Any fintech addressing the European market needs access to SEPA. Until 2025, EU fintechs had no choice but to work with partner banks to do so. The Instant Payments Regulation changed everything: payment and electronic money institutions can now directly connect to European payment systems.

In our next webinar, we unpack everything fintechs need to know before going direct:

*   What are the different models to participate in payment schemes
*   Non-bank direct access to payment systems: what does the regulation say?
*   Is it worth it to be direct participant? A look back at the UK example

Join us along with our outstanding guests:

*   [Myles Stephenson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mylescstephenson/), Founder and CEO at Modulr
*   [Wim Grosemans](https://www.linkedin.com/in/wim-grosemans-839432/), Global Head of Product Management - Payments & Receivables - Cash Management at BNP Paribas

SEPA participation: should fintechs go direct? Learnings from the UK example

The payment industry is bracing for major evolutions in 2025. The Instant Payments Regulation will impact much more than instant payments themselves. The next wave of regulations supervising payment and electronic money institutions will be adopted.

We will unpack everything you need to know in our next webinar:

*   Is the industry ready for the enforcement of the Instant Payments Regulation?
*   Latest updates on Verification of Payee
*   Non-bank direct access to payment systems: what will be the eligibility criteria?
*   What will be left in PSD3 and the PSR?

SEPA, PSD3 and instant payments: what to expect in 2025?

Starting January 2025, all European banks must support receiving SEPA instant payments. By October 2025, they must support Verification of Payee and sending instant payments.

Complying with these new requirements monopolises most bank tech and product resources. Between PSD2, this Instant Payments Regulation, and the upcoming PSD3 and PSR, the regulatory pace is intense. It leaves banks limited with few resources to innovate, improve the customer experience, and build value on top of the introduced changes.

Building from the right IT architecture changes the equation.

In this webinar, hosted by Simon Taylor, our expert panel will discuss how to comply with the upcoming Instant Payments Regulation and the next ones without renouncing innovation:

*   Summary of the Instant Payments Regulation and its impacts on banks
*   How to comply on time
*   Beyond instant payments: shifting IT resources from regulatory catch-up to innovation in the SEPA area

Join us along with our outstanding panel:

*   Simon Taylor (moderator), writer at Fintech Brain Food
*   Sylvie Calsacy, Lead Payments at OnePoint
*   Puneet Khanna, VP of Solution Consulting at Tuum
*   Édouard Mandon, Co-founder and CEO at Numeral

Payment systems and the regulations that shape them are constantly evolving, creating significant opportunities and new challenges for fintechs and bank teams.

2024 promises to be an especially packed year in that regard!

In this webinar, our expert panel will cover:

*   The latest news about the European instant payments legislation
*   The upcoming obligation of IBAN verification for all SEPA payments
