January 17, 2023 (Pleasant Grove, UT) – Open Payment Network (OPN), a technology provider that enables instant payments, today announced that it has become a Macha Preferred Partner offering instant payments to the industry. 

“Instant payments are the way of the future,” said Macha CEO Mary Gilmeister. “We are happy to welcome Open Payment Network as our newest Macha Preferred Partner to support the industry in offering instant payments and are working with them to help our members achieve early success.”

As the need for instant payments continues to grow, Open Payment Network has taken the lead in creating a solution with which financial institutions can offer their customers the ability to send and receive instant payments and requests for payment using FedNowSM or The Clearing House RTP®.
