“The popularity and need for digital payments and online banking has never been greater with the global pandemic accelerating this shift in behaviour," he says. "This means that financial institutions and businesses of all sizes are looking for ways to rapidly develop their offerings. Visa Fintech Partner Connect enables them to do just that, combining Visa expertise with some of Europe’s most innovative fintechs to develop next generation digital solutions."
