Payment introducers are hurting the industry!
These "introducers" are not doing you a favor—they’re cashing in on secret commissions while putting your business at risk. The bigger issue is accountability—because there is none. There incentive to match businesses with the right provider: who pay the most.
Your business, your money, and your ability to operate are on the line.
This approach hurts everyone—the Providers, the Business, and the Industry!
Payment and banking must be handled by educated professionals who understand compliance, risk management, and long-term business strategy—not by brokers looking for a quick payday.
Businesses that ignore this reality will learn the hard way. And by then, it will already be too late.

"Need a PSP? A new bank account? We’ll open it for you—completely FREE! Contact us today." It’s a tempting offer.
Folks, we've built probably the first AI-Agent Store for Fintechs.
Making it easy to go from selection to deployment, like a Shopify checkout.
https://useorin.com/ai-agent-store 🎈
It’s a secure, fast, and efficient way for you to get Support AI Agents.
We basically ripped apart the entire old way of taking months for data setup, model training, and integration deployment to have AI Agents working for you.
In this new way, you just do things in a few clicks
1/ Browse AI Agents in our store for 50+ Fintech use cases – already preloaded with datasets and trained on thousands of customer support scenarios.
2/ Customize it with a few options – your customer traffic, support language and AI-model
3/ Checkout to pay.
In a 20-min session we embed this AI Agent on your web portal.
And that’s it.
So, many months of effort, execution plans, coordination with different teams – all collapsed to a few steps.
I'm not diving into all the AI technical prowess and deep Fintech use cases we've built under the hood.
We’ve been developing this for a few months at Orin, but coincidentally, YCombinator's call to startups has AI Agent Store as the first on their list.
When you check it out, I bet you’ll have a strong opinion.
Either way let me know :)

Another powerful report from FIS on global payments. This is a 156-report that gives you global payments trends, key insights, and other important ecosystem information.
The payments space continues to evolve with super apps, CBDCs, embedded finance, evolution of real-time payments, banking the unbanked, and more...
Check out the report and use it as a reference guide for what's happening and what's coming in payments.
I want to thank Ahmed Refaie Abdo from DSRPTD in the UAE for sharing it with me.
What are your thoughts? Steven Wasserman, Mario Cohen, Jaroslaw Sarwa, Angel Lorente, Carlos M. Mendes , Fabian Lehner , Elena Kozhemyakina , Jaroslaw Sarwa , Adam Ull , Sefa Bicer , Shafique Ibrahim
