What are we doing next?

We are only in the early stages of our journey towards building enduring digital payments infrastructure for Aotearoa. 

The submissions we receive through this consultation will help shape our next milestone, which will be the delivery of an industry strategy and roadmap that brings together all our activities in this space.

We will be ensuring any work done is coordinated and aligned with industry priorities and sequenced correctly to meet changing regulatory expectations.  

Why we’re doing this work 

Although the current payments system in Aotearoa provides regular and reliable payments, we need to ensure it can be future-proofed to meet digital economy and societal needs for many more generations to come.  

Payments for the next generation proposes building core digital payments infrastructure that will ensure any future payments system we have in Aotearoa continues to remain safe, secure, resilient and interoperable. 

We want to help the industry and wider stakeholders consider and deliver solutions that are suited to Aotearoa and our unique payment networks, whilst also providing the interoperability required to prepare Aotearoa for the digital information economy of the future.
