The Future of Payments Growth

In Payments Dive , BCG’s Inderpreet Batra discusses the factors behind the slower growth rate in global payments revenue, as outlined in a recent BCG report . With North America projected to lower transaction-related revenue increases among regions, Batra notes that “the cash-to-card migration that fueled revenues for years has essentially peaked.” He adds that the next wave of growth will come from “embedding payments into software, scaling real-time account-to-account systems, and using AI to modernize infrastructure and unlock efficiency.”
