Payments & Retail Banking Strategy

Consulting

In the increasingly competitive cards and payments industry, companies need innovative and creative strategies to grow their business further and stand out from competitors. Payments products are often one of the key drivers of profitability. New products, services and delivery channels can increase revenue from credit cards, debit cards and other payment products significantly. 

Transcarta works with retail banking and cards teams to assess the current strategy, positioning, product mix and delivery channels. We then enhance work with the client to enhance the strategies or develop new products and services for the business. From new products to loyalty programs and delivery channels, new program implementation will be designed to generate revenue quickly and drive customer preference for the client’s products and services. 


Training

Our expert trainer will take you through the complexities of the payments sector by exploring the critical issues, challenges and opportunities. Starting with the frameworks and analytics that underpin the industry, participants will look at the key drivers and how to use them better to gain competitive advantage. The session will include videos that demonstrate leading practices in the payments industry, case studies that enable participants to put concepts into practice and other resources designed to enhance the learning experience. At the end of the session, participants be better positioned to compete more effectively and take advantage of the rapid developments in the industry, as well as how to look over the horizon and prepare for what’s coming next.
