On this week’s episode of News & Views, sponsored by TrustVanta, The Fintech Times Podcast team speak about ClearBank’s partnership with Captial on Tap and Pix having its payment capabilities expanded upon, as the central bank has announced a number of new features.
Francis kicked off the conversation this week by exploring the Central Bank of Brazil‘s latest Pix features, as it expands the already extremely successful payment option’s capabilities. Focusing on the launch of a ‘pay later’ feature, Francis and Polly explored how other buy now, pay later (BNPL) entities might fare in Brazil, given that they may gravitate towards using something they already know.
Following this, the conversation turned to embedded banking and embedded finance following a new partnership. Polly and Francis discuss how the AI hype has put other technologies out of the limelight, but that the development of embedded finance will still be incredibly beneficial in the fintech and financial landscape.
