Iconic settings. Insightful speakers. Energizing company. Thrive was a celebration of collaboration and innovation, uniting our global customers to share knowledge and forge meaningful connections. Here are some of the highlights that made Thrive unforgettable 📸 #LiveFromThrive #WhereTheWorldChecksOut

🎤 I KEYNOTED! 🎤 (That’s a verb now, right?!) #livefromthrive Thank you to the lovely Checkout.com team, to the folks behind the scenes to make Thrive Barcelona happen, and to my fellow attendees. It was so great to meet you! (Shout out to CMO Rory O'Neill - for the lively and informative presentation on global consumer behavior - photo included below!) 🤓👍 To my fellow United Statesians: Have you heard of Padel (last photo)?? It’s the latest sports craze in Spain and it looks fun as heck! Let’s play!

#livefromthrive And so it's over, spending three days with brilliant people always makes you think and reflect. Here are some reflections from Thrive, Checkout.coms annual customer event. 💠 Modularity matters - experts in the payments field need configurable services based on their need. There is no such thing as a single provider with a single platform. You must configure your payments infrastructure according to your needs, and your PSP must be modular. Lily Varon from Forrester puts this way better than me. ◾ Performance at speed is imperative - yes acceptance rate is the hero KPI, but there's just so many other services that have to happen in 336ms Mariano Albera 🔢 Data is our secret weapon - in a way, just like marketing embracing digital and proving impact on growth, payments professionals have empirical data at their fingertips and have currency to drive change in their organisations. Antoine Nougué and his team can help you here. Seize it! 💰 Connecting payment flows to cash management and money flows gives you access to your money faster. Save and/or spend in real time using the funds that are driven by payments. Perhaps in time we will talk about Free Payment Flows or Payments Capital Meron Colbeci Nirupam Sinha ✒ PSD3 and upcoming regulation, will challenge the payments world - yet we have to remember that, everyone in the ecosystem wants consumer protection so everybody feels safe spending online Emilie Mathieu 🔶 Payments careers offer people the ability to be at a wonderful intersection of technology (machine learning, AI, data science); customer experience (the part of the customer journey that really matters) and the ability to show impact on revenue, profit and ultimately cash. Guillaume Pousaz Jenny Hadlow Adel N. And when you're not spending time talking payments, keep your mind and body fit with Padel Ale Galán or the Fintech running club Marcel van Oost Thank you Rachel Casey Beth Graham Zlatka Deliagova Iga Kowalik Sabile Haiti Daniela R. Jessica Hashemi Vanessa Ellis Dr Kevin Stanley-Dowd Michael Horrocks Vanessa Rossi for being onsite and the many others for your amazing work. We all do Thrive! We are Checkout.com and we are where the world checks out
