Payments innovations are great, but they are only valuable if merchants accept them.
In this episode, Ben Jackson talks about addressing this issue with John Minor, executive vice president and chief product officer for PayNearMe, a payments acceptance technology provider.
They talk about the future of transactions as new payment types enter shoppers’ wallets, why transaction fees are not the full picture of payments costs, and the future of cash.
