Simply put, if you’re introducing friction into your payment processes, you’re making it harder to drive revenue and dissuading users from becoming return customers. One sector that knows this better than most is iGaming, which has to meet the demands of users around the world including mobile payments, virtual wallets, and cross-border social gaming payouts. Delivering all this in near real-time, with adequate security and reliable infrastructure, is no small feat. How are these payment systems possible? In this special edition of the ITPro Podcast, in association with Paysafe, Rory is joined by Bob Legters, chief product officer at Paysafe, to discuss the best practices for building a payments strategy – and how this can be applied to iGaming. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-itpro-podcast-1191840/episodes/special-edition-building-a-secure-payments-strategy/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-itpro-podcast-1191840/special-edition-building-a-secure-payments-strategy.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
