Public Sector: Future Proofing Payments for People and the Public Purse
Delivering inclusive and effective public sector payments depends on a complex ecosystem: finding and engaging the people most at need, procurement organisations shaping markets and frameworks, payment solution providers designing and operating the systems that move money and value, and end-users, whose circumstances ultimately determine whether payment methods are accessible, fit for purpose and deliver the intended benefit.
The PIF AGM 2026 brings these perspectives together to explore how public sector payments can become more inclusive, efficient and future-ready, while delivering value for the public purse.
