“The DRF is committed to providing merchants educational and networking opportunities so they can better understand industry challenges such as fraud and alternative payments,” said Barbara Hvasta, DRF board member.

According to Josh Karoly, Senior Manager of Global Payments at NETFLIX and a DRF board member, “I have not found a better forum for merchants doing Card Not Present transactions to come together to face today’s payments challenges, especially all in a non-salesy environment.

In addition to educational and networking opportunities, attendees will be the first to see the updated Global Guide to Alternative Payments from Worldpay. This guide is an expansion of their original market research on the rapidly, evolving use of alternative payments, as well as key global trends affecting merchants across the full range of available payment types. Only DRF 2015 attendees will see the results ahead of the report’s September 2015 release date.
