Navigating Payments Conference
The UMACHA Navigating Payments conference stands as our primary educational event, drawing in a significant number of participants. Featuring about 35 sessions led by national and regional industry experts, this conference offers a valuable platform for around 350 attendees each year. It is an excellent chance for participants to connect with vendors and exhibitors, delving into electronic payment solutions.

Pre-Conference Workshop Add-On
For 2026, UMACHA is offering attendees the option to add a half-day pre-conference workshop one day prior to the start of the conference (Tuesday, September 22 from 1-4pm CT). This in-person session will feature UMACHA-led discussion on the latest ACH fraud monitoring rules, along with a forward-looking overview of additional rule changes that have been approved but are not yet in effect. More than a lecture, this pre-conference workshop is designed to foster meaningful peer discussion and networking, giving you the opportunity to learn directly from your peers about how they are approaching fraud monitoring compliance—what’s working well and where there may be opportunities to strengthen controls. Come prepared to share, learn, and engage with your peers as we dive into the conversation together.
