This episode is sponsored by American Express. Dean Leavitt, founder and CEO of Boost Payment Solutions, takes us behind the scenes of a revolution happening in enterprise-level B2B payments. Founded to fill a critical gap in the market, Boost has spent 16 years perfecting technology that streamlines how large organizations pay their suppliers.At the center of our discussion is the transformative power of virtual cards – single-use payment instruments that dramatically enhance security while simplifying operations. Unlike traditional payment methods that require companies to maintain sensitive banking information of thousands of suppliers, virtual cards create a secure, automated payment flow that dramatically reduces fraud risk. As Dean proudly shares, Boost has never experienced a single chargeback or fraud loss in its entire history.The conversation spotlights Boost's groundbreaking collaboration with American Express, featuring their patented Boost Intercept technology. This innovation solves a persistent pain point in virtual card adoption by converting what were once manual, email-based payment processes into fully automated, straight-through experiences. The partnership enables American Express corporate customers to shift more spending to virtual cards while eliminating operational friction for suppliers receiving these payments.Beyond the technical details, Dean shares insights into the "PARTS" framework (Pricing, Automation, Reporting, Timing, Security) that guides their approach to payment optimization. The conversation reveals how thoughtful technology implementation creates genuine win-win scenarios for both sides of the transaction equation, making this a fascinating exploration of how innovation is reshaping corporate financial operations.

This speed and efficiency provide a significant advantage over traditional players in the financial services industry.The future direction of the payments industry suggests that as consumer expectations evolve, technologies like merchant-branded payment solutions and pay-by-bank will become more common.

As humans, our brains like to organize things - classify them, put them in silos. This thinking often works to our advantage - enabling deep analysis and understanding. Sometimes, though, it can work against us. We can be bound to a siloed thought process - a “this or that” false choice that causes us to miss the greater value inherent in doing both. In searching for guests who will inspire us to eschew false choices in favor of unexpected combinations, we met Glendy Kam, Chief Product Officer at Tassat. In this episode, Yvette enjoyed geeking out on payments innovation with Glendy and digging into how Tassat is creating an infrastructure enabling $1.4Tr in payments for commercial bank customers.  For all the participants who have been through a Glenbrook workshop and have asked about real-world use cases for distributed ledgers and blockchain technologies in payments, or are trying to figure out how to combine new and existing technologies to solve a problem, this episode is for you. Enjoy!
