On March 25, 2025, the president of the United States signed an Executive Order mandating the Federal government to modernize how it makes and receives payments. The goal is to replace paper checks with digital methods to help increase payment security and reduce costs. While there is no immediate impact to the payments industry as a whole, government mandates have historically trickled down to influence changes.

“Going Green” is not a new concept. The increasing popularity of electric vehicles (EV), energy-efficient appliances, and sustainable packaging are a few things helping consumers reduce their carbon footprint in everyday life. It is just as crucial for organizations to practice energy management and sustainability.

In today’s fast-paced, digital-first world, automation is transforming how businesses handle every aspect of their business, including payments. Modern solutions like REPAY’s next-generation technology continuously make payment processes more secure and efficient.
