Erik Kaju from TransferWise will give a talk “How to build a payment card product”.
For a long time payment cards used to be the domain of banks. In the last decade, the paradigm has shifted – we see more and more regular enterprises issuing their own cards, be it telcos, grocery store chains, various fintech startups etc.
But what does it take to build a payment card from scratch? How do cards work? What is the anatomy of card transactions?
This is a talk focusing on technical and product aspects of the card issuance, based on true story.
(Language – English)

Jake Sebastian-Jones from Nordigen will give a talk “Data is not enough, you need information”.
Having a lot of raw data by itself is meaningless – you need to extract information from the data. Banks and other financial institutions have a lot of data but surprisingly little information. This talk will explain how Nordigen uses transaction data to provide multiple tiers of information to financial service providers.
