In this episode of The Insights Podcast, host Jack Robertson sits down with Marco Chardi, Senior Director of Market and Competitor Research at Worldpay, to explore the findings from Worldpay's Global Payments Report 2025. Together, they unpack what the data tells us about the rapid rise of digital payments, the growing influence of mobile as the default commerce platform, and how account-to-account systems like Pix and UPI are reshaping real-time money movement. Marco Chardi also discusses why cards remain more resilient than expected, and what the ongoing role of cash tells us about global payment preferences. With insights from 40 key markets, this episode offers a clear view of where payments are heading and what it means for the businesses shaping them.
