The Future of Embedded Finance: How Businesses Can Stay Ahead in 2025 🚀 Embedded finance is no longer just a trend - it’s a game-changer. It’s projected to drive trillions of pounds in financial flows, redefining how businesses operate. At Railsr, we’re at the forefront of this transformation, helping businesses unlock new revenue streams, and enhancing customer experiences. Our latest blog in the Railsr newsroom, written by our Head of Legal Daryn Stilwell, explores how businesses can stay ahead by:  ▪️ Investing in customer-centric solutions: hyper-personalisation, seamless integrations, and turnkey offerings are key to this. ▪️ Navigating regulatory challenges: proactive compliance is a competitive advantage. ▪️ Harnessing technological advancements: AI, blockchain, and open banking will shape the future.

Exploring the Future of B2B Payments with Visa 🚀 Last week, members of the Railsr team had the opportunity to attend the Visa Commercial event in London, where many industry leaders joined forces to discuss the evolving payments landscape. With insightful sessions detailing the future of the payments industry, and the role of embedded finance in B2B payments, we explored how innovation is continuing to make space for new opportunities, especially for non-financial institutions. Some key takeaways… There is a growing market for virtual business payment solutions & virtual cards and this market is unlocking new vertical opportunities. Railsr is proud to be at the forefront of innovative virtual payments. While the market is still catching up post-pandemic, business investment confidence is growing, and previously untapped potential in embedded finance could drive the next wave of digital transformation. A big thank you to Visa for hosting, and to our partners for the great discussions! Louisa Murray, Erica Katsambis #embeddedfinance #B2Bpayments #digitaltransformation #Railsr #Visa 

Last Thursday, Louisa Murray, Erica Katsambis, and Melanie Davies from the Railsr Sales team attended the The Card & Payments Awards to celebrate the industry excellence seen in the Payments space last year. It was an exciting occasion, and we were delighted to be nominated with our partner Toqio, amongst such inspiring projects and companies. With 21k raised for The King's Trust, the night was a success for all the attendees. Thank you to Viktor Muhhin from our partner SteadyPay for joining our team for the night, and us at Railsr offer a huge congratulations to the winners of the evening. We are already looking forward to the next one! 🎉 #emoney #embeddedfinance #cardsasaService #bankingasaService #partnerships

Opened by Mandy Lamb, MD UK&I, I attended an informative afternoon at the Visa Commercial event at their HQ yesterday. The market outlook was not all sunny, showing we are all still playing catch up post pandemic, with our current trajectory at 2010-2019 figures. There are still some upticks, such as confidence seen through business investments adding to growth, though this has not trickled down to consumers or export growth yet. With Visa Enablers such as Flex and opportunities created by #EmbeddedFinance in B2B payments and less mature verticals, there are lots of pockets of significant untapped growth potential. I find the intersection between embedded finance and #nonfinancialservices to be the most exciting, giving emoney institutes the opportunity to drive disruptive growth, innovation and support organisations from all walks of life with their digital transformation journeys. Great to catch up with Railsr partners and thanks for the invite Visa team! Theodora Varsamis, MBA Camilla Perfect Simon Boffee Claire Dopson #baas #caas #credit #EMI #digitaltranformation

The Role of Embedded Finance in the Ever-Changing Health and Medical Industry 🏥💳✨ “Since the pandemic, more people have taken charge of their health, realising the strain on the NHS means they can’t solely rely on government services” says Erica Katsambis VP Partnerships, Railsr. She adds, “This has left a huge chunk of the population that are underserved in the health care sector” continuing “providing access to financial products by embedding them directly into healthtech apps is a trend  on the rise.” For companies such as Boots UK, Superdrug, ZOE, Thriva, 23andMe & Doctor Care Anywhere, the inclusion of branded embedded financial products is the next natural development. Covered in the article published by HIT Consultant Media, we begin to understand how embedded finance can revolutionise this industry. Written by one of our key front-end partners AAZZUR, with thoughts from our own Erica Katsambis, VP Partnerships we learn about how we are collectively approaching this vertical, which can benefit consumers and under-served communities.

🚀 Railsr Pilot Program 🚀 Last year, Railsr announced our new Pilot Program for established brands. We recognise that launching a company branded wallet or card program is a high involvement decision, particularly for companies where financial products aren’t your bread and butter! If you are interested in stepping into the world of embedded finance with no prior experience, work with the Railsr team to develop and personalise a branded demo, we will build your proof of concept in our test environment and launch an MVP in our production environment using real money.

Last Thursday, we were delighted to host an intimate networking event at the London Railsr office alongside Debbie Lotz and Women Lifting Women. This initiative creates a supportive space for women to connect, inspire and uplift each other and the younger generation - and we were honoured to be a part of it. This evening featured two remarkable women: Pamela Whitby, who recently launched her new media company Delve in Media, and Dr. Maame Nikabs, who recently published her debut book, Speak Up, Speak Out. It was wonderful to hear from the two of them about their careers and what they have learnt along the way - congratulations to both of them! Thank you to Debbie for leading this wonderful initiative, and to everyone who joined us. Us at Railsr look forward to even more evenings like this! #WomenLiftingWomen #EmpoweringWomen #Community #Collaboration
