Join the Ascent to EMV and Smart Mobile Payments

Over 500 executive delegates came together last February in Salt Lake City for Payments Summit–the industry’s leading forum for smart, secure payment technology, implementation, and markets. For 2013, we’re building on that success with a larger meeting facility and an up-to-the minute conference agenda. And we’re continuing our coverage of every leading transaction platform: EMV card payments, mobile payments, and transit payments. Reserve your seat now at this gathering of leading smart card practitioners, solutions developers, end users, and suppliers.

The US is the world’s largest payments ecosystem and the migration to EMV–the global transaction security standard–has now begun in earnest. Yet, for many banks, credit unions, issuers and merchants there’s still a frustrating lack of clarity. At the same time, NFC-enabled payments are starting to take shape as card networks, telecoms and handset manufacturers target the market with mobile wallet solutions. But no ubiquitous model for all merchants and issuers has emerged. Finally, transit ridership is considered by many to be the “killer app” in expanding the use of open standards-based contactless bank card and mobile payments, and major transit operators have launched pilots nationwide.

Considerable work remains to clear a path for this migration. Payments Summit is the place to consult the trailblazers and plan your own journey.
