As both Visa and Mastercard announce higher charges for e-commerce transactions and almost two-thirds of Europeans now bank online, it seems the popularity of alternative payment methods, or “alt-pays”, continues to grow as consumers seek faster, safer payments and merchants look to reduce the cost of payments.      This rise in demand for alternative payment solutions – whether as instant account-to-account payments or platform-specific closed-loop solutions –      comes when card payments are under increasing scrutiny from regulators.  Link here.
