Glossary of key AI terms for the payments industry

The Payments Association’s Financial Crime Working Group has created a Glossary of key AI terms for the payments industry.

The adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) divides opinion and serves to remind us that humans’ use of technology is not always a force for good. AI systems are powerful – they can compact and combine all the previous knowledge of humanity in their models. AI has the potential to transform our lives and will ultimately underpin our access to services. It is a disruptive technology which will increase the impact and speed of change. AI deployment clearly comes with risks and the issue facing us all is how to develop new and amend existing policies, processes and customer journeys to mitigate those risks and then enforce the regulation we create.

Understanding the language of AI is vital for policy makers and regulators to help them to recognise and evaluate the enormous potential of this sector. This Glossary will be reviewed and updated regularly. The consistent use of terms will enable a wide-spread common lexicon that supports a robust understanding of the impacts, challenges and potential solutions generated by AI.

I didn't receive an e-mail

Tip: Check your spam

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association

Tip: Check “other” tabs

Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.

Tip: Click the link within 60 minutes

For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.

Tip: Only click once

The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.

Tip: Delete old login e-mails

Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.

Tip: Check your security policies

Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.

Need to change your e-mail address?

For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
