PacPay is here to meet the needs of Hawaii financial institutions in the safe, secure, and efficient use of payments. Together with PaymentsFirst, we support banks, credit unions, and the communities they serve through payments education, advocacy, and helpful resources.

About Us

The Pacific Payments Alliance, also known as “PacPay,” was originally formed as a non-profit organization to oversee the private sector automated clearinghouse, known as Hawaii’s Regional Processing Center (RPC).  In the years since PacPay’s formation, our role has evolved beyond the supervision of the RPC. The mission of PacPay is to promote the safe, secure, and efficient use of the payment systems that serve our members in the State of Hawaii and their communities. Large financial institutions, community banks, and credit unions have designated PacPay and PaymentsFirst as their exclusive Payments Associations.
