WSAA Mission Statement

Welcome to the Western States Acquirer’s Association.  The founding members of the WSAA recognized a need to provide a forum of training, education and networking with financial institutions, sales agents, ISO’s and MLS’s.  

The Regional Associations have made quite an impact on the merchant acquiring front over the last few years and it is time to bring this opportunity to the Western States.

We are a not-for-profit, no membership organization, independent forum dedicated to keeping acquirers educated and informed on the ever changing needs of our industry.

We fund each of our events through Vendor sponsorship and minimal registration fees. Vendors are identified as those organizations or individuals that primarily sell to the Acquiring Industry.

Attendees are defined as Financial Institutions, Independent Sales Organizations, or Individuals that primarily sell acquiring related services directly to the Retail Industry. WSAA is open to all who want to attend these Seminars.
