At Payments Unleashed in London, Thomas Warsop, CEO of ACI Worldwide, discussed the future of payments in an interview with FinextraTV. He said the industry tends to focus on novel concepts, or the "shiny new toy," but noted that execution is more difficult than conceptualization, as reality introduces challenges that are not apparent in planning. Warsop stated that organizations must bridge the gap between ideas and practical implementation, emphasizing that payments are unforgiving and require reliable execution. Warsop also addressed trust in the payments industry, particularly regarding agentic commerce, where AI agents act on behalf of users. He said trust is essential for moving money and cited a study commissioned by ACI that examined consumer attitudes toward agentic commerce. Warsop noted that the current level of trust is low and suggested that increasing it will require time, experience, and trial and error.
