• Crypto-Commerce: Banking on Blockchain for B2B Payments - Editor's Note: This post was originally published July 29th, 2019 and has been updated for relevancy After significant hype with the rise of cryptocurrencies, there was a ‘Blockchain winter.’ The predictions for rapid adoption by 2020 never materialized; however, the underlying technology, Blockchain, still holds promise, especially in the B2B payments space. B2B payments have seen consistent growth for several years (40% in the US from 2014-2020). This trend is expected to continue with a CAGR of 21% from 2021-2030. With 88% of businesses believing that API technologies will affect payments the most over the next few years and 65% of companies preferring a single or integrated payments solution, the momentum could soon turn into a ‘Blockchain Spring.’ How Blockchain for B2B Payments Works Blockchain’s foundation is distributed ledger technology  (DLT). Transactions are  distributed, with records verified by a network of computers versus by one party or bank, and visible to all parties versus held in a central database. They’re also  immutable  as once recorded, they cannot be altered, reversed, or tampered with. When a buyer or seller submits payment information to the chain, a digital “block” is created and distributed to the network. Multiple computers compete to unscramble the block, and the first to successfully do so shares it with the network for verification. Verification includes confirming funds are available, sender and receiver are reputable, and the request is legitimate. Once verified, the transaction is authorized and posted to the ledger and designated parties are updated in real time. Blockchain Benefits for B2B Payments Faster Settlement Blockchain cuts central banks out of the process, dramatically speeding up settlement. Unlike banks, which can take up to five business days for cross-border transactions, the 24/7 availability of the network supports real-time to next-day fund transfer. Blockchain’s transparency and automation also save both suppliers and buyers the manual processes of phoning or emailing each other and updating their respective records in multiple systems. Frictionless Payments The ability to place one-touch orders directly from equipment and sensors on the job site, within a manufacturing plant or even operating room is an emerging opportunity in B2B. The “smart contract” property of blockchain supports automated device-to-device transactions when certain conditions are met, cutting out traditional invoicing and payment processes entirely. Integrated with payment networks and headless commerce applications, smart contracts and IoT may be the  future of replenishment  and other micro-transactions between B2B buyers and sellers. Pricing and payment terms are set into the smart contract, with buyer and seller notified of each transaction upon execution and pushed back to their respective systems of record.

Chat with an expert today to see how our flexible, composable solutions can speed up your time to market, reduce costs, and improve your customer experience. Talk with an eCommerce Expert Proactive Fraud Prevention The public, distributed ledger serves as a “single source of truth” for both buyers and suppliers. While blockchain may not eliminate the need for outside verification agencies reduces settlement risk and makes it easier to track down fraudulent activities. Prevent “False Positives” For AR and AP departments, tighter fraud controls can lead to more false positives, increasing card declines for good accounts, delays in invoice processing, and can hurt the buyer-supplier relationship. Blockchain’s network-based verification and immutable record recognizes more good transactions and fosters trust between parties. How Institutions are Already Banking on Blockchain Stablecoins A Stablecoin is a digital currency pegged to a ‘stable’ reserve asset, like the U.S. dollar. These remove the significant volatility seen in more well-known cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, which are tied to being ‘mined’ by computers. Stablecoins assuage some of the concerns over cryptocurrencies for business, though significant questions remain. Legislation remains one of the unanswered questions that will significantly impact the future of these coins. Momentum continues to build towards answering these questions. As recently as December 2021, the U.S. Congress considered the regulatory path forward. Open APIs Visa, MasterCard and Amex are in an arms race to patent and ship new blockchain payment technologies. Their open APIs such as Visa’s B2B Connect allow fintechs and other financial institutions to build custom solutions and payment integrations on top of their respective blockchain infrastructure, including smart contracts and expedited payment settlement to enhance their B2B services. The B2B Blockchain Challenge...and the Future While banks and fintech companies are wasting no time embracing Blockchain, the challenge for B2B merchants remains to be the on and off-ramps (how they can turn good old dollars into digital coins with ease and low risk). Several fintech and ACH companies are attempting to solve these issues with B2B specific offerings. We can expect that, as the blockchain market matures, banks and fintech companies will continue to open their infrastructure and APIs to third-party developers, including B2B merchants. Technology vendors may also begin to integrate blockchain technologies into their commerce solutions. Stripe, for instance, says it is still in “Early Innings,” there is no doubt the “winter” is thawing, and we will continue to watch as this space evolves.

• Elastic Path Payments Q&A with Harry Chemko - We are excited to announce Elastic Path Payments, powered by Stripe, a new addition to the Elastic Path product offering. As more and more digitally-driven brands embrace a Composable Commerce approach, we are thrilled to share that this announcement reduces the complexity of multi-vendor solutioning by pre-integrating payments. In addition, Elastic Path Payments empowers brands with best-in-class, feature-rich payments functionality to support complex checkout processes, across touchpoints. We sat down with Elastic Path co-founder & Chief Strategy Officer Harry Chemko to learn more about Elastic Path Payments. See what he had to say below. Q: What is Elastic Path Payments?  Q: Why Does This Matter for Digitally-Driven Brands? A: I think there are two key areas of impact that Elastic Path Payments will have on the how brands manage digital commerce. First, Elastic Path Payments gives brands access to the cutting-edge, API-first payments technology that they need to power seamless online checkout experiences. Features like fraud management, network-wide acceptance, support for global brands and best-in-class security ensure that brands meet customer expectations and hit growth targets. And, second, simplifying Composable Commerce. At Elastic Path we are seeing more and more interest for a Composable Commerce approach. While we are thrilled to see this momentum, we still hear that managing multiple vendors can feel complicated. To that end, we know that two-thirds of companies prefer a single payments solution over multiple best-of-breed vendors. By pre-integrating payments technology into Elastic Path, this offering eliminates the need to manage yet another vendor. Q: What Are the Benefits of Choosing Elastic Path Payments instead of Managing Payments Technology Separately from a Commerce Platform? A:  Beyond the integrated commerce and payments technology, and simplification of solution management that we just talked about, Elastic Path Payments puts customer success above all else. Unlike other Composable Commerce vendors that leave brands to manage a multi-vendor solution on their own, we focus on becoming a trusted partner in their Composable Commerce journey. One of the ways we emphasize this is with a dedicated customer success manager from Elastic Path who shares a deep knowledge of all facets of a business and can offer guidance, support, and advocate for a customer to technology partners.      From a functionality standpoint, Elastic Path Payments includes key features that enable brands to hit revenue goals. For example, automated retry logic and credential updates increase payment acceptance rates and, seamless online checkouts increase conversion rates. Q: How Does This Make it Easier for Brands to Embrace Composable Commerce?  Q: What Are the Current Trends in the Market on Payments Offerings? How Are These Addressed?  A: Two key trends that come to mind are: 1. Brands expanding into new multiple business models, geographies, and Alternate Payment Methods. In today’s world, it's crucial to give customers the payment options they would like to use, which can significantly increase conversion rates and average order values.  Interested in Learning More About Elastic Path Payments? Simplify Composable solutions with integrated, feature-rich payments technology that powers revenue-generating experiences across customer touchpoints & business models (B2C, B2B, B2B2C), all from a single commerce platform. Go to Elastic Path Payments 2. B2B2C brands, those that operate franchise or distribution models, looking to digitally transform.  With the addition of Elastic Path Payments, Elastic Path customers can manage all business models, geographies, and payments methods with built-in payments technology. In contrast, other commerce platforms often require multiple instances or different products with numerous integrations of payments solutions to operate each model and accommodate the complexity and specific needs of each one.   Q: You Mentioned a Few Features but Can You Tell us More About the Included Feature Set in Elastic Path Payments?  A:  Absolutely, I like to bucket the feature set into three groups that mirror the three significant stages of the checkout funnel. At the first stage of the funnel, you have features that support a seamless online checkout. This includes support for over 25 languages, 135 currencies, and the ability to dynamically show the payment methods most likely to improve conversion. Together these features can provide up to a 46% increase in sales after enabling local payment methods. To address the second stage of the checkout funnel, you have features related to fraud detection. Fraud detection is important to organizations as missed fraud can be very costly to brands. But, on the other hand, brands also don’t want to accidentally decline good transactions as we know this also leads to lost profits. In fact, every year businesses lose an estimated 3% of their revenue due to false declines. Since Stripe, the underlying technology of Elastic Path Payments,, has seen 90% of all the credit cards that are in use in the United States, if there is an issue with a particular credit card, there is a very good chance the network has seen it before and will accurately flag or not flag a transaction. This results in decreased false positives, increased checkout conversions, and a better customer experience overall. At the third stage of the checkout funnel you have features like network acceptance, which improves authorization rates, reliability and processing performance through a direct integration with card networks.  In addition, to features related to the three stages of the checkout funnel, Elastic Path Payments also provides best-in-class security and a centralized dashboard for real time reporting. Chat with us today to learn how your brand can benefit from Elastic Path Payments or learn more here.
