SBC Summit Americas, taking place on May 13-15, 2025 in Florida, the United States, will feature a seminal forum – the Payment Expert Summit – designed to address the ever-evolving payments landscape in the Americas, empowering stakeholders in the United State and Latin America and equipping them with the tools to understand these dynamic processes.

The side-summit is ideal for operators, payment providers, fintech leaders, complianceexperts, and firms specializing in KYC and AML. To flesh out this event, it features a focused conference agenda as well as dedicated networking spaces and, naturally, a dedicated expo floor.

Commenting on the Payment Expert Summit as part of the broader SBC Summit Americas, SBC CEO and Founder Rasmus Sojmark added:

"Payments are the backbone of player experience. Ensuring payment processes are seamless and safe is critical for trust, loyalty, and long-term growth of businesses.

With the Payment Expert Summit, we’re creating a space where the brightest minds in payments, fraud, and compliance can come together to share ideas, solve challenges, and shape the future of transactions across North and Latin America."

The Payment Expert Summit will seek to offer attendees a "hub for discovery," as SBC Events puts it, along with product exploration, relationship-building and a front-row seat to the future of financial transactions in gaming specifically.

A number of major payment and compliance companies will be in attendance, bringing cutting-edge insight into where the industry sits today and what industry stakeholders can expect. Among those attending are Actum Processing, Approvely/Gamble ID, Legitimuz, PayNearMe, Pronto Paga, SignaturePayments, StradaCarte, TransUnion, TrustlyandVixio.

To make it worth delegates’ time and effort, the Payment Expert Summit features 12 high-impact panels that address all the most pressing topics in the industry, from fraud prevention and compliance to user experience, cross-border payments, omnichannel payment systems, and what role cryptocurrencies will play in gaming in the future.

Among the spotlighted panels are: "The Payment Leaders Panel: Blocking Bad Customers While Streamlining Good Transactions," featuring participants from several high-profile sector companies, to name:

• Galina Bineva (Commercial Director, OKTO)
• Sue Page (CEOAmericas, Neosurf)

Apart from the Payment Expert Summit, SBC Summit Americas is a much larger, and more encompassing event, which will also run the Affiliate Leaders Summit, similarly focusing on the vertical-specific issues and challenges, along with the customary networking zones and exhibition spaces.

The SBC Summit Americas is only weeks away, with anyone looking to attend still able to buy a ticket on the official website.
