In this season of #TheShot, we make the case for treating payments and banking as a strategic topic. Every time money moves, it creates risk and fees, and those flows touch data security, user experience, risk, finance and technology across the whole organization.
Our guest is Viktoria Soltesz, Founder of the Soltesz Institute and author of Moving Money: How Banks Think and The CPayO. She explains why money flows must be planned before the product is built, who should own those decisions, and where payment orchestration helps and where it stops.
For PSPs, PayFacs, ISOs and ISVs, this season describes the questions their merchants face every day: who holds the funds, what each flow really costs, which payment methods each market needs, and what happens when a provider goes down. Operators that answer those questions through their infrastructure, with transparent fees and multi-provider options, help their merchants make these decisions before they become structural problems.
