GS interviews Flywire's Chris Couch about B2B finance
As artificial intelligence reshapes finance and payments, long-standing assumptions about accuracy, workflows and even job roles are shifting at record speed. To explore where B2B finance is headed, The Green Sheet spoke with Chris Couch, head of product, B2B, at Flywire.
We recently reached out to members of The Green Sheet Advisory Board, along with a range of payments professionals who work closely with merchants day in and day out. They hear firsthand what frustrates merchants and what their customers are asking for at checkout. We wanted to find out what merchants are telling them. Are merchants and their customers clamoring for real-time payments? Crypto acceptance? Fast-moving innovations? Or are other things top of mind for them?

As the payments landscape continues to evolve, how should ISOs, agents, and software providers approach 2026—by going all-in on vertical-specific solutions or by refining generalized offerings that can serve a wider market?
In this solo episode, James Shepherd shares hard-earned insights from his experience running both CCStorage, a vertical-specific solution, and Stackably, a more generalized tech platform. He breaks down the advantages and challenges of each approach and offers practical advice on how to align your strategy for growth, innovation, and long-term success in the coming year.
Whether you’re building software, growing an ISO, or rethinking your 2026 roadmap, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
