Event Details

Underwriting and merchant monitoring look different when you’re a Payment Facilitator, and those differences matter. In this fireside chat, two experienced PayFac leaders share how approaches to onboarding, risk assessment, and ongoing monitoring diverge from traditional models, and why those distinctions are essential to managing portfolio health at scale.

The conversation will explore best practices, practical frameworks, and the operational SOPs that support fast growth without sacrificing oversight. Attendees should bring their questions as we explore this topic together. No matter your role or relationship to a PayFac, this webinar will offer a valuable inside look at what makes PayFac risk management truly unique.
