Your guide to A2A developments redefining payments in 2026, and how to prepare for what comes next |
|
The Paypers has released the Account-to-Account Payments Report 2026, which brings together expert perspectives from payment systems and scheme operators, PSPs, fintechs, consultants, analysts, and a merchant, unpacking the main developments in the space. |
|
A2A payments made up 7% of global ecommerce in 2025. In Brazil, Pix alone reached 42%. The gap is closing: the UK launched its first commercial VRP scheme this year, Wero went live for ecommerce in Germany and Belgium, and the card networks are building their own A2A services. |
|
To help you navigate this, The Paypers has released a strategic guide to the technologies, interoperability efforts, and partnerships shaping A2A payments now and beyond. |
