AI is transforming how we work, shop, and pay. And in a world where agents make purchases on our behalf, trust matters more than ever. That’s why we’re proud to expand our work with Google to support the Agent Payments Protocol (AP2). With technology already powering commerce across wallets, browsers, and AI-driven platforms, Affirm is built for agentic commerce — combining real-time approvals with transparent, pay-over-time options consumers can trust. 📣 Here’s what Stavan Parikh, VP/GM of Payments at Google, said about our work together: "For years, we’ve been working with Affirm to help deliver secure, seamless, and innovative payment experiences. Their contributions to shape Agent Payments Protocol exemplify the critical cross-industry collaboration needed to build open, secure, and scalable frameworks to enable the future of commerce."

Why ACH Modernization Can’t Wait Official Link: https://lnkd.in/guXFBtTQ As digital payments evolve at lightning speed, banks are under growing pressure to upgrade their aging ACH systems. A recent paper sheds light on what’s really at stake, and why 62% of banking execs say they’ve already started the transition. The reality? Legacy ACH systems simply weren’t built for today’s demands. Manual workarounds, batch processing delays, and limited scalability are holding many institutions back. What’s changing: - Multi-rail support for all kinds of payment flows - Real-time capabilities to match customer expectations - ISO 20022 compliance for better data clarity and interoperability The takeaway is clear: a phased approach to modernization isn’t just smart, it’s how banks can stay relevant, resilient, and responsive in a real-time world.
