Digital payments.  Without them, the global economy would grind to a halt.  Hundreds of trillions of dollars are flowing each year between payers and payees: salaries being deposited, goods being purchased, and wealth being shared between friends and families.  And yet, how much do we typically know about the participants, processes, and underlying infrastructure that makes this critical flow possible?  This primer will support a deeper understanding of the types of digital payments, how they are used, what makes them possible, and key trends impacting this dynamic industry.
