Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cian Fitzpatrick and Dylan Fitzpatrick - PayFex Global
Q: What is the biggest opportunity or area to redesign in the payments ecosystem?
Transparency in costs and money movement is essential, and while AI can enhance internal systems, maintaining a strong human touch and trust-based relationships remains the core opportunity.
Cian Fitzpatrick and Dylan Fitzpatrick - PayFex Global
Q: What belief did you previously hold about payments, and has that changed?
Payments used to be seen as a necessary evil and cost center, but now it's understood as a potential competitive advantage when managed correctly to accelerate cash flow, enable faster cycles, and support growth.
Candice Pressinger - Director of Customer Data Security, Elavon Europe (part two)
Q: What excites you about the near-term opportunities in payments?
Agentic Commerce and the ongoing fusion of technology and innovation will make cardholders and merchants' journeys easier and more exciting, enabling new ways to buy and shop securely.
Candice Pressinger - Director of Customer Data Security, Elavon Europe (part two)
Q: Why is security a growth lever rather than a compliance burden?
Because adaptive security powered by machine learning and AI reduces friction, lowers false positives, and protects revenue growth by allowing legitimate transactions to proceed smoothly.
Candice Pressinger - Director of Customer Data Security, Elavon Europe (part two)
Q: How do you approach collaboration within your organization and in the wider payments ecosystem?
I build alliances early, align stakeholders across internal teams, and participate in data-sharing consortia with other acquirers to detect fraud trends and assess risks in real time.
