Juniper Research unveiled recently the 10 trends that are set to radically impact the fintech and payments landscape in 2024, included within its latest whitepaper.
The whitepaper found that “the fintech market is undergoing a rapid shift, with the rise of new technologies, such as Open Finance, generative AI and A2A (account-to-account) payments having a major impact on business models.”
This is combined with unprecedented competition “to be ‘top of wallet’ for customers, making the market more competitive and uncertain than ever.”

Juniper Research’s VP of Fintech Market Research, Nick Maynard, commented:
“The fintech and payments market is undergoing fundamental changes, with new payment methods and different business models threatening to completely uproot existing operations. Stakeholders must fundamentally reassess the viability of their offerings, and build ambitious roadmaps for future developments, or they will be left behind by more agile competitors.”
These trends were compiled “by Juniper Research’s expert team of financial markets analysts; cross-referencing their detailed industry knowledge against the online data platform harvest, comprising over 2.1 million fintech market statistics. Through this, industry stakeholders can navigate the ever-evolving fintech landscape and unlock advantage through intelligence.”
