What's your strategy for staying ahead of changing payment preferences?
With the increasing sophistication and options available to optimise the process of making a payment, why is late payment to suppliers still an issue? In the UK, it seems like every year that a survey draws attention to c. £25bn being owed to suppliers as late payments from their customers. If that money was made available to the economy, not only would the integrity of supply chains be better supported but the wellbeing of thousands of business owners would be enhanced. The problem is real but seems rarely newsworthy. More needs to be done for small businesses in particular and the positive actions of the Small Business Commissioner, Good Business Pays (https://goodbusinesspays.com/) and the business associations need to be amplified.

What's your strategy for staying ahead of changing payment preferences?
Having seen the evolution of open banking in the UK, through mandated APIs managed through the CMA9 and OBIE and beyond, the perceived benefits are still skewed towards merchants. For PISPs, the benefits to buyers are regularly compared to cards or simple bank transfers. There is still a need to promote those benefits to both consumers and businesses alike as a viable alternative to existing options. For AISPs, the messaging seems clearer, in being able to offer alternatives to a credit check that impacts a individual or business's credit score. Offering a 'soft check' through access to an applicant's bank account is often seen as preferable. From experience to date, the challenge for PISPs still seems to be focused on the buyer.
