P19 Payment Festival 2026

P19 Payment Festival 2026 is the flagship event of P19 and its Payment Pioneers community, which works on collaboration and innovation in payments in Austria and Europe. On 25 November the historic Sofiensäle in Vienna again becomes the meeting place for people who shape the payments industry. The programme combines high-calibre panels, interactive fishbowl discussions and keynotes from international speakers and experts from business, finance, tourism, mobility and retail. Themes on the community's agenda include the digital euro, tokenisation, fraud, open banking and payment use cases in commerce. Further programme details are still to be announced.

Who should attend

PSPs, acquirers, banks and fintechs active in Austria and the DACH region, as well as merchants from retail, travel and mobility who want to discuss how payment habits are changing. The fishbowl format suits people who prefer to join the conversation rather than just listen.
