Our purpose is to empower the most influential community in payments, where the connections, collaboration and learning shape an industry that works for all. We operate as an independent representative for the industry and its interests, and drive collaboration within the payments sector in order to bring about meaningful change and innovation. We work closely with industry stakeholders such as the Bank of England, the FCA, HM Treasury, the Payment Systems Regulator, Pay.UK, UK Finance and Innovate Finance. Through our comprehensive programme of activities for members and with guidance from an independent Advisory Board of leading payments CEOs, we facilitate the connections and build the bridges that join the ecosystem together and make it stronger. These activities include a programme of monthly digital and face-to-face event, including the industry leading PAY360 event and PAY360 Awards dinner, CEO round tables and training activities. We run 7 stakeholder working groups: Inclusion, Regulator, Financial Crime, Cross-Border, ESG and Open Banking. The volunteers within these groups represent the collective view of The Payments Association members at industry-critical moments and work together to drive innovation in these areas. We also conduct exclusive industry research which is made available to our members through our Insights knowledge base. These include monthly whitepapers, insightful interviews and tips from the industry’s most successful CEOs. The Payments Association is the trading name of Emerging Payments Ventures Limited.

📣 BIG PAYMENTS NEWS Revolut, one of Britain’s most successful and well-known payments firms, recently achieved its status as a UK licenced bank and (more importantly) is The Payments Association’s newest member! We're pleased to welcome this disruptor to our payments community. Continuing its journey from e-money firm to fully-fledged bank is a testament to its innovation and dedication to the industry. It’s not overstating it to describe this milestone as a win for the entire payments ecosystem. We look forward to collaborating with Revolut on shaping the future of payments together. This bodes well for the continued – and hopefully accelerated – growth of the UK as a leading financial centre. #payments #fintech #banking #collaboration #welcome
