But shaped by the businesses willing to adapt, rethink, and build for change.

At MPE 2026, industry leaders shared their perspectives on AI, agentic commerce, orchestration, trust, resilience, compliance, and merchant optionality.

❓Do you safeguard funds or not❓

Sounds like a simple question.

Except when two different teams of lawyers give you two completely different answers.

That's the reality of payments today.

At MPE LIVE TV, 𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗿𝗮 𝗝𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 shared how a single compliance question sparked the creation of a 105-page regulatory roadmap — helping payments professionals navigate an increasingly complex landscape as PSD3 and PSR move closer.

And regulation isn't the only challenge on the horizon.

🚀 As agentic commerce evolves, merchants are asking new questions about trust, identity, consent, intent—and how to stay relevant in an AI-driven ecosystem.

𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿:
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘆. 𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲.

🎥 Watch the full interview, 𝘝𝘰𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘳 with 𝗗𝘄𝗮𝘆𝗻𝗲 𝗚𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲 ft. 𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗿𝗮 𝗝𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 to discover what merchants should focus on now to stay ready for 2030.

Agentic commerce is moving from concept to reality.

AI agents are beginning to search, compare, recommend and increasingly transact on behalf of consumers.

But before autonomous commerce can scale, the industry must answer some difficult questions:
→ How do we verify intent?
→ Who carries liability?
→ How do we establish trust between merchants, consumers and AI agents?
→ What does governance look like in machine-to-machine commerce?

From tokenisation and digital identity to payment orchestration, AI governance and decision intelligence, the conversation is no longer about whether agentic commerce is coming.

It's about whether we're ready for it.

𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿. 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝘂𝗽❓

One of the biggest conversations at MPE 2026 wasn't about a new technology.

It was about speed.

💥 Customer expectations are rising
💥 New payment methods keep emerging
💥 Commerce is becoming increasingly complex
💥 And the pace of change isn't slowing down

The challenge?

Merchants want frictionless experiences.
Consumers expect invisible payments.

Meanwhile, acquirers are balancing compliance, fraud, regulation and legacy infrastructure—all while enabling innovation.

So what's becoming essential?

𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀.

Because when change moves this fast, keeping up isn't about doing everything yourself.

It's about building the right ecosystem around you.

“𝘗𝘢𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘤𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘴... 𝘵𝘰 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵.”

𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘤 𝘛𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘴: 𝘌𝘹𝘦𝘤𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦
at MPE 2026, Berlin, with 𝗠𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝗮𝗹 and 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘂 𝗔𝗹𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗴𝗴, SVP, Head of Product & Solutions for Europe at Visa.

Merchant payments are entering a new phase:
→ AI-driven commerce
→ Agent-based transactions
→ Tokenised payments by default
→ Passkeys & biometric authentication
→ Stablecoins for settlement and treasury optimisation

And behind all of it:
𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆

As 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘂 𝗔𝗹𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗴𝗴 explained:
“𝘞𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘤𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 — 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦.”

That changes the role of payments entirely.

The checkout experience is becoming:
→ more intelligent
→ more seamless
→ increasingly autonomous

And merchants will increasingly need to become:
𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰-𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆.

The challenge now is balancing:
→ trust & fraud prevention
→ innovation
→ scale
→ interoperability

Because while AI is transforming commerce, fraud is evolving just as quickly.

The next wave of payments will not simply optimise transactions.
It could redefine how commerce operates.

🎥 𝗠𝗣𝗘 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗸𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗷𝗼𝗿 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 — 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁𝘆?

In conversation with 𝗗𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗱 𝗥𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹 from 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗯𝘆, one thing became very clear:

💥 Payment sovereignty is no longer theoretical in Europe
💥 Merchants are being forced to rethink their entire payment and digital commerce strategy

"𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦. 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘢 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘶𝘯. 𝘐’𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘢𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴."

Merchants are trying to balance:
✔ Global expansion
✔ Conversion optimisation
✔ Cost control
✔ Payment performance
✔ Operational simplicity

But every new payment method, provider, and orchestration layer adds another level of complexity.

👉 How do merchants prepare their payment infrastructure not just for 2026 — but for the rest of the decade?
