So now you are able to use your very own webcam as a credit card reader. I'm not sure that holding your card in front of your webcam is going to be that much easier than typing in around 20 characters: the number of people who have enough problems getting themselves "in shot" properly would lead me to think that this isn't going to be al...

I am a big fan of Amazon. I think it is a brilliant example of making consumers’ lives easier and adding value, especially with their system of recommendations. I’m sure as a business tool it works really well for Amazon – increasing the average ‘basket’ value. But there’s a problem. My wife also shops from my account sometimes, or we buy things f...

Having no reason for the bank of Sziget to establish a branch office to the festival, because the organizers let only to pay with those contactless payment card which given next to the entrance band. This also means that cash nowhere will be accepted in the territory of the festival. As I know the implemented system graduated well in Volt festival...

Just when you thought payments couldn't stir up a bit of intrigue, the payments space gives us a juicy bit of M&A love triangle drama worthy of the cheesiest, Susan Lucci-top billing, daytime soap opera (those in the US know what I'm talking about). The talk of this year's EBADay was "Who's going buy Fundtech?" A week or so later, we ...

Deadlines for paper or otherwise unstructured invoices (e-mail) to the public sector have been issued in many countries - and more are on their way. The reasons for this are obvious: 1. save tax payers money 2. move increasingly scarce human resources from administration to services and other productive tasks 3. kick-start e-invoicing in the econom...

As we have seen, contactless payments are beginning to move into the mainstream. As my colleague Mark Carpenter has previously noted in a blog, support for contactless transactions is moving out from the metropolis, even to the rarefied environs of his country retreat.

I've been thinking a lot recently about the different pressures that banks in Europe are facing. It's a tricky business working in payments in a bank today - trying to decide on strategy and how the bank should move forward. Every bank exec I have spoken to recently is having to balance many different challenges and work out which ones they should...

The jury's out – well, not even selected - on this latest one but, at 1:1, the verdicts on the two previous lawsuits around EFT and ACH frauds in the USA are matched evenly between corporates and banks. It seems fair to find in favor of corporates where banks haven't complied with FFIEC and other well-established security guidelines. Issued over fi...

So which topic will steal the show at SIBOS this year.. Post Crisis wheres the growth? final words on SEPA? e-Invoicing? Basel III? Mobile Payments? Security Infrastructures? Renminbi? My take is post crisis wheres the growth should be the mantra and other topics are value adds with specifics. Are banks expecting more M&As post crisis, restruct...
