She said: "This is time to focus outward, on the customer and on innovation. Merchants across this region need to get ready to service customers through contactless payment methods that are secure and trust worthy. The goal should be to leverage all existing payment connections and bring them to ecommerce and mobile strategy. When adopting mobile strategy, merchants should be aware that mobile is not just about payments, but includes more comprehensive solutions such as mobile commerce, promotion coupons, loyalty solutions, self-scanning and self-checkout provisions and so forth".

Cards and Payments Middle Eastprovides a platform in the Middle East for the biggest stakeholders in the cards and payments, ecommerce and ID industries to explore ways to benefit from this rapidly growing market.In addition, the open forum provides fantastic networking opportunities for professionals across industries to identify solution providers and partners in the region."
