Businesses with the foresight to anticipate change, and more importantly the flexibility to adapt to it, can grow despite disruptions to the way they do business.
Modern payment technology is a change that can transform your business. Adaptive companies with modern payment systems experience enhanced efficiency, fewer overhead costs, more revenue opportunities, and better financial tracking.
Let’s look at what it means to be adaptive, how a payment strategy that is rooted in technology can support an adaptive approach to business, and how Ungerboeck can help you reach more customers, grow your revenue, and thrive through disruption.
What It Means to be Adaptive
Being adaptive comes from an awareness that every forecasting, planning, or “future-proofing” exercise has limits. Unexpected challenges are always on the horizon. Adaptive businesses create a culture of nimbleness that allows them to change course and meet the shifting needs of the business and its customers.
Adaptive companies simplify their technology. In today’s world, technology is the linchpin that supports agility and empowers businesses to adapt when required. Knowing how quickly conditions can change, it’s paramount to develop in-house solutions or partner with a trusted expert.
Companies that go it alone with their technology strategy are susceptible to both underinvesting in technology due to an underappreciation for what’s possible, and to overinvesting or wasting investments by building complex systems around inefficient processes.
Partnering with an expert like Ungerboeck gives you access to industry-leading technology solutions, as well as proven execution strategies from thousands of your peers around the world. The combination of technology and advice helps you increase revenue and provide better customer service while reducing costs.
How Payments Support Adaptiveness

A seamless payment system rooted in technology helps companies thrive
When it comes to payments, the lifeblood of every enterprise, adaptive venues and event organizers recognize that payments are not just a transaction, but an important piece of their event experience that profoundly shapes brand perception. A payment system rooted in flexible technology can help a business thrive in challenging times by meeting changing customer expectations and reducing strain on the business’s financial operations.
For your customers, this means giving them a seamless and simple purchasing experience that understands where they’re coming from and allows them to pay in their preferred way. And for the business, it means continually refining your accounts receivable process and regularly exploring new services and business models.
Payments Rooted in Technology
The slow-moving and rigid payment systems of the past don’t allow for the nimbleness that venues and event organizers need to adapt in an ever-changing world. Legacy payment solutions often require organizations to integrate their business software with a payment gateway and merchant account.
These multi-system solutions are known for many limitations including redundant fees, poor performance, vague reporting, delayed access to new features, and inadequate support. Such limitations, combined with long-term contracts, make it impossible to adapt when you need to accept new payment methods, resolve issues with refunds and disputes, or introduce new billing processes.
