In April, we had the pleasure of speaking with Teylor AG CEO & Founder Patrick, who participated in a panel at #FIBE24 on "A Global Perspective on Business Banking" at our wonderful Festival Stage. He engaged with numerous attendees and left our festival grounds with a positive outlook on the #fintech trajectory.🚀 This is exactly what we hoped for, and it sets the stage for an exciting #FIBE25!🎉

We are starting to announce our amazing #FIBE25 partners as of NOW, starting with Visa! Visa is a global leader in payment technology, driving the transformation of digital payments. As an innovator, Visa provides cutting-edge technology and infrastructure that empower partners to offer seamless, secure, and convenient payment solutions to consumers, businesses and government entities. Its open network connects almost 15,000 financial institutions and more than 130M merchant locations with 4.5B cardholders across 200+ countries and territories. 🌐💼   How is Visa driving digital transformation and enabling secure and convenient transactions? ▪️ #Tokenization: One example of innovation Visa pioneered, is the tokenization of digital payments. Best known from mobile payments, this technology now also powers the new checkout solution Click to Pay, making online card payments safer and easier. Merchants don’t process card numbers, reducing fraud risk. Tokenization can reduce the rate of fraud by up to 60%. 🔒🌍   ▪️ AI-Powered Fraud Detection: For the past 30 years, Visa has applied #AI to detect and prevent fraud in real-time. This “predictive AI” analyzes 500 risk attributes per transaction within the blink of an eye, to stop fraud before it even occurs. Last year, Visa helped prevent an estimated $40B in fraud. Using generative AI, Visa transfers its fraud and risk capabilities from the card world to other payment rails such as account-to-account payments. 🔒💼   At #FIBE25, Visa will further demonstrate its commitment to the digital transformation of the economy. 🌍💳 Attendees can look forward to learn more on how Visa leverages its global partner network to make technology accessible for the future of #digitalpayments 🚀🤝
