Nacha and the U.S. Faster Payments Council, in collaboration with our nation’s Payments Associations, formed an alliance in 2022 to create the Accredited Faster Payments Professional (AFPP) program. This partnership demonstrates a cross-industry collaboration to benefit the entire payments ecosystem.
The AFPP builds on the FPP certificate program, offering a rigorous and centralized accreditation program allowing payments professionals to demonstrate their expertise across all faster payment types, including Same Day ACH, instant payments, and wire. The 2026 exam window is now closed. The 2027 exam registration window will open Fall of 2026. See the Nacha website for more details.
Congratulations to the FPC Members who are the newest Accredited Faster Payments Professionals (AFPPs)!
