Prepaid Card and Mobile Payment Risk: Compliance and Best Practices
A few months ago, The BayPay Forum was invited by the FS-ISAC from Homeland Security to do a presentation on “Emerging Payment – Emerging Risks” in the offices of the US Secret Service in San Francisco. If you don’t know this group, you should as it is a smart group of people from Goldman Sachs, to Citi, Wells, JP Morgan Chase and many others and even the US Department of the Treasury, who are gathering to protect our money.
While we were presenting, it was clear that there was a gap between what startups are going through when developing and launching new payment systems or services and the large financial institutions. To help fill this gap and educate entrepreneurs and new service providers on the state of compliance and best practice they should follow when designing new offerings, we have created this new BayPay event for banks, analysts, Venture Capitals at the board of companies and service providers to debate on this crucial topic.
We are very lucky to have with us Deloitte to stirr the discussion, Wells Fargo fraud and risk represented, I2C, a processor of open and close loop prepaid card, a senior analyst from AITE who has the particularity of having gone through the early steps of PayPal and last but not least, the CEO of ZipZap who has built an international network of cash remittance and is on the board of Opencoin, an alternative platform to Bitcoin based on collaborative processing (if we understood well what we learnt during the Bitcoin 2013 conference we sponsored a few weeks ago in San Jose).
This event will be the opportunity as well to reflect on how much regulation is necessary to protect our citizens while still not making it too difficult for innovators to build the commerce of tomorrow.
We hope you will enjoy the opportunity to network with peers and discuss these captivating topics. Refreshments will be served. Bring your business cards for great networking opportunities.
We look forward to seeing you there. To attend this event, please register above.
Thank you to our venue host, Wells Fargo Bank.
