With rates of card-not-present payment fraud continuing to grow higher every year, payment and data security has never been a higher priority for organizations. Protecting customer data is of utmost importance, especially with governments and regulatory bodies increasingly turning their attention to these issues and producing legislation to implore companies to take additional security measures.

Contact centers are a part of the organization particularly fraught with responsibility, processing mountains of payments and finding themselves to be a favorite target for hackers and fraudsters. Because of this, contact centers face a myriad of laws and regulations governing the way they treat this data, such as the PCI DSS for those taking payments, among many others.

Register now to Semafone for an insightful webinar where you'll learn:

- The top data security regulations, laws, and standards bodies affecting contact center data governance
- How to comply with sometimes competing regulatory requirements and resolve conflicting stipulations
- How to achieve compliance more simply and cost effectively


Presenter: Aaron Lumnah, Senior Manager, Demand Generation

Effectively managing cross-border payment compliance is one of the biggest challenges facing enterprises looking to expand globally.

Sending payments internationally requires adherence to multiple, often complex, payment regulations in both the originating country and the country in which the funds land.

Regulation continues to tighten and failure to comply brings significant costs ranging from failed payments and reputational damage to crippling fines and in severe cases, legal prosecution.

Yair will discuss the biggest compliance risks in the markets with the greatest opportunities (e.g., China, Russia), and offer insights on how to effectively leverage user behavior data to identify bad behaviors.

Having a great product and a slick marketing campaign isn’t enough anymore.

In the age of Uber and order-ahead, customers crave convenience, and payment options and methods help companies attract and keep customers.

What is your payments strategy?
Does it involve hardware and software?
What can you do to be on the cutting edge in payments to assist with customer retention and increase profits?

Innovation has quickly become an overused and distorted word. At Money20/20 Europe expect to cut through the hype, explore what measurements we can use to benchmark innovation and get to the heart of sustainable and commercial step change. A key question which has moved back up the C-Level agenda of established; banks, tech companies and payments companies is:

"How can incumbents deliver meaningful game-changing innovation?"

There are three options available for incumbents, and at Money20/20 Europe we’ll be developing deeper into each one:

1. Can organisations transform their cultures to execute true innovation internally within their organisations? (cultural transformation)

2. Perhaps tech transformation is the way forward, partnering or acquisitions to do so?

3. Or do they need to achieve business model transformation by building something entirely new outside of the organisation?


These options are being heavily debated in boardrooms throughout Europe, with a number of high profile banks recently announcing plans to build brand new subsidiaries. Some of the traditional banks, payments and tech companies are pursuing a few or all of the options while others are sitting on the fence. Which is most effective and why? What are the dynamics at play that determine success for different types of companies? Hear from the leading companies in our industry as they share their incisive insight on the successes but also the failures and the lessons learned.

Women are exposed to more financial risk over the course of their life.

We have a different life trajectory compared to men which exposes us to more financial shock. Women not only have more career interruptions, we work in part-time, temporary or insecure employment and live longer than our male partner.

Despite this women are less engaged when it comes to money and tend to save less and invest less. However report after report states that women want to learn more about money and investing.

So what is going on? And how can women take control of their financial future?

This webinar will outline how women can start to engage around money and what we need to do to build financial resilience. The aim is for the 'money conversation' to become accessible, fun and inspiring. At the same time we want to support women in having courage, clarity and confidence when it comes to money and investing.

The Purse is dedicated to empowering women financially so they can build the life of their dreams. We provide coaching, training, a community and tools so we can all support, learn and grow together.
