S01 Ep29: Hans Puvogel, COO of Parkopedia, World’s Leading Connected Car Services Provider

Season 1 · Episode 29

Wednesday, November 15, 2023 • Duration 38:43

This week, we meet up with Hans Puvogel COO of Parkopedia. This is a natural follow up to a previous episode on in car payment with Mercedes Pay. I find the transformation of the automotive industry totally fascinating. Its quite incredible how fast things are moving both in terms of migration from fossil fuel to EV vehicles but also in terms of the emergence of highly connected cars capable of supporting all kinds of in car commerce use cases.

Founded in 2007, Parkopedia has become a key player in this emerging market. It is the world's leading connected car services provider used by millions of drivers, car manufactures and other organisations. And its not just parking as the name implies, today, Parkopedia helps drivers find and pay for petrol, fuel, EV charging stations, road tolls and other connected car services in over 20,000 cities across 90 countries.

In our conversation, Hans expands on Parkopedia’s journey and we discuss how important and integral Parkopedia’s in house developed payment processing platform has become to the Parkopedia solution and proposition to its B2B customers. In particular I was struck by how much back end complexity the Parkopedia team have managed to solve for, providing technical, operational and contractual aggregation of all stakeholders across connected car value chain for a wide variety of different payment use cases.

S01 Ep23: Scott McInnes, Partner At Law Firm Bird & Bird, Review Of EU Proposals For PSD3, PSR, FIDA and Digital Euro

Season 1 · Episode 23

Wednesday, July 19, 2023 • Duration 46:00

Today’s episode is timely one. We meet up with Scott McInnes, partner in the Brussels office of international law firm Bird & Bird, to deep dive the recently published package of new payments legislation proposed by the European Commission. Scott has more than 15 years' experience of competition law and regulation, with considerable expertise in payments regulation and competition law across Europe. First off we review the much anticipated 3rd Payment Services Directive - PSD3 - which consists of 2 proposals, the Directive plus the Payment Services Regulation or PSR. Secondly, we take a look at a proposal for a framework for financial data access or FIDA which seeks to extend Open Banking to establish rights and obligations to manage customer data sharing in the broader financial sector beyond payment accounts. And then Thirdly, we discuss the proposed framework to facilitate the possible introduction of a digital euro which is perhaps the most radical and transformative idea on the table. With the EU payments legislation pipeline now chocker block, we also consider the UK’s post Brexit position and the fact that the UK has for the first time in the 20 + years of EU payments regulation, not had any input or say in the drafting of the proposed legislation.

Below are Bird & Bird's client alerts on PSD3 and PSR:
