FinanceX is an official Media Partner to the 26th NextGen Payments and RegTech Forum

FinanceX Magazine is delighted to announce its media partnership with the 26th NextGen Payments & RegTech Forum, taking place on 10 November 2026 at the W Hotel in Austin, Texas, USA. Organised by QUBE Events, this one-day forum convenes payments, compliance and RegTech leaders from across the United States to examine the technologies and regulations reshaping the North American payments ecosystem.

Building on the momentum of the 2025 Austin edition, the 2026 forum explores instant and account-to-account payments (FedNow and RTP), digital wallets, open banking, BNPL, embedded finance, crypto, CBDCs and tokenised money. A dedicated track addresses AI and agentic AI in payments and RegTech, from fraud and financial-crime detection to compliance workflows, alongside the governance, explainability and human oversight these systems demand. The evolving US regulatory landscape, including AML, sanctions, consumer protection and data access under Section 1033, features throughout the agenda.

The programme brings together a prestigious line-up of more than 50 speakers. Confirmed contributors include Mark Majeske, Senior Vice President of Faster Payments at Alacriti; Vinay Nilakantan, Head of Product at Wise; Urvashi Nain, Director of Product Management at Visa; and Gail Burgos, CEO at PayTech Women, with additional voices from Citi, Ripple, Yuno, U.S. Bank and Charles Schwab.

Designed for senior decision-makers across banks, credit unions, fintechs, payment processors, card networks, merchants, RegTech providers and regulatory bodies, the forum is expected to gather over 400 industry leaders representing more than 100 companies for a day of keynotes, panels, fireside chats and pre-qualified one-to-one meetings.
