SoundBytes: Women Driving Payments Innovation Part Two: The Effect
3-28-2019

In part two of SoundBytes: Women Driving Payments Innovation, Interim CEO and podcast host Amy Zirkle explores a seemingly simple question: what does software innovation mean for merchants and consumers?
From SMBs to some of the biggest ecommerce giants in the world, the proliferation of payments platforms, value-added solutions powered by Independent Software Vendors (referred to in the series as ISVs) and mobile wallets have changed the equation for what payments products can do for merchants. They’ve also made financial services more inclusive and accessible.
On this episode, you’ll hear again from leaders at Stripe, Adyen, CardFlight and talech, plus new voices from Homebase and Ant Financial.
