With payments technology getting more and more complicated -- and fraud evolving at a similar rate -- how can SaaS companies build a winning payments strategy in a rapidly changing payments industry?

Nikita Skitev of Payments Strategist joins host Joshua Silver to discuss this question and much more. They covered:

  • The best way to learn about payments and fintech quickly when you’re just starting out
  • Hidden costs of an all-in-one “walled garden” solution, and when to choose open ecosystem providers instead
  • 6 key components to payments strategy, and why platforms must proactively manage their own fintech roadmap
  • Two common types of fraud, and how SaaS platforms can grow volume without taking on excessive risk
  • How to holistically evaluate a payment solution from both the payer and payee perspective – and why software companies need to consider both
