Payments and fraud prevention are key areas that can drive revenue and decrease your costs. For ATPS APAC 2025 we’ll be sharing the latest innovations and trends for airlines, travel companies, and OTAs in payments & fraud prevention. It is also an opportunity to connect with your industry peers – either in our closed group sessions for airline & travel fraud professionals and at our payment roundtables (taking place on the afternoon of the 19th of August.)
Here are just a few of the areas the conference will be covering:
- AI and its impact for payments (and fraud!)
- Seamless payment experiences
- Regulation & Standard
- Alternative forms of Payments Update
- Payment Personalisation
- Will AI help get the industry ahead of the fraudsters?
- Managing fraud across mobile & other platforms
