Title
Data challenges in the payments industry
Abstract
Everyone understands transactions - you ask the barista for a cup of coffee, tap your card, get your coffee and a couple of days later the money goes out of your account - simple!
In reality this process is much more complex and involves data communication between multiple different parties. Fintechs deal with data from multiple disparate sources, in varying formats, with different specifications. Understanding this data is key to operations.
This talk will outline the transaction lifecycle highlighting how data is communicated between various parties, describe some of the challenges faced by fintechs before taking a closer look at how we can compare data from disparate sources.
