Business Banking in the 21st Century with Clayton Weir of FI.SPAN
It’s time for another edition of PayPod: The Payments Industry Podcast! This episode going to be talking about the future of banks, including mid-market and larger banks… and their relationship to their business banking customers. Specifically, diving in to the question of whether the future of business banking is going to be centered around a company’s bank relationship, or whether upstart FinTechs companies will continue to displace banks in the mindshare for servicing business clients financial needs.
Joining Scott on the show is Clayton Weir, co-founder of FI.SPAN, a company that helps banks preserve and grow their business client relationships by enabling them to offer more robust and better integrated financial services. To put it more simply… it’s similar to Zapier, but for banks. Listen in for his great insight!

The convergence of the banking and accounting experiences is inevitable. Many payments and cash management activities, which today are conducted via online banking, will gradually migrate to accounting applications, reducing paperwork and streamlining business processes for clients.
