Payment Orchestrator BR-DGE Demystifies Payments for Merchants and Payment Providers with New Whitepaper

BR-DGE, the breakthrough payment orchestration provider, has today launched ‘How to Keep Your Customers in a Multi-Acquirer World’ – an exclusive whitepaper offering practical insights and advice to merchants and payments providers, centred around the evolved merchant payment acceptance landscape. The way that businesses handle payments has changed significantly since the days of only offering simple card transactions, with today’s merchants needing to support an array of multiple payment methods, and their payment partners needing to enhance their service offerings if they are to remain competitive. BR-DGE’s new whitepaper addresses the complexity of the current payments landscape to ensure that merchants, acquirers, PSPs, ISVs and other ecosystem players understand and have a plan for exactly how they can maximise their payments offering for customers. The whitepaper also explores what payment orchestration really is, and why it is quickly becoming a must-have for successful businesses. Specifically, ‘How to Keep Your Customers in a Multi-Acquirer World’ unveils:

• The benefits and challenges posed by multi-acquirer setups – from better flexibility to fragmented systems and higher costs
• How a payment orchestration platform can simplify payment systems connectivity to help businesses juggle multiple providers with ease

Perspectives on multi-acquirer environments from industry leaders including:

• Mastercard
• PSE Consulting, the payments consultancy
• Flagship Advisory Partners, a specialised advisory boutique focused on payments and fintech
• Computop, a payment service provider
