In today´s episode we are delighted to welcome Cornelia Schwertner. She is Head of Regulation at figo where she deals with issues regarding the implementation of the PSD2 and the so-called RTS SCA.

RTS, Screen Scraping and BILD headlines. This is what it´s all about:

What exactly are “RTS SCA and Secure Communication under PSD2”? What is Screen Scraping and how are RTS linked to it? Why should an APIs provider deal with them regarding payment transactions? Does the platform need permission, in order to ask their customer to provide me with their bank´s payment details /PSP? Does FinTech need permission, if they want to offer their customers aggregated account details in the form of an app? If so, are there any alternatives to avoid this? And how can companies like figo help such players?

Should a worried consumer really rely on the sensational headlines of a German tabloid with a broad reach and fear for their bank details? Should consumers quickly withdraw all their money and store it under their mattress now? Or are sensational headlines like this missing the heart of the matter and there is no point in worrying?

I discussed these points and more, including what else we have to expect regarding RTS with Cornelia in our new Episode 15 of PayTechTalk. Enjoy!
