    Wallet world: Your key to embedded finance.

    FTT Embedded Finance Stage (10th Nov) / 11:15 - 11:55

    Digital wallets have become a crucial gateway to the customer relationship. They’re no longer just containers for card payments, they’re morphing into dynamic platforms for identity, rewards, buy-now-pay-later, insurance, and even financial advice. This panel explores how different providers - both financial and non-financial brands are using wallet functionality to deepen engagement, build loyalty, and redefine convenience.
