    306 JÓZSEF CZÍMER CHANGING PAYMENT LANDSCAPE1 József Czímer Th is paper is intended to be diff erent from others. I shall of course discuss almost all new achievements in the forefront of the payments industry – and there is a large number of them – but we shall see how very few systems in fact serve the vast numbers of diff erent payment tools. Also, this article tries not to be too technical, because the authors believe that even bankers claiming to be payments specialist are unfamiliar with the entire value chain of the payment service industry. Th e aim of this paper is to show what the customer sees and what is behind this front and accordingly, to show the interaction between the various elements of the system. JEL codes: G20, G21, G23 Keywords: payment services, bank card payments, mobile payments, payment infrastucure Although the European Parliament adopted European Commission proposal to create safer and more innovative European payments in Brussels on 8 October 2015, known as PSD2, this paper will refer to the PSD1 due to the fact that, fi rstly, the PSD2 has not yet entered into force and, secondly, the PSDs this paper deals with have not been changed signifi cantly. When PSD2 enters into force it will intend to amend and replace PSD1 to •reduce ambiguity; • level the playing fi eld for payments providers; • increase consumer protection; • stimulate innovation; • increase competition; and • enforce the implementation of new payments type. Th e two major provisions and implications of PSD2 will be the followings: • it accepts the Th ird Party Payment (TPP) provision; and • under the “Access to Accounts” (XS2A) rule it will force banks to provide customer account information to third parties via API, if the account holder agrees.
