Protecting the value, innovation, and convenience for consumers using today's growing electronic payments system.

The International Alliance for Electronic Payments (IAEP) is a coalition of international free-market organisations who are concerned that interchange fee regulation has negatively affected the poor, consumers, small community lending institutions and the economies of countries around the globe. Members of the IAEP live and work in nations where they have seen firsthand how regulating interchange results in higher rates and fees for consumers. IAEP members share the goal of educating consumers and policymakers about the consequences of regulating global electronic payment systems that move payments quickly and securely between millions of consumers and merchants worldwide.
