“I believe this Payment Course will offer students a solid foundation of the payment industry, accumulated and distilled from real industry players. We hope this course will offer both the bird’s-eye view of the payment ecosystem, and the deep-dive into the payment mechanics we use today,” said Clement Loh, Group CEO of Finexus Group.
