The emerging trend of companies adopting blockchain technology for B2B (business-to-business) payments. As traditional payment systems face challenges such as slow transactions, high costs, and security concerns, businesses are turning to blockchain-based solutions to streamline their payment processes. By leveraging the decentralized nature of blockchain, companies can benefit from faster transactions, reduced fees, increased transparency, and enhanced security.  Blockchain-based B2B payment systems offer advantages such as improved efficiency, reduced reliance on intermediaries, and seamless cross-border transactions. By embracing blockchain for B2B payments, companies can stay at the forefront of innovation while reaping the benefits of a more efficient and secure payment ecosystem.

Since the 1980s merchants have gradually moved towards digital payment. In recent years, this trend has gained traction. Only 25% of B2B transactions are paid by check. To support their modernization efforts, many companies have invested or plan to invest in new accounts payable and receivables systems.

PYMNTS discovered that retailers are also looking to enhance their digital payment options. PYMNTS found that 55% of grocery stores and 56% of convenience stores accept real-time payments. Many companies are also exploring new business innovations, such as loyalty programs or refund procedures.
