Corefy Study Finds Payment Systems Remain Fragmented

Businesses often rely on multiple acquirers, payment service providers and internal finance tools to process transactions across markets. When those systems are not connected, payment data, reconciliation and risk controls can become fragmented. The findings from payment orchestration platform Corefy matter because they point to a persistent gap between companies’ automation ambitions and the infrastructure used to manage everyday payment operations.

Corefy’s 2025 study found that a majority of businesses still manage payments through disconnected systems, underscoring continuing challenges in integration and process automation. The information available for this event does not specify the survey’s sample size, fieldwork dates, exact percentage of respondents or any payment value involved. Those omissions limit comparisons across industries and make it difficult to quantify the scale of fragmentation beyond the study’s central finding.
