“A big part of what we do is exploring the payment sectors relationship with gambling, and it is an evolving relationship, it’s an innovative relationship, it focuses on FinTech,” said Streeter.

Other industries, perhaps more conservative in nature, don’t try the latest technologies in payments the way gambling does. “Something that I’ve noticed is, within gambling and payments, the payment sector is ahead of where it is, you see advancements that are ahead of where they are in payments in other sectors,” he said. “I think you could almost say you’re looking into the future, from other sectors looking in, you’re looking into the future and how you look at payments relationship with gambling.”
