Christophe L'Helguen Interview for MoneyLIVE Payments Europe 2025

Last month, our colleague Christophe L'Helguen, Division Manager Issuing, attended the MoneyLIVE Payments Europe event to discuss Card modernisation strategies: keeping cards top of wallet. In this short interview, Christophe answers key questions such as: Are cards disappearing with all these new payment methods, and what makes cards still strong compared to instant transfers or crypto? His vision remains: "the card is losing its plastic, but not its purpose." Cards are used everywhere, at any time. It’s fast, simple, and trusted. The future will be multi-rail, where simplicity and security are central. Cards will continue to be part of the mix.
