What if sending money online were as seamless as sending an email?
Today, techies can build applications that connect users across the world, yet digital payments remain fragmented across banks, wallets, mobile money providers, and payment platforms.
In this session, we'll explore Open Payments ; an open standard designed to make digital payments more interoperable, accessible, and developer-friendly.
Join us for a special community session with Marian Villa from the Interledger ecosystem as we discuss how open payment infrastructure is shaping the future of the internet and creating new opportunities for developers, entrepreneurs, and innovators.
What you'll learn
- Why today's payment systems are still fragmented
- What Open Payments are and why they matter
- How open standards can transform digital payments
- The role techies can play in building the future of financial infrastructure
- Real-world use cases and opportunities to get involved
Whether you're a software developer, open source contributor, fintech builder, student, or simply curious about the future of digital payments, this session is for you.
