Our Mission is to provide a regional opportunity for training, education and networking in the Midwest bankcard acquiring community. To do this we host a dynamic three-day conference for bankcard professionals in a Midwestern city every July. The conference covers the latest developments, sales opportunities and newest products in merchant bankcard.
Our next event will be the 2008 MWAA 6th Annual Conference at the lovely Renaissance St. Louis Grand & Suites Hotel. We invite every payments professional to enjoy outstanding presentations, plus feasting and festivities with about 500 of their colleagues.
The professionals who come to the conference include merchant level salespersons (MLS), bankers, ISO managers and owners, consultants, industry experts and vendors. We pack the three days with opportunities to do business, dialog with the experts, hear great motivational messages and network with everyone.
If you're a payments professional, come to St. Louis and be part of the action!
