EBAday, which is coordinating the conversation on payments, is inviting all early-stage companies that have a pilot project or a working proof of concept to apply for the 2024 Fintech Zone.

The 16 finalists will receive two tickets each and an unrivaled opportunity to showcase their product to influential decision-makers, potentially expediting their company's growth within the payments sector.

Finalists in the Fintech Zone will have the chance to attend EBAday on both days, taking use of one day to present to the judges and network with over 1400 delegates at their pod located in the center of the show on the other day.

The Finextra Zone trophy will be given to the best product, and their victory will be documented in an article that is promoted to the 800,000 monthly website visitors and featured in an exclusive interview with FinextraTV.

Applications must be submitted by April 26, 2024, and applicants must be prepared to cover all costs associated with their journey to and from Lisbon.

Next generation banking, payments-as-a-service, instant payments and request to pay, identity services and fraud prevention, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), cross-border payments interoperability, trends in payments technology and fintech collaboration, and trends in liquidity and cash management practices are among the areas in which successful applicants will have innovative and disruptive products.

Geertjan van Bochove, chief financial officer and co-founder of International Payment Identity (iPiD), the Fintech Zone 2023 winner, stated: "The panel of industry experts confirmed Bank Account Validation is a top concern in the industry." It's a big triumph for us because of the impending regulations in Europe. We now have more credibility in the eyes of our senior audience, which is priceless, and we have excellent networking prospects."

Many nations, including Belgium, Estonia, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Germany, Italy, Israel, Spain, Ireland, Greece, France, Lithuania, Singapore, and Finland, have submitted applications to Fintech Zone 2024.
