Secure Technology Alliance event to be co-located with U.S. Payments Forum Member Meeting in Salt Lake City


PRINCETON JUNCTION, N.J., Nov. 20, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Experts from across the industry will gather at the Secure Technology Alliance’s 2020 Payments Summit in February to share insights and practical, actionable business and technical information that can be used to develop strategies and plans for implementing trending or new payments technologies. Speakers will cover industry-defining topics including EMV, contactless and mobile payments, open loop payments, FinTech, mobile ticketing and more. For the second year the U.S. Payments Forum will hold its All-Member Meeting at the Payments Summit, resulting in the most comprehensive gathering of card and payments professionals ever.

The 13th Annual Payments Summit will be held February 24-27, 2020 at the Salt Lake Marriott Downtown at City Creek, Salt Lake City. Early registration rates increase on January 4, 2020. For more details and to register, visit https://www.stapayments.com/.

“The payments landscape in the U.S. is changing rapidly – particularly in regard to identity and contactless technology,” said Randy Vanderhoof, executive director of the Secure Technology Alliance. “With the growth in synthetic identity fraud and rising need for better authentication methods, identity is becoming a large part of the payments conversation. Similarly, transit and retail are adapting to the rise of contactless payment technology that is changing daily purchases around the U.S. Speakers at the 2020 Payments Summit will go in-depth on these changes and more, focusing on what they mean for the future of payments.”

One hundred industry-leading speakers will cover current challenges and innovations in payments across three education-filled days. First day roundtables, keynotes and panels include:

  • Age of Mobility Services and Payments Convergence
  • Synthetic ID Fraud Impacting Merchants and Financial Institutions
  • Consumer Payments, Fraud and Contactless Trends in America
