Payments Sector Scorecard - Thematic Intelligence
Summary
This report identifies 10 key themes that are driving changes and disruption in the payments industry, including technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and the cloud. The report explores each theme and its impact on the payments industry over the coming years, as well as naming leaders and laggards for each theme. Going forward, companies that are not able to adapt to the changes brought about by these 10 themes will be left behind.
As the payments industry continues to shift and change, incumbent companies are acquiring startups and stakes in competitors to grow their market share. Visa completed its acquisition of open banking company Tink in 2022 and Worldline acquired an 80% stake in Eurobank Merchant Acquiring. Companies that dominate within these themes will continue to grow their market share and gradually push out their competitors. Interest in new payment solutions such as open banking, blockchain and buy now pay later (BNPL) was first driven by fintech startups but as they gain attention, incumbent companies are adopting them and launching their solutions. Visa and Mastercard developed their own BNPL solutions and are working on rolling them out at their merchants. This will challenge the position of the leading established BNPL providers such as Klarna and Afterpay.
