Ever wondered what goes into making a blockbuster payments system?
In this episode, David M. Brear, Group CEO at 11:FS, sits down with two heavyweights in the payments world: Tracy Birdsall, Managing Director and Head of EMEA & APAC, Merchant Services Sales, at J.P. Morgan Payments, and Kristen Morrow-Greven, Vice President and Head of Global Payments at Netflix.
They dive into the systems that most people don’t notice until they break: reliability, scalability, resiliency, infrastructure, and jaw-dropping transactions-per-second numbers that keep payments seamless at scale.
Drawing on J.P. Morgan’s Payments Unbound, Volume 3, the conversation reveals how Netflix processes millions of payments globally without missing a beat keeping subscribers happy and systems running flawlessly.
