On this week’s episode of News & Views, The Fintech Times Podcast team discuss Payit by NatWest uncovering obstacles facing open banking with solutions to overcome them and Binance announcing that Pix will now be integrated into its Binance Pay payments solution in Brazil.
Despite being a man down, the team celebrated a milestone this week hitting the 200-episode mark. Kicking off the conversation, Francis explored Binance’s latest Pix integration and how cryptocurrency may be viewed more as a mainstream payment method as a result.
Following this, Polly discussed open banking’s challenges, with the duo agreeing that most firms already knew about the technology and that education wasn’t necessarily what was needed. They spoke about how time will be a big factor in the tech’s adoption as those that don’t utilise it will quickly lose out to those that do, in turn forcing them to implement open banking.
