We've had a fantastic few days at the T2 Connect Customer Conference! The atmosphere was electric with 400 attendees, insightful presentations and engaging discussions about the future of parking technology ecosystems.. and even a marching band! Oli Carey's presentation on De-mystifying Card Payments was very well received, and we appreciate the great feedback. It was great to meet so many people, who stopped by our stand for a more detailed conversation about our payment solutions for parking. We're already looking forward to next year! Many thanks to the team at T2 Connect for such a great event. #customerconference #payments #networking

One week until Black Friday! Are you ready? With 66% of US consumers targeting Black Friday deals and 61% planning for Cyber Monday (NMI), these days are critical for merchants. And with 2023 holiday sales hitting a record $964.4 billion (National Retail Federation), this year could be even bigger. One thing’s certain, you can’t afford to take the holidays lightly! Nailing November and December sales can often make or break the entire year, so optimizing payments is key to reducing stress and maximizing success. In his latest blog, Peter Galvin shares 3 simple, yet often overlooked, strategies to help you prep merchants for holiday sales success: 1?? Ensure payment systems are up, running and redundant. 2?? Activate features that enhance the customer experience. 3?? Prioritize robust support flows before the rush. Let us know us know how are you gearing up for the season! Are you ready for the rush? ??

Did you know that 78% of consumers are willing to pay more for a purchase if it helps a small business thrive? Since 2010, American Express has been the driving force behind Small Business Saturday. As the payment platform of choice for more than 4,000 partners and their merchants, NMI has long been an advocate for small businesses, which is why we’re proud to support this initiative. Ahead of this year's sales event, we conducted a survey to learn about consumer perceptions around locally-owned businesses and how they feel about shopping small, and it highlighted some fascinating trends! Our survey found that 87% of consumers feel that gifts from small businesses are more thoughtful than those from big box stores, while 78% said they would be willing to pay more if it would benefit a small business. We also found that shopping small makes people feel satisfied, proud, and a stronger sense of community. 50% of respondents said they had shopped during past Small Business Saturday events, with the majority planning to do so again this year. With small businesses employing more than 61 million people in the United States alone, it's incredibly important to support our friends and neighbors — especially during the holidays. Will you participate in Amex's Small Business Saturday sales event next week? Where will you be shopping small?

"Small businesses employ more than 61.7 million Americans and are the backbone of our economy, driving job creation and fostering vibrant communities.

Have you ever considered how significant the global coffee shop market is? In 2023, it was valued at an incredible $223.78 billion. But how does that relate to your favorite local coffee shop? While you’re enjoying your flat white, consider this: specialty coffee shops make up 37% of all coffee shops in the US, and on average, a shop needs to sell 110 cups of coffee a day, just to break even. Small businesses, like your neighborhood café, fuel our mornings and bring so much variety to our communities. Their success relies on the loyalty of returning customers and the curiosity of new ones. Here’s a ‘wake up and smell the coffee’ stat: 72% of coffee orders are now placed on mobile devices. At NMI, we know the best customer experience is a seamless one, letting customers focus on the milk and syrup, not the payment. ? As Small Business Saturday approaches on November 30th, we encourage you to #ShopSmall and help these amazing businesses thrive! This season, NMI is proud to team up with American Express’ #ShopSmall initiative. #ShopSmall #SmallBusinessSaturday #CoffeeLovers
