Chip and PIN: It’s Impact on the Issuers and Cardholders in the US Card Market
Chip & PIN is prolific payment scheme in most of the world. The US continues to rely on traditional magnetic stripe technology. What does chip and PIN look like from a global perspective and what impact does it have today on the US and their (your) cardholders.
BRIAN ARZANI, The Results Group
From Cavemen to Craftsmen
Driving efficiencies in an organization is rooted in good communication. Different departments have different priorities, even though they are part of the same team. This creates conflict and confusion, which leads to lack of productivity and eroding profits. Invest this time to learn the tools you need to communicate within the most difficult situations.
ERIN MCCUNE, Glenbrook Partners
The Evolution of Alternative Payments
McCune’s session will provide an update on the fascinating world of alternative payments. How are new technologies and innovative financial institutions (as well as non-bank payment providers) changing the way consumers and businesses interact online, at the point of sale, and on-the-go via mobile phones? McCune will examine how the alternative payment world has evolved, citing both new entrants and veteran solutions. As a prelude, we will "set the stage" for alternative payments by discussing the context in which merchants evaluate payment options, balancing the opportunity for additional top line revenue while managing the operational and risk exposure of choosing, implementing and supporting new payment types.
KELLY MCDONALD, McDonald Marketing
