PODCAST: How digital payments turn the checkout occasion into a scalable advantage

Jeff Pomeroy, SVP, Head of Omnicommerce, Carat from Fiserv

Digital payments checkout occasion

If there was one key to success, businesses would double it and scale it. However, success is anything but static, meaning that those singular keys need to continually fit into ever-evolving locks. Nowhere is that more true than in payments.

Winning merchants recognize the need to “reinvent the checkout experience” to meet the expectations of today's customers. Listen to this PYMNTS podcast to hear Jeff Pomeroy, SVP, Head of Omnicommerce, Carat from Fiserv, and Karen Webster, CEO of PYMNTS.com, reframe the conversation around payments as a cost of doing business to a strategic product in their own right. Find out how modern advances, like artificial intelligence, channels along the customer journey and the role of data can help unlock the full potential of a merchant’s offerings in the ever-expanding digital landscape.

To learn how Omnichannel Commerce Experiences from Carat can help your business discover innovative ways to address costs, create engaging experiences, and stay ahead of the competition, contact a Carat expert today.
