Written by James Shepherd | Nov 6, 2026, 9:14:07 PM

 

AI is changing the way ISOs compete, build integrations, and grow their payments businesses. James Shepherd sits down with Alex Benjamin, General Manager of the Americas at Aevi, to discuss how AI is leveling the playing field against major players like Stripe and Adyen, creating new opportunities for ISOs and ISVs, and making integrated payment solutions more accessible. They also explore the importance of merchant experience, automation, and flexible payment infrastructure in an increasingly competitive market.

Plus, Patti Murphy joins James for Today in Payments to cover Stripe's new B2B payment capabilities, AI's impact on payment integrations, the FTC and state legal action against Toast over alleged merchant fees and support issues, and the growing adoption of buy now, pay later, digital wallets, and alternative payment methods.
