Welcome to summer conference junkies! After a busy Q2, the conference schedule is quiet until September. This is a great time to lock in lower prices for your fall calender, with many early-bird prices still in effect.

To help your planning, here is our curated list of the best global payments industry events, conferences, and trade shows for 2025. These are the largest events in the financial services industry for payments and card technologists, program managers, marketers, developers, and C-Suite executives at legacy financial institutions, upstart payments firms, and card issuers.

Event details are current at the time of publication but always check event websites for the latest. Since prices tend to rise as the event draws closer, it’s best to grab tickets as soon as you gain approval to attend. Registering even 30 days in advance can save $500 to $1,000 per ticket.
