This year’s summit brings together decision-makers from retail, banking, fintech, and payments to discuss how real-time payments, Pay by Bank, and A2A models are redefining payment infrastructure across Europe.
A key focus will be the HDE’s Pay by Bank initiative, which is accelerating the adoption of direct bank payments in German retail. 🛍️
Topics such as EPI/Wero, stablecoin and crypto-based payments, and Agentic Commerce will also feature, highlighting how innovation is reshaping checkout, authorisation, and cross-border transactions.
The event offers practical insights into pilot projects, regulatory timelines, and how businesses are preparing for the shift to instant, account-based payments.🤝
