The Payments Power 50 celebrates a dynamic mix of established players and rising disruptors, each demonstrating bold leadership, technological advancement, and industry-wide influence. Joining them are 10 standout industry experts, whose contributions have shaped the evolution of payments.

“The Payments Power 50 is designed to challenge the status quo, provoke discussion, and highlight those who are truly shaping the future of payments,” said Jason Williams, CEO of The Power 50. “I am extremely proud of the support we have had from the industry and the sheer volume of entries we received. This first year’s list reflects the impressive talent and ambition that continues to drive the industry forward.”

“Being part of the first Payments Power 50 is a recognition of our commitment to continuously innovate. We believe fintech is a force for good and are proud to be recognised amongst the leaders who drive the growth of the digital economy,” Iana Dimitrova, CEO at OpenPayd said.
