Discussion Framework: Merchant acquiring is evolving beyond transaction processing into a broader merchant-services model combining physical and digital acceptance, omnichannel commerce, SoftPOS, unattended payments, data, fraud prevention and value-added services. This panel will explore how the acquiring model is changing, what merchants increasingly expect from their providers, and how acquirers can stay relevant.
