Course Description

Technology behind consumer payments has rapidly advanced in the last few years with payment gateways, mobile payments, and peer-to-peer payments now ubiquitous fixtures of our day-to-day lives. But with B2B payments, their sheer complexity has made them much slower to change. Now with digital transformation having accelerated by an estimated seven years since the onset of COVID-19, B2B businesses have an opportunity to finally make their payment processes as seamless as those in B2C. In this webinar, you’ll learn how B2B payment technology is evolving for an increasingly digital economy and how buyers and suppliers alike can benefit.

Learning Objectives:


  • Describe the evolution of B2B e-commerce

  • Recognize the difference between payment facilitators and traditional payment processors

  • Recognize how a PayFac model can deliver better payment experiences and greater back-office efficiencies

  • Determine what implications the migration of B2B brands to e-commerce has for risk exposure and how to mitigate them
