Could Digital Currencies pave the way to a more instant, transparent, and efficient payments ecosystem?

February 9, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm



A world in which we all have the expectation and ability to move money instantaneously, 24/7, 365 days a year, and with full transparency – is it only a pipe dream, or could digital currencies be one of the paths to unlock such future? With an expectation for the digital currency to promote financial inclusion, to foster greater competition and better access to money, what is its potential to deliver not only as a payment method, but a whole new infrastructure enabling instant and frictionless payments?

14:30 Panel Discussion: How can digital currencies make payment systems more cost-effective, competitive, and resilient?

  • What types of crypto and digital assets are we dealing with, and which offer most promise now?
  • Given how innovative, dynamic and competitive current payment system is, what are the advantages to be gained from the introduction of Digital Currencies?
  • Will DLT-based solutions need to outperform existing ones, or merely provide an effective alternative, to foster greater competition?
  • What are the missing pieces of the puzzle for the Digital Currencies to go mainstream? What are the infrastructure requirements – crypto acquiring, wallets, better on/off ramps?

Still not receiving your auto-login link?

Instead of using passwords, we e-mail you a link to log in to the site. This allows us to automatically verify you and apply member benefits based on your e-mail domain name.

Please click the button below which relates to the issue you’re having.

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.
