Recently, Electronic Merchant Systems attended the annual Southeast Acquirers Association (SEAA) conference in Orlando, Florida. Founded in 2000, the SEAA was established to fulfill the educational needs of the ISO and MSP community, providing economic access to the payment processing industry’s latest trends and regulatory changes.
From March 12-14, many key players from the payment industry gathered to learn more at the annual forum that covered current industry issues, trends, and topics. As a Flamingo Sponsor of the Conference, EMS continues to display its commitment to being a leader in the payment industry and was proudly recognized by SEAA at the closing reception.
