Frictionless Payments | BR-DGE & Mastercard at MPE 2025

At Berlin’s MPE, Tom Voaden from BR-DGE and Brandon Trollip from Mastercard talked about how their partnership is making payments easier and secure through network tokenization. With online fraud on the rise and customer expectations higher, both companies are focusing on enabling frictionless, secure experiences—without adding more friction.

The discussion delved into why network tokens are more than a security aspect—they’re a force for driving conversion, managing lifecycle updates, and exposing unified customer views across channels. Voaden and Trollip highlighted how BR-DGE acts as a bridge layer, enabling tokenization to be made available even to merchants that must contend with complex payment ecosystems.

From one-click checkout and anti-fraud prevention to embedded payments in connected cars, the conversation demonstrated how tokenization is shaping the future of commerce. See the full conversation to learn about what’s ahead when orchestration and innovation converge.
