    In This Episode Which trends are genuinely reshaping and transforming banking? Is fintech hitting its “awkward adolescent phase”—past the hype but not yet fully mature? Today we sort through the signal and the noise. Which trends are actually changing how banks work and which are mostly theater. There are lots of pitches coming at banks, but just like in baseball, you can’t swing at them all. How do financial institutions decide what’s worth pursuing versus what’s just the latest headline? Joining host Jason Henrichs are two people who view the landscape from different vantage points: Alex Johnson, Founder of FinTech Takes who analyzes and challenges the narratives shaping fintech, and Meghan Kober, Head of Fintech Partnerships & Investments at U.S. Bank who sits on the side of who decides which innovations get deployed within one of the most innovative banks. Together, they dig into where fintech stands today and what the next phase might look like once the noise settles. This episode of Breaking Banks is part of the FintechXchange recording series at the University of Utah, powered by U.S. Bank.

    Credit unions entered 2026 with more digital ambition than any segment of the banking industry. Yet 60% are still in early stages of transformation or lack clear goals. That's not a strategy issue. It's an execution issue. In this episode of The Experience Factor, sponsored by Q2, Jim Marous sits down with Jesus Garcia, Chief Experience Officer at OceanAir Federal Credit Union, to examine what the 2026 Retail Banking Trends and Priorities report reveals about the credit union sector and how one institution is moving beyond ambition to measurable results. This conversation covers: * The execution gap * The branch expansion paradox * The talent contradiction * Fintech partnerships that actually drive impact * The open banking blind spot * AI: substance vs optics This discussion isn't about strategy decks. It's about what's actually working and what must change. The Experience Factor is sponsored by Q2. Download the 2026 Retail Banking Trends and Priorities Report here.

    What does it actually take to secure a payments company in an era of sophisticated, well-funded cybercriminals? In this first episode of The Trust Advantage Series, brought to you by Payroc, host Greg Myers sits down with David Edwards, Payroc's Senior Vice President of Information Security, for a candid and eye-opening conversation about modern cybersecurity in the payments industry.With 30 years in technology — spanning private banking, retail, and payments — David brings hard-won perspective to the questions keeping payments executives up at night. Sparked by a real-world ransomware attack on a payments company, this episode cuts through the compliance checkbox mentality to explore what genuine, operational security actually looks like.David and Greg cover a wide range of critical topics: why passing audits doesn't equal being secure, how AI has radically changed the phishing threat landscape, the three pillars of identity and vulnerability management, and why resilience — not prevention — is the new gold standard. David also breaks down Payroc's layered approach to ransomware defense, how the company integrates acquired platforms without creating security gaps, and the right questions ISVs, ISOs, banks, and merchants should be asking their payment partners.Whether you're a developer, a risk officer, or a business owner processing transactions, this episode delivers a masterclass in why security isn't just an IT issue — it's everyone's job.

    In the rapidly evolving landscape of technology, the search for high-caliber talent is a constant challenge for U.S. businesses. Yet just a short flight away, a vibrant and largely untapped reservoir of skilled professionals is driving innovation across Latin America. Plugg Technologies was founded on the recognition of this immense potential, creating a dedicated pathway for U.S. companies to access the exceptional tech expertise found in countries like Argentina, Mexico, and beyond. This is the story of how a bold vision turned into a company that is redefining staff augmentation and forging powerful, cross-border partnerships.In 2015, Brian Samson, made a bold move. He left San Francisco for Buenos Aires, taking on the challenge of growing a FinTech startup. What started as a small team quickly evolved into a thriving workforce of 85 talented professionals in Argentina. This eye-opening experience revealed a powerful truth: Latin America is home to a wealth of untapped tech talent ready to drive global innovation. This insight led to the creation of Plugg Technologies, a company dedicated to connecting U.S. businesses with the best and brightest minds in LATAM. With the addition of Ruben Santana a 30-year staffing veteran with extensive experience leading nearshoring operations in Mexico our team grew stronger. Ruben's knowledge of the region's talent landscape has been instrumental in our success.Today, Plugg Technologies has become a trusted partner for U.S. companies, placing hundreds of top Latin American tech professionals from Argentina, Mexico, and beyond.

    Javier Riaño, de IronIA Fintech, importancia de las clases y las retrocesiones, que ahora que se busca seguridad con fondos monetarios. “El fondo es un vehículo que en España no se ha hecho relativamente fácil el conocerlo en profundidad”, afirma el invitado. Además añade que tiene varios matices, ya que como señala es que el más importante es que“el mismo fondo tiene varias clases”. ¿Qué significa esto? El experto explica que “el mismo producto si compras la clase A te cuesta un euro y medio y si te cuesta un clase C un 0,50”. Señala que es “similar a cuando vas a un supermercado y el mismo producto en un supermercado y en otro distinto te cuesta diferente”. Javier Riaño también habla del código ISIN en los fondos de inversión. “El código ISIN es el DNI, te marca todo: el coste, la divisa, si paga dividendos o no”, afirma el invitado. “Entre los códigos ISIN que son diferentes lo que se diferencia entre ellos es el coste y también puede haber que uno sea en euros y otros en dólares”, asegura el entrevistado. ¿Cómo puede elegir el cliente entre todos estos fondos? El invitado destaca que destacan con símbolos para que el consumidor no se pierda. ¿Para qué la compañía da a elegir todas esas opciones? El entrevistado destaca que la compañía “enseña todo” y además asegura que “a la gente que no tiene ese conocimiento le damos ese servicio de gestión discrecional”. ¿La volatilidad en el mercado está provocando que esté entrando más dinero? “Los movimientos bruscos del mercado lo que hacen es retraer a la gente” y también asegura que esto hace que adquieran fondos monetarios de hasta un 1% de gestión, cuando “en IronIA te puedes encontrar fondos con una comisión de un 0,10%”.

    There's a tension at the heart of modern banking that technology doesn't seem to totally resolve: how do you be both, digitally excellent and deeply human at the same time? Most banks have picked a lane: either betting on digital efficiency or doubling down on relationship banking. But consumers aren't asking for one or the other. They want both. They want their banking app to work flawlessly when they need it, and they want someone who actually knows them when it matters. My guest today is Dontá Wilson, Truist's Chief Consumer and Small Business Banking Officer. He leads 20,000 teammates serving clients through both digital channels and more than 1,900 community banking branches. His portfolio spans core deposits and loans to mortgage, auto, credit cards, and the full stack of consumer products. He also oversees Truist's multi-year growth plan that's reimagining both their digital experience and their physical branches using insights and AI. We talked about how AI is redefining consumer expectations and trust, what it takes to innovate inside a highly regulated industry while keeping client purpose at the center, and why Dontá believes innovation without empathy is empty.

    Welcome back to Fintech Recap. I'm Alex Johnson, joined as always by my partner in recapping, Jason Mikula. We kick things off with Block's move into credit scoring. Block stitched together data across Cash App and Afterpay into a proprietary score it's now surfacing to consumers and selling to other lenders, claiming auto lenders could approve 30% more borrowers at identical loss rates using the Cash App score. We dig into adverse selection when consumers choose what to share, where this fits in lender workflows, and the FCRA wrinkle that “transactions and experiences” data can fall outside the definition of a consumer report… Then, we dive into stablecoins. Jason walks through the rebirth of “no KYC” crypto-funded spending cards, including testing several of these services himself (tune in to discover the pattern!). The core mechanic Jason flags is a corporate card loophole: KYB the company, then issue incremental “employee” cards with no legal or regulatory requirement to verify the person behind each card. From there, we zoom out to Bridge, Stripe's stablecoin infrastructure subsidiary. Bridge got conditional OCC approval to form a national trust bank and moved jurisdictions (which include Russia, Belarus, Gaza, South Sudan, and Venezuela) from “controlled” to “prohibited,” while still defining “prohibited” with an “extraordinary situations” carveout. Plus, in our Can't Let It Go corner: prediction markets.  CFTC Chair Mike Sig told the Senate during his nomination hearing that he'd defer to the courts on sports betting and prediction markets. But early this year, he reversed course, asserting the CFTC's exclusive jurisdiction and filing amicus briefs against state prohibitions aimed at sports betting. Kalshi and Polymarket loved it, and I'm sure that's unrelated to the fact that Sig's boss's son is an advisor to both. We close with Substack's new partnership with Polymarket to embed prediction markets into journalism, set against a real-world example of the incentive problem: Israeli authorities investigated and arrested military reservists and a civilian for allegedly using classified information to place bets on Polymarket.

In this first episode, I sit down with Macloud Moyo, founder of Humble Roots Agency, to talk about what's actually working on LinkedIn right now for fintech companies. We get into why your company page is probably reaching almost no one, who should be posting on behalf of your brand, and when it makes sense to put paid budget behind organic content.We also talk about something most teams underestimate: commenting. Macloud shared how a single comment got him 50,000 impressions and how he now pulls 35 to 40K weekly just from strategic replies.We also explain how organic content and paid distribution can work together, and why fintech marketing on LinkedIn is ultimately a long game built on relationships and trust.If you enjoyed this episode:Follow the podcast on Spotify so you don't miss the next conversations.Subscribe to the Fintech x Growth newsletter: https://fintechxgrowth.comConnect with Ana Paula Picasso on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anapaulapicassoConnect with Macloud Moyo on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/macloudmoyo/Learn more about Humble Roots: https://www.humbleroots.agency/Timestamps(00:00) Why everyone in fintech ends up on LinkedIn(03:20) Company pages vs personal profiles: the reach gap(10:30) Thought leadership content and when to promote posts with ads(18:30) Why commenting might outperform posting(24:30) Playing the long game in fintech marketing(26:00) Book recommendations: Freakonomics and Filterworld

    What if checkout was the growth engine instead of an add-on? We sit down with Ismael Wrixen, CEO of ThriveCart, to explore how a payments-first platform can power the modern creator economy from a $99 template to a $10,000 mastermind without locking you into a brittle tech stack. Ismael breaks down how ThriveCart layers affiliates, an LMS, and marketing automation on top of payments, then uses smart funnels to turn checkout into predictable revenue.The conversation gets especially interesting around financing. As ticket sizes rise, traditional BNPL hits limits on geography and amount. Enter Thrive Pay Installments: interest-free plans using a customer's existing card limit, delivered globally in USD, CAD, GBP, EUR, and AUD. Early data shows 3.3x higher average order values, approvals jumping from ~40% to ~85%, and checkout time collapsing to five seconds. Merchants still get paid up front; buyers spread payments over three, six, or twelve months with no new loan application, no extra friction.We also zoom out to the bigger picture of the creator economy and AI. Demand for reskilling surges as companies retool, and creators step in with specialized courses and coaching across finance, business, wellness, and AI. Ismael shares why flexibility is non-negotiable—keep your payment funnel, swap your LMS, integrate with 50+ tools, and sell globally with automated taxes and e-invoicing support coming online. We discuss where LLM commerce is heading, why human-in-the-loop purchasing still matters, and how adaptive pricing and localized experiences unlock international growth.If you care about conversion, funding bigger baskets, and building a stack that won't trap you as AI reshapes the landscape, this is your roadmap.

    JX Lye, Founder and CEO of Acme, joins Jeremy Au to unpack how execution compounds advantage in Southeast Asia fintech. They explore Acme's journey from solving delayed bank reconciliation to becoming a core bank connectivity layer serving fintech platforms, direct debit infrastructure, and ERP systems across Singapore and the region. The conversation covers the hard realities of going from zero to one customer, the discipline required from one to five, and how scaling to 80 customers shifts growth toward retention and upsell. Joshua reflects on fintech's COVID boom and 2023 reset, the Brex versus Ramp execution debate, and why Singapore rewards niche depth in financial services. He also shares how AI is shifting from model hype to vertical application, and why founder endurance, health, and signal reading matter more than chasing a visible summit. 03:12 Instant payments exposed a broken backend: FAST and PayNow moved money instantly, but apps waited days because reconciliation relied on end-of-day bank statements. 09:18 From one to five customers demands discipline: Founders must resist custom builds, stay product focused, and lead sales personally to avoid fragmentation. 13:08 Scaling to 80 customers shifts growth drivers: Upsells and retention begin compounding faster than new logo acquisition in Southeast Asia's shallow markets. 17:24 Fintech's COVID boom distorted reality: Easy capital and soaring markets fueled inflated valuations that later reset in 2023. 22:38 Execution beats first mover advantage: Ramp outcompounded Brex through speed, alignment, and focus rather than positioning alone. 25:42 Focus and alignment define execution quality: If teams describe different priorities, compounding slows and distraction spreads. 38:32 Founder stress never disappears, it evolves: Milestones do not remove pressure; resilience, health, and signal reading sustain long-term ambition.

    Het is de dag van de bizarre plottwist. De dag dat de overnamesoap van Warner Bros. Discovery tot een einde kwam. Niet Netflix (dat al een deal had gesloten), maar Paramount gaat er met het bedrijf vandoor. Hun bod is 'superieur' en Netflix heeft geen trek om hun bod te verhogen. Netflix verliest, maar wint tegelijkertijd. Daar hebben we het deze aflevering over. Aandeelhouders van Netflix zijn blij dat ze de overname niet doen, maar is dat terecht? Creëren ze nu niet een monster van een concurrent? Hebben we het ook over Amerikaanse aandelen. Die zijn ineens een stuk minder populair bij Nederlandse, particuliere beleggers. Bij jou dus. Uit onderzoek van ING blijkt een derde van de Nederlandse beleggers minder belegt in de VS. En steeds meer kiest voor Europese aandelen.Ook hoor je deze aflevering over de kwartaalcijfers van Fugro en het verrassende vertrek van de CFO. Anthropic komt voorbij, dat overhoop ligt met de Amerikaanse overheid én we bespreken de enorme faal van SAP. Dat heeft geblunderd met bonussen. Te gast: Bob Homan, van ING Investment Office. BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie. Van Musk tot Microsoft en van Ahold tot ASML.

El CEO de IronIA Fintech explica la información que tienen los vehículos de inversión. “El cliente va a encontrar la misma información de los vehículos que va encontrar en el resto de la plataforma”, afirma el invitado.

Además destaca que “el fondo Metafinanzas lleva con cuatro puntos de la compañía desde hace mucho tiempo”. Para él, lo que demuestra esto es “la calidad del fondo y la estabilidad del mismo”. El CEO de IronIA Fintech también resalta que “la opinión de otros las tienen con el ránking de carteras” y que es”donde se puede ver carteras de otros y ver como lo están haciendo”.

    In this first episode of a new series on the Leaders in Payments podcast, host Greg Myers sits down with Chris Aristides, Founder and CEO of Jaris, to explore what it truly takes for payments companies and ISOs to remain competitive as the market shifts toward owned, embedded finance experiences.Chris brings an unconventional background to the payments world, having spent 22 years in the hedge fund industry as an analyst and portfolio manager before making the move into building a company. The conversation begins with the origin story of Jaris, which set out to bring a Square Capital-style lending product to the broader payments market. Rather than following the typical merchant cash advance route, Chris made the deliberate choice to build on a bank-backed model with a modern tech stack, prioritising regulatory alignment and a foundation flexible enough to eventually expand into multi-product banking services.A significant portion of the discussion centers on the complexity of working with legacy payment processors. Unlike vertical SaaS platforms, which offer high conversion and seamless integration, the legacy world is fragmented, running on outdated infrastructure with no easy outlet to plug into. Jaris has spent years building around this challenge, developing its own cloud-based core and processor-agnostic settlement infrastructure to bridge that gap.Chris also addresses the broader vision, making the case that lending alone is insufficient and that engaging the full merchant base requires a suite of products including instant payouts and commercial banking. He closes by framing Jaris not as a disruptor, but as a complement to the existing infrastructure, doing the hard work the industry has long needed done.

    Charla con Ramiro Iglesias, CEO y cofundador de Crescenta, la primera gestora española especializada en dar acceso al inversor minorista a fondos de private equity de primer nivel mundial. Con más de 15 años de experiencia en inversión entre Nueva York, Barcelona y Madrid, Ramiro ha recorrido un camino poco convencional: de simular carteras con 14 años a gestionar 10.000 millones en Wall Street. MBA por Columbia Business School, ha sido socio de Kentia Capital Partners y Antai Ventures.La conversación arranca con una historia familiar que marcó su vocación inversora y recorre su etapa en Nueva York y el salto al emprendimiento. También exploramos cómo funciona el private equity en la práctica —las diferencias entre Venture Capital, Growth, Buyout, Real Assets y Secundarios—, el nacimiento de Crescenta y cómo la Ley Crea y Crece abrió la puerta a democratizar el capital privado, los criterios con los que seleccionan los fondos, el acceso a gestoras top, por qué el historial de añadas importa tanto y su cartera de inversiones.Este episodio cuenta con el patrocinio de Crescenta y su nuevo Fondo de Inversión Libre (FIL), el Multistrategy Private Equity Access I, que empaqueta lo mejor del capital privado —Buyouts, Growth Equity y Activos reales— con una gran ventaja fiscal: puedes traspasar tu dinero desde otros fondos retrasando el peaje fiscal. Inversión a largo plazo con un compromiso desde 10.000 euros que aportas poco a poco según se vayan solicitando. Disclaimer: Las inversiones de capital privado conllevan riesgos significativos que el inversor debe ser capaz de evaluar, incluyendo: riesgo de pérdida total o parcial de la inversión, volatilidad, iliquidez de los activos, restricciones para la desinversión y plazos de inversión prolongados.

    Kenji Kuramoto is the Founder and former CEO of Acuity, a pioneering outsourced accounting and fractional CFO firm that built and maintained financial functions for thousands of innovative entrepreneurs. Under his leadership, Acuity became one of Accounting Today's Top Firms for Technology and a Top Firm to Work For, before merging into Sorren in 2025. In this episode, Kenji joins Jason M. Blumer, CPA, to unpack what really happens when you step away from something that's still working. He shares the full story behind Acuity's 20-year journey, the decision to run a proactive merger process, and why he ultimately chose not to continue into the next chapter with Sorren—despite being Acuity's founder and leading the proactive merger process. The conversation explores the emotional reality of leadership transitions: identity loss, grief, relief, clarity, and the discipline required to not hold on too long. Kenji reflects on the surprisingly anticlimactic nature of closing day, the importance of timing your exit well, and how staying deeply connected to the profession helped him navigate life after stepping away. Today, Kenji is an investor, founder, and advisor focused on reimagining the future of the accounting profession. He is the founder of 404 Invests, an early-stage investment firm backing Accounting Technology, SaaS, FinTech, and Crypto companies. Earlier in his career, Kenji served as CFO of an Inc. 5000 tech company and began in the assurance practice at Arthur Andersen.

    In this episode of the Leaders in Payments podcast, host Greg Myers sits down with Alex Dewison, Director of Digital Solutions at Global Payments, to explore the rapidly evolving world of online commerce and checkout experiences. Alex brings a rich background to the conversation, having started his career in software development before moving into payments at Worldpay, where he worked with major UK retailers like Tesco and Next, and eventually transitioning into his current role overseeing digital product strategy across Europe, Asia, and Oceania.The discussion covers how consumer payment expectations have shifted dramatically, with digital wallets now accounting for over twenty percent of transactions and instant refunds becoming a baseline expectation rather than a perk. Alex argues that friction at checkout is no longer tolerable and that the industry is moving toward what he calls "invisible" or zero-click commerce, where the act of paying becomes seamlessly embedded in the shopping experience itself.The conversation also tackles the tension between platform simplicity and merchant control, the dangers of offering too many payment options, and the importance of localizing payment methods when expanding internationally. Alex shares practical guidance on how merchants can reduce cart abandonment by addressing surprise fees, slow page loads, and poor mobile optimization.On the topic of AI, Alex separates genuine near-term value, such as intelligent payment routing and adaptive fraud detection, from the longer-term hype around fully autonomous AI agents. He closes with a pointed message for e-commerce leaders: in 2026, your payment experience is your product, and the winners will be those who relentlessly remove friction rather than add features.
