## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs curated, domain-specific payments industry news from authoritative trade sources (PYMNTS, Payments Dive) rather than general business or financial news. It is especially well-suited for fintech product teams, payments-adjacent builders, compliance monitors, or competitive intelligence workflows focused on processors, interchange, acquiring, and real-time rail developments. Prefer it over general news endpoints when the user's context is specifically payments or PSP-related.
