New partnership brings Exectras Membership featuring Exectras 360HEALTH to MWAA's payments community
CHICAGO, IL / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2026 / The Midwest Acquirers Association (MWAA), a regional organization dedicated to education, networking, and support for the payments industry, today announced a new partnership with Exectras, a membership-based business services and benefits platform, to introduce Exectras Membership featuring Exectras 360HEALTH to the broader MWAA community.
Through this partnership, MWAA and Exectras will work together to expand access to healthcare-related resources, employee benefits, business services, and cost-saving solutions for payments professionals, entrepreneurs, agents, ISOs, small business owners, and organizations throughout the acquiring ecosystem.
Exectras Membership featuring Exectras 360HEALTH is designed to help businesses and individuals access valuable health, wellness, and business resources that may otherwise be difficult to obtain through traditional large-employer benefit channels. The offering supports employers, employees, and families with solutions intended to promote physical, financial, and operational well-being.
"For years, I have believed that one of the greatest unmet needs within the payments industry has been providing affordable healthcare access and meaningful benefits to the thousands of professionals, entrepreneurs, agents, ISOs, and small business owners who drive our industry forward," said Rod Katzfey, President and Board Member of the Midwest Acquirers Association.
"Many individuals and smaller organizations throughout the payments ecosystem do not have access to the same healthcare options and benefit programs typically available through larger corporations. As a result, finding affordable coverage and valuable resources has often been a challenge.
"That is why I am excited about the partnership between the Midwest Acquirers Association and Exectras. As an organization dedicated to advancing and supporting the payments industry, MWAA has continually looked for opportunities to bring additional value to the professionals and companies that participate in our events and community. This partnership helps expand access to healthcare-related solutions and benefits that many industry professionals have been seeking for years.
"Exectras shares our vision of supporting the people behind the payments industry not just through business opportunities, but through programs that can positively impact their personal and professional well-being. Together, MWAA and Exectras are helping create greater access to resources that can benefit individuals, families, and businesses across our industry.
"We are proud to partner with Exectras and look forward to introducing these opportunities to the broader payments community while continuing MWAA's mission of connecting, educating, and supporting payments professionals throughout the industry."
The partnership reflects MWAA's continued commitment to delivering meaningful value to the payments professionals and companies that participate in its events and community. By aligning with Exectras, MWAA is helping address a long-standing need across the industry: access to practical, affordable, and scalable benefits for the people and businesses that power payments.
"MWAA has built a trusted community for payments professionals across the Midwest and beyond," said Joe Cherry, CEO of Exectras. "We are honored to partner with MWAA to bring Exectras Membership and Exectras 360HEALTH to an industry filled with entrepreneurs, independent professionals, and growing businesses that deserve access to meaningful healthcare benefits and support."
MWAA and Exectras will introduce the partnership to payments professionals through MWAA communications, events, and industry engagement opportunities.
