Deep Dive: Navigating the Changing Payments Landscape

Welcome to the second installment of our Deep Dive video series! In this episode, our President & CEO Brandie Thacker, AAP, CAE, shares her perspective on how financial institutions can adapt and lead in a rapidly changing payments environment.

  • Why it matters: in today’s ever-evolving world of payments, staying ahead of fraud, regulation and risk is key to protecting your institution and maintaining compliance.

Performing Detective Work on Debit Card Disputes

Debit card disputes aren’t solved on instinct; they’re cracked with clues. To uncover the facts, you’ll have to channel your inner detective, follow the trail of evidence and use Regulation E.

  • Why it matters: You’re not just processing paperwork — you’re conducting a formal investigation. Missing a step risks liability, reputational damage or mishandling a legitimate claim. Regulation E expects accuracy, evidence and consistency.

Significant Third-Party Sender Audit Findings in 2024

As the ACH Network grows, many Third-Party Senders (TPSs) and Third-Party Service Providers (TPSPs) are stepping in, yet common compliance gaps continue to surface in our Advisory Team’s audits.

  • Why it matters: being able to identify frequent ACH compliance gaps in TPS relationships can help your company proactively address risks, strengthen oversight and ensure audit readiness.
