The Payments Ecosystem: Not Nearly as Boring as You Think!
“We know—you read the words, “payments ecosystem,” and your heart sinks just a tiny bit. Perhaps you’re expecting a very dry explanation of how payment gateways, shopping carts, credit card networks, and all the other gears fit together to form the mighty payment machine. And while all that stuff is important, we firmly believe it does not need to be dull. Say it with us, “Payments are FUN!”
Why? Because payments matter—a lot. Oil all those parts and you’ll create a perfectly smooth, streamlined payments stack. Your customers will love you even more, you’ll reduce decline rates, boost revenue, remove friction, decrease operational costs, and get one step closer to becoming a full fledged payments geek.”
