolving at pace, the energy in the room reflected the scale of opportunity ahead. The future of payments is moving fast, and we’re right at the heart of it. A big thank you to everyone who joined us. We’re looking forward to continuing the conversations throughout the week!

💳 Stablecoin settlement is moving into consumer credit @Bakkt (NYSE: BKKT) has selected Thredd to power a planned credit card-as-a-service program in the United States designed to settle in #stablecoins.

AI is changing the front end of commerce, and #stablecoins are changing the back end. Put the two together and you get what Ryan Dew, our Chief Product Officer, calls programmable #commerce, where payments start to move at the speed of computers. That was how Ryan opened yesterday's webinar, 'When the agent pays: Identity, trust and fraud in agent-initiated payments'. He then asked experts from Visa, #Zilch, and Velocity what is overhyped about agentic payments and what is genuinely new. Over the rest of the session, the panel covered how to govern what agents are allowed to do, which rails they should run on, who pays when something goes wrong, and how to spot suspicious activity.

🤖💳 What happens when the customer making a payment is an #AIagent? At the Payments Innovation Forum AI & #Agentic #Payments Forum, Nuruz Zaman took to the stage to explore how agentic commerce could reshape card issuance and what issuers need to prepare for now. A few weeks on, the conversation continues to gather pace. Watch a snippet from his keynote below. 👇

What's it actually costing you to stay on a legacy platform? For most institutions, the answer is 70-80% of the IT budget spent just keeping the current system running. That leaves less than 20% for anything new. Modernised institutions are on a different track. They report 2.5x higher revenue growth and get new products to market 50% faster. The gap between those two positions widens every year the migration doesn't happen. See how Thredd makes migrations invisible, get the full playbook → thredd.ai/resources/industry…

💡 Innovation in payments rarely happens in isolation. It happens when technology leaders come together to solve the industry’s biggest challenges and create new opportunities for issuers. That’s exactly what Thredd and Mastercard is doing. Our collaboration is bringing the next generation of issuer capabilities to market, giving fintechs, digital banks, #embeddedfinance providers and enterprises the infrastructure they need to innovate faster, scale globally and deliver exceptional customer experiences.

💳 What do companies need to look out for when expanding a card program? Most card programmes don’t fail internationally because the opportunity wasn’t there. They fail because the groundwork wasn’t. Patrick Faulkner-king, VP Commercial Development at Thredd, shares why successful global expansion depends on much more than launching into a new market.
