This year’s Money20/20 Europe brought together some of the most influential voices in payments to explore where the industry is headed and the big takeaway was clear: staying focused matters more than ever. From the rise of composable payment stacks to the growing urgency around responsible AI adoption, the message was consistent across panels and conversations: innovation should be grounded in purpose. Startups and scaleups were encouraged to stick to their core, merchants demanded more control over their payments infrastructure, and customer success was highlighted as non-negotiable. These are themes we’ve built into Silverflow’s DNA - and it was energizing to hear them echoed at every turn.

It was also a big week for the Silverflow brand. We officially announced our partnership with Bolt - drawing emphasis to our growing role in enabling modern, scalable acquiring infrastructure. An interview with our Co-founder, Anne Willem de Vries, and Bolt’s Group Product Manager, Kaspar Loog, is also coming soon - stay tuned! Our CCO, Nigel Thacker, sat down with Financial IT to discuss how Silverflow is helping both banks and fintechs modernize card acquiring with a cloud-native, real-time platform. Check out the full interview here. Our co-founder, Robert Kraal, also recorded a podcast with c-suite podcast, where he dove into topics such as the biggest drivers behind embedded finance adoption and how to cut through the noise in a crowded embedded payments space. Keep an eye out for this episode - it promises great insights on global fintech collaboration and the evolving payments landscape.

From our high-traffic booth to packed Silverflow events, we had an incredible few days on the ground. Our giveaways were a crowd-pleaser (yes, socks and chocolate still win hearts), and we hit a strike with our casual bowling night. The energy, engagement, and quality of conversations throughout the week left us optimistic and inspired. Beyond the meetings and meetups, our team also joined the vibrant Money20/20 Street Fest, adding some fun and late-night energy to the experience. We're walking away from this year’s Money 20/20 Amsterdam with stronger relationships, fresh ideas, and a clear signal that Silverflow is on the right path.
