The adoption of real-time B2B payments is on the rise, with 53% of businesses planning to make the shift. However, the biggest obstacle to this adoption may be the fact that the old system is not broken enough.

A recent report by PYMNTS Intelligence highlights the growing trend of real-time B2B payments, with 53% of businesses planning to adopt this technology. The report notes that the biggest obstacle to this adoption is not the lack of technology, but rather the fact that the old system is still functional, making it harder for businesses to switch to a new system. As payment habits continue to shift, businesses will need to adapt to stay competitive.
