Branded Currency:
Using Digital Gift Cards as a GameChanging Marketing Tool
Fundamental Level
10:00–11:00 am
Today’s shopper is rarely without a mobile device, making
it possible for consumers to browse, research or buy
products any time, any place. In this new omni-channel
world, where the lines between retail channels are blurred,
digital gift cards are no longer just gift cards, but rather
a form of retailer currency. Learn about the concept of
branded currency and how it can be used to increase online,
mobile and in-store sales, acquire new customers and drive
loyalty. Attendees should come prepared to share a mobile
marketing promotion they’ve seen, and describe how it
leverages branded currency.

Change in a Challenging Environment
Intermediate Level
11:15 am–12:15 pm

climate, having been overshadowed by heightened
investments in “table stakes” technology to achieve
regulatory compliance and to maintain the necessary
risk profile. Challenging, yes... but not impossible. Learn
breakthrough secrets for understanding unmet customer
needs, how to create an innovation framework that works,
and how by being armed with the right strategy and
technology, financial institutions can become “disruptors.”

The New Reality for Global
Bank-to-Bank Transfers
Intermediate Level
1:30–2:30 pm
Today’s global bank networks are built on traditional
payment infrastructures that require reserves, high fees, and
multiple days to settle transactions cross border. An Internet
protocol can enable financial institutions to securely transfer
funds in any currency in real-time. Financial institutions,
money transmitters and clearing houses can use this
as a settlement technology to facilitate straight through
processing and increase access to liquidity.
Participants in this session hear early adopters explain how
they are using Ripple and how it has already impacted their
businesses. Take part in a series of real-time multi-currency
transfers between financial institutions in different countries
live on stage using physical terminals, screen projection, and
audience input. Learn best practices for how to evaluate and
then deploy other new payment technologies.

Enabling Digital Payments
When Cash is King
Intermediate Level
4:30–5:30 pm
Despite the ever-increasing launch of new digital payment
technologies, cash remains king. The U.S. has twice as
much cash in circulation than any other Western economy.
Much of this is driven by the overlap of the underbanked
and cash-preferred customers. The disconnect lies in the
same group of consumers, which is comprised of individuals
who are technology savvy and tend to rely heavily on
smartphones. How then do we bridge this seemingly new
digital divide for finance? Speakers in this session lead
interactive demos of cash in/cash out solutions. Participants
learn how cash customers can drive continued innovation
and raise the volume of overall transactions in the digital
economy. Understand the role and best practices for cash
in/cash out networks, and which customer segments are
most likely to be early adopters.

Don’t Feed After Midnight: Are Payments
Systems Like Gremlins?
Advanced Level
9:15–10:15 am
With the increasing number of payments systems and
complexity of interactions, is it possible to consolidate
or simplify these structures? Moreover, how do these
systems differ from each other and from traditional
payments systems? A better understanding of what would
be necessary to consolidate them or whether they should
coexist is fruit for a group discussion and interactive
dialogue that involves case studies and statistics.
Power Play: What Does the Political
Landscape Mean for Payments?
Advanced Level
11:15 am–12:15 pm
The November mid-term election saw the Republican
party gain control of Congress, and legislative priorities are
shifting. Government relations staff from several prominent
banking trade groups explore the potential implications of
a Republican power play on high-risk origination, repealing
elements of Dodd-Frank and how federal regulatory priorities
may be effected by the results of November’s mid-term
elections. Hear about policy implications for financial
institutions and learn how to prepare for policy changes.

Group Discussion
Advanced Level
11:15 am–12:15 pm
This session features a facilitated group discussion about
the drive for near real-time business payments. Factors
considered are uses/demand for real-time payments,
actual international deployments, risk/regulatory mitigants,
benefits for end-users and participants, possible key
industry players’ reluctance, provider roles, provider
differentiation opportunities, and expected costs/benefits.
Attendees collaborate on a specific aspect and present
their recommendations to the whole group. Emphasis is
on creatively resolving issues—not industry hurdles—to
identify ways to leapfrog current processes and approaches.

Making Sense of the Speed of Change in
Payments Today
Digital Payments
Intermediate Level
2:30–3:30 pm
Financial institutions have traditionally been at the center
of payments across the globe, but the amount and speed
of change during the last decade, and even the last year,
have left many financial institutions and payments providers
reeling as they try to contend with onrushing technology
that has changed the landscape. As the pace of change
continues to accelerate and our increasingly connected
world continues to evolve, the ecosystem and players
within will need to continue to adapt and develop faster
than ever. Payment instruments and innovations such as
wallets, mobile applications, and digital currencies, are
all disrupting the traditional payments ecosystem, further
complicating the value chain are new and non-traditional
entrants. This presentation strives to divine the bottom-line
impact of the volume and pace of payments change we’re
all experiencing.
Advanced Level
9:45–10:45 am
The “Internet of things” is an alluring phrase in the world
of watches, TVs and fitness devices; but for payments
professionals, issues of compliance, consumer demand
and monetization deliver equal levels of opportunity
and complexity. Consumers love their smartphones, but
have been slow to embrace digital payments and other
technologies. An Aquity Group study reveals the growing
adoption of the Internet of Things (IofT). Consumers will
increasingly consume smart technologies, wearables and
other products, and incorporate this consumption into their
everyday lives. The road signs are clear; payment solutions
need to lead the charge in mobile and digital solutions for
the IofT consumer and their increased consumption of smart
products, while steering to compliance and profitability. In
this session, attendees get the answers they need to create
their roadmap for payments solutions addressing consumer
demands and digital access points.
How far-reaching is the change? How permanent is the
change? How should financial institutions and payments
providers respond?

Financial Institutions: In a Prime Position
to Create a New Digital Ecosystem
Fighting Fire with Fire:
How One Bank Decided to Stay Relevant
with Real-Time Transfers
Intermediate Level
11:00 am–12:00 pm
The evolution of online, mobile and social commerce is
transforming how consumers engage with the companies
they choose to do business with. This new digital commerce
world creates opportunities for companies to forge deeper
relationships with customers, but it also creates new
challenges. In the midst of all this change, one constant has
remained. Financial institutions are still in the middle of
every type of commerce transaction. This fact puts financial
institutions in a unique position of strength to be the
engines that power the new digital environment. Learn why
financial institutions are primed to go from being static and
transactional to being an open and engaging ecosystem,
and what it means to you.
Advanced Level
4:30–5:30 pm
Recent innovations from Bitcoin and PayPal are disrupting
traditional banking services. Combined with security
breaches, the EMV liability shift, and mobile payments
regulation, the weaknesses and limitations of existing
payment architectures have never been more visible or
frustrating. Speakers in this session discuss how their
partnership combats the uncertainty caused by these
shifting forces. In this interactive panel, attendees learn
the considerations and business case behind this alliance
through a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges and
opportunities of real-time transfers. A live demonstration of

The Real Cost of Card Decisioning
Strategies
Intermediate Level
10:00–11:00 am
The broad adoption of EMV is set to change card decisioning
strategies at institutions across the country. To effectively
assess POS and CNP transactions, different stakeholders will
need to understand how changes in the payment ecosystem

The EMV Journey Today—Perspectives
from Risk Managers
Intermediate Level
11:15 am–12:15 pm
Liability shift. Executive order. Card compromise. These
are just a few of the drivers for EMV migration in the U.S.
market today. But this migration means more than simply
replacing cards and upgrading systems. Many have taken this
opportunity to evaluate, design, and begin implementation
of broader fraud management and card usage strategies.
This panel discussion takes the current pulse of senior risk
managers from the card issuing industry: How are strategies
evolving with respect to EMV and CNP? How have novel or
niche technology solutions impacted your trajectory? Where
is this movement going beyond the chip?
understanding card payments becomes difficult and
cumbersome. Participants in this session gain an outline
of a revenue control framework to help understand and
implement a strategy to reduce the cost of credit/debit card
payments, and a framework to comprehend and report the
impact of interchange changes to their management.
Anand Goel
Chief Executive Officer, Optimized Payments Consulting, Inc.
Tokenization & Consumer Authentication
Evolution in the Payments Ecosystem
Advanced Level
1:30–2:30 pm
Financial institutions continue to explore the idea of
tokenization. Tokenization substitutes a limited-use random
number, or digital token, for the customer’s account number
during the transaction. Assessing the cost benefit analysis is
an ongoing challenge. Participants in this session hear about
several use cases and leave with an understanding of the value
proposition within the financial institution payments stream.

B2B spending. Learn salient ways to address needs of both
the business and their customers using traditional credit
products to provide greater sources of funding.

Payment Card Data Breaches—How Does
the Consumer Respond?
Advanced Level
9:45–10:45 am
Card data breaches unfortunately continue to occur and
dominate the headlines. It is crucial to examine how
consumers respond when a data breach occurs. Lightspeed
Research has been able to track how consumers change their
behavior in the wake of card data breaches. This session
illuminates how consumers have reacted and responded to
specific card data breaches, and provides insight into actions
that card issuers can take to help mitigate consumer fears.
Joel Stanton
Senior Research Manager, Lightspeed Research, Inc.
Reducing the Cardholder Data Footprint
Intermediate Level
11:00 am–12:00 pm
Building robust security into business processes, systems
and technologies alone is not enough to protect sensitive
payment data. Minimizing the exposure of cardholder data by
reducing the need or ability to store or transmit it is critical in
making merchants and other entities less attractive targets for
criminals and securing the future of payments. Participants in
this session learn about the state of payment security, receive
updates on the latest PCI standards and solutions, and take
away knowledge on how organizations can leverage these
resources as part of a layered approach to minimize risk to
card data and reduce PCI DSS scope.

Small Biz Payroll: New Opportunities
Online and Mobile
Intermediate Level
10:00–11:00 am
In days past, ACH payroll was available mostly to large
corporates with the technical know-how and large ERP
applications in house. Small- and mid-sized businesses
were left to work with payroll and accounting companies
and frequently resisted due to associated costs. Online
banking delivered ACH to clients, but not true payroll
processing like taxes and filings. Small- and mid-sized
businesses represent a huge growth opportunity and these
clients are increasingly demanding capabilities like full
service online and mobile payroll through their trusted
institution. Learn how the payroll landscape is changing and
what it means for bank-branded payroll solutions. Hear how
a financial institution and payroll provider are leveraging the

Mobile Needs for Small Business
Owners Today
Intermediate Level
4:30–5:30 pm
Small business owners are putting more of their core
B2B expenses or capital investments on their cards,
to the tune of millions of dollars per year. Greater B2B
spending with cards means owners need help reconciling
expenses. As 80 percent of small businesses say they rely
on their smartphones to run their businesses, see and
hear how they can leverage their devices to snap photos
of receipts and seamlessly sync business card expenses
with QuickBooks, alleviating end-of-month expense receipt

Unintended Consequences:
The ACA EFT Mandate & Proliferation of
DDA Information across Non-Financial
Institutions
Intermediate Level
9:15–10:15 am
Across all industries, payment credentials (card and DDA)
are being stored by an increasing number of non-bank
service providers. In healthcare, health plans are now
required to be able to pay providers via an ACH transaction.
This results in many health plans setting goals to shift a
majority of their provider payments to ACH. As adoption
increases and provider DDAs’ proliferate across multiple
health plans, it brings to light questions regarding the
safety and soundness of payment-related data being
held outside of the financial services industry. Are both
financial institutions and health plans prepared to take on
the incremental risk that arises from health plans holding
payment-related data? Presenters share why financial
institutions should be concerned by the proliferation of DDA
information outside of the financial services industry, show

Escape Velocity: How to Accelerate
Adoption of Electronic B2B Payments
by Addressing Critical Remittance
Challenges
Intermediate Level
9:45–10:45 am
Many organizations are in the process of converting paperbased B2B payments from check to ACH or card. While
the needle is moving on the payables side of the equation,
the receivers of these transactions are experiencing
significant challenges as the critical remittance information
historically provided by check payments is often absent or
delivered inconsistently, making the proper application of
funds a time consuming, inefficient process. For additional
growth in B2B payments in the ACH Network to occur, this
major impediment needs to be addressed. In this session,

11:00 am–12:00 pm
In August 2014, NACHA’s voting membership voted to
approve two new amendments to the NACHA Operating
Rules to help reduce the incidence of exceptions and returns
for ACH transactions. These separate but complementary
changes work together to mitigate risk and further improve
overall ACH Network quality, to benefit consumers,
businesses, governments and financial institutions that
move money via ACH. Several components of the ACH
Network Risk and Enforcement Rule went into effect in
January 2015, while the remaining elements take effect this
September. The ACH Network Quality Rule goes into effect
in October 2016, and institutes an unauthorized entry fee
as an incentive for ODFIs to implement processes and tools
with their Originators to reduce the number unauthorized
transactions. Learn what is being implemented and what it
means to your organization.

Using the Device in Multi-Layered
Authentication
Intermediate Level
10:00–11:00 am
Card issuers decline more than $40 billion in CNP
transactions per year, resulting in lost revenue and
reduced customer goodwill. Alienating good customers,
and driving them to use other cards are two side effects.
Furthermore, increasing tension between merchants and
issuers encourages the latter to favor alternative payment
schemes. While the majority of these transactions are good,
issuers today don’t have sufficient information to approve
them. Learn how a consumer’s mobile device history can be
leveraged to address this problem by enabling merchants to
obtain the needed approval from issuers.

9:45–10:45 am
Payroll providers are not immune from heightened
regulatory scrutiny on third-parties. Perhaps because of the
critical role they play, this attention is not surprising in the
current environment. However, the regulatory landscape is
inconsistent across jurisdictions and does not effectively
take into consideration aspects that are unique to this type
of provider. Speakers in this session address the nuanced
aspects of the payroll service provider arena, including
customer vetting and risk management best practices,
and how regulatory shortcomings are impacting business
models and decisioning. Learn what this means not only
to those who are providing payroll services, but also to
the companies that are their clients and the financial
institutions that are their business partners.
Exploring Third-Party Sender
Registration
Intermediate Level
9:45–10:45 am
Third parties play an important and growing role in the
ACH Network as they enable others to efficiently utilize
and benefit from ACH payments. However, as Third-Party
Sender relationships in particular grow increasingly more
complex, there exists the potential for greater risk as
well as additional regulatory scrutiny. Understanding the
complex and often layered roles and responsibilities, as well
as the associated risks, and performing appropriate due
diligence are paramount for financial institutions. As part
of its continued efforts to foster greater clarity and deliver
a range of additional tools and measures to help financial
institutions and mitigate risk, NACHA is exploring mandatory,
rules-based Third-Party Sender registration. The intent of
the undertaking is to provide greater transparency into the
activities of Third-Party Senders and assist ODFIs with due
diligence and ongoing monitoring of these relationships.

will real-time displace existing payments, and what is the net
impact? Who pays for real-time payments: sender vs. receiver,
business vs. consumer? Is the business case balanced?
