In the quest to best demonstrate the real-world challenges of everyday transactions, Money20/20 and Fintech Finance, once again, put regional financial systems to the test. This time we took on Southeast Asia.
Starting in Hong Kong on 10th March with final destination as the Money20/20 keynote stage at the Marina Bay Sands hotel, our 5 intrepid contenders had one goal: to be crowned the Payments Race Champion.
Sound easy, right? Well, this is the catch: Each racer was only allowed to use a single form of payment for the duration of the race to pay for their travel and expenses.
