The European payments landscape is on the verge of a major transformation. Advances in technology, shifting consumer behavior, and the rise of digital currencies are all playing a role in reshaping how we interact with money. Instant is prevailing around us in all aspects – instant payment, instant clearing and Instant economy.
Our soon to be published white paper on the Future of European Payments delves deep into these upcoming changes, providing a inside look at what to expect in the next decade. It highlights three key timeframes that will shape the future: immediate trends, near-future developments, and long-term mega trends. Current trends, such as mobile payment solutions and the growing importance of digital trust, require businesses and financial institutions to act now.
Over the next five years, the rise of biometric authentication and the push for real-time, seamless payment experiences will redefine how we make transactions. Looking further ahead, we can expect Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), decentralized finance (DeFi) to become major players, alongside with change in people’s trust equation.
