FintechsDispatch

For conference organisers and sponsors

Press & accreditation

What FintechsDispatch covers, what accredited access lets us produce, and how to reach the desk. Everything an organiser or press office needs on one page.

FintechsDispatch is an independent trade publication covering payments, banking infrastructure, embedded finance, digital assets and regtech. Conference reporting is a core part of what we do: we preview the agenda, report from the floor, and publish analysis once the event closes.

This page exists so that press offices do not have to email us to find out who we are.

Requesting press accreditation for our desk? The fastest route is an email to press@fintechsdispatch.com with the event name, dates, city and the accreditation deadline. We reply to every request, including the ones we decline.

Who we are

Edoardo Mustarelli publishes FintechsDispatch from New York. The masthead, contact details and ownership are listed in full on our about page.

Events we have covered

The desk has attended and reported from the following, with accredited or purchased access:

Our current position on every event we track (attended, confirmed, accreditation requested or watching) is published on the conference desk. We keep it current rather than listing only the flattering entries.

What we cover

BeatWhat that means in practice
Payments and payments infrastructureCard economics, acquiring, domestic and cross-border schemes, ISO 20022, real-time rails
Embedded finance and BaaSSponsor-bank arrangements, programme oversight, distribution partnerships
Banking technologyCore migrations, ledgers, treasury systems, reconciliation

Regtech and financial crimeKYC/KYB, screening, monitoring, supervisory expectations
Policy and supervisionConsultations, deadlines and supervisory statements that change how firms operate

We are a trade publication, not a consumer one. Our readers are practitioners: people who run payments operations, build financial infrastructure, or supervise those who do.

Our published conference desk coverage, including our analysis of how the circuit is structured, who funds an agenda and what press programmes get right and wrong, will tell you quickly whether our approach suits your event. We publish the critical half as readily as the positive one, and we say so up front rather than after the fact.

Our audience

FintechsDispatch launched in 2025, so we are not going to hand you a traffic number dressed up as a track record. We would rather tell you the truth and let you judge it.

What we can evidence today: reporting already published from Money20/20 USA and CES, a working archive on payments infrastructure, embedded finance, regtech and the conference circuit itself, and a public coverage calendar showing every event we track and our honest position on each one.

Who it is written for: practitioners. People who run payments operations, build financial infrastructure, sit in compliance functions, or supervise those who do. We are a trade publication, not a consumer one.

On numbers: we run first-party, cookie-free analytics on this site and nothing else. No third-party trackers, no advertising pixels, no visitor profiling. Ask and we will send you the actual page-level figures for whatever period you name, unrounded, including the ones that do not flatter us. We will publish standing figures here once there is a period worth reporting. We will not publish an estimate as a measured figure at any point, because an inflated media kit is the fastest way to lose accreditation permanently and it is not worth one pass.

What accredited access produces

When we attend an event with press access, an organiser can reasonably expect:

  1. A preview piece published before the event, reading the agenda for the questions it is actually asking.
  2. Coverage from the floor: reporting on the sessions that produce something new, published during or immediately after the event.
  3. A post-event analysis piece on the theme that recurred across sessions.
  4. Distribution through our site, RSS feed and social channels, with the event named and linked.

What we need in order to produce it: a working press pass for the days requested, access to the press room, the speaker and session list in advance, and, where the format allows, the ability to request short interviews with speakers.

We do not require travel or accommodation to be provided. Where an organiser offers them, our editorial standards require that we disclose it in every piece arising from the event.

What we do not do

Being explicit about this tends to save everyone time:

If an event requires pre-approval of coverage as a condition of accreditation, we will decline the pass and cover the event from public sources instead.
