It's here! MAC announces its new name!
Level Up 23 has lifted off. For more than 25 years, the Merchant Acquirers’ Committee (MAC) has been the community to help our members manage risk, improve compliance, prevent fraud, and stay secure.
We are excited to announce that effective April 7, MAC will have a new name to reflect our evolution from a grassroots organization into a unified risk community: the Association of Payment Professionals (APP).
On April 6 we will have a webinar for members to discuss these and other new programs which will launch starting the week of April 10. Watch for more news in the month ahead. And enjoy the following video introduction of our new brand.
It's an exciting time to be part of MAC. New members and volunteers are always welcome. Join us as we move forward to the future together.
