Payment Systems

A growing consumer desire for flexible, real-time transactions catalyzes competition in the development of emerging payment systems technology—from mobile apps to virtual currencies—and drives opportunities for litigation.

The payment systems market is at an inflection point likely to be shaped by legal disputes, including SEC enforcement actions on crypto platforms, regulatory matters concerning fiduciary compliance and data privacy, antitrust and patent disputes between legacy financial providers and new fintech companies, and class action lawsuits alleging fraud. We affiliate with top payment systems experts who understand the parties, opportunities, and risks associated with this evolution.

WIT stays ahead of the curve on the legal and technical issues facing payments technology and has built a multidisciplinary expert team to address all angles of emerging payments litigation. Our payment systems experts include top academics, industry veterans, and technical subject matter authorities in banking systems, fintech, mobile digital transactions, cryptocurrencies, blockchain, and more.
