We’re excited to share the Canadian Payments Innovation Report, an in-depth look at how Canada’s payments ecosystem is undergoing a generational transformation. This is the first comprehensive report focused exclusively on the Canadian payments startup landscape.
The report includes:
- A mapped database of 330+ Canadian payments startups across the value chain, with insights drawn from companies tackling issuing, acquiring, cross-border movement, orchestration, and more
- An analysis of key themes shaping the next phase of payments, including stablecoins, AI in payment operations, and contextual commerce
- An overview of the most active early-stage investors and the emerging fintech models across the Canadian market
We hope you find the report valuable and would be glad to hear your thoughts.
