How do we future-proof the digital payment experience so it becomes invisible to customers—yet keep it working harder than ever for brands? Agility requires a deep understanding of how technology can simplify the customer journey without compromising security or trust. Today we’re going to talk about the future of secure digital payments, how in-app and frictionless experiences are redefining customer loyalty, and why platform providers need to take the in-app payment shift seriously. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Peter Galvin, Chief Marketing Officer at NMI. About Peter Galvin Peter is Chief Marketing Officer at NMI and is a 20-year veteran of global technology organizations, specializing in promoting innovative enterprise and Cloud-based software companies to leadership positions.
