The Executive AI Event for Payments Leaders

Today’s economy operates 24/7, and payments are evolving quickly to keep up.. As artificial intelligence reshapes every layer of the payments ecosystem, financial institutions are under increasing pressure to modernize infrastructure, streamline payment operations, strengthen fraud prevention, and deliver seamless payment experiences wherever and however customers choose to transact.

That’s why FinAi News is proud to present the 2027 FinAi Payments Summit.

Over two days, senior executives from across banking, payments, fintech, and technology will explore how AI is transforming payment infrastructure, commercial payments, treasury, cards and merchant services, digital banking, fraud prevention, and customer experiences.

The Future of Intelligent Payments Starts Here

From real-time payment networks and AI-powered payment orchestration to agentic commerce, autonomous payments and intelligent transaction processing, the next generation of payments is becoming more connected, automated, and customer-centric. 

As organizations accelerate AI adoption, they’re also navigating critical questions around governance, security, compliance, identity, fraud prevention, and customer trust. How should autonomous payment decisions be governed? How can institutions balance frictionless payment experiences with stronger authentication and transaction monitoring? And how can AI be deployed responsibly while supporting the speed, scale, and complexity of today’s always-on payments economy?

What’s Driving Payments Today—and What’s Coming Next

Unlike technology conferences focused on future possibilities, FinAi Payments Summit delivers practical lessons from organizations actively deploying AI today. Hear directly from executives leading AI initiatives at banks, payment networks, fintechs, and technology providers while building relationships with peers also tackling the industry’s biggest strategic and operational challenges. 

Attendees will gain actionable insights into modernizing payment infrastructure, implementing agentic AI, transforming treasury and commercial payments, leveraging AI for fraud prevention and transaction monitoring, enabling intelligent payment orchestration, and creating personalized payment experiences that drive operational efficiency, strengthen customer relationships, and unlock new business opportunities. 

Join the leaders shaping the next generation of intelligent payments — and discover how AI is redefining the future of commerce.
