Knowledge-Sharing Sessions Help Financial Institutions Build Strategy for Payments Infrastructure Modernization, Instant Payments, and Digital Money
Alacriti, a leading provider of cloud-based payment technology and money movement solutions, is launching a series of masterclasses across the United States. The series, “From Instant Payments to Digital Money: Creating Your Payments Roadmap,” is hosted in partnership with Wespay, UMACHA, PaymentsFirst, and EPCOR.
Each session features payments industry expert Mark Majeske, senior vice president of faster payments at Alacriti, alongside speakers from Visa, the Federal Reserve, and The Clearing House. The masterclasses are designed for professionals, such as payments executives and product leaders at financial institutions, advancing their instant payments and payment innovation strategies.

The masterclass series helps financial institutions build on their investments in instant payments while preparing for stablecoins, tokenized deposits, and the next generation of money movement. Attendees will see the results of exclusive Alacriti data analysis on instant payment adoption trends, transaction patterns, and emerging use cases. The curriculum covers today’s leading payment rails—e.g., the RTP® network, the FedNow® Service, Visa Direct, Zelle®, cross-border, and digital money—providing guidance on orchestrating payments and aligning rail investments. Classes will feature real-world case studies highlighting successful use cases, implementation lessons, and common pitfalls.
“Every payments decision a financial institution makes today determines what’s possible tomorrow,” said Majeske. “The challenge is that you’ve got instant payments, stablecoins, and tokenized deposits all emerging at once. Alacriti built its entire platform around helping financial institutions navigate this complexity in real time. Our masterclasses are an extension of our mission to educate the financial institution market on the future of payments, and help them make confident decisions about the future.”
