B2B Payments: What Growth Opportunities Are Emerging?
Open banking and artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) technology are driving the transformational growth of global business-to-business (B2B) payments
The global B2B payments landscape was valued at USD 11.69 trillion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 15.88 trillion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2024 to 2030. Industry growth is driven by accelerating digital transformation across enterprise financial workflows, increasing adoption of real-time and automated payment solutions, and the rising participation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in formal payment ecosystems. The shift away from paper-based and manual payment processes toward integrated, API-driven platforms is fundamentally reshaping how businesses manage accounts payable, receivable, and cross-border transactions.
