About ETA

ETA Councils

Being an ETA member firm ensures you a seat at the table where industry decisions are made. Now it’s up to you to lend your voice to the discussion.

Volunteers are an essential part of the ETA community. ETA councils are open advisory groups that work to provide understanding and leadership on a wide variety of payments issues to external stakeholders.

ETA councils provide members with a way to stay informed and/or to help with the development of policy, research projects, and other informational deliverables for the industry.

ETA council membership is an open enrollment process and is available to all ETA members who work within the area covered by the council.
