UPay Payment Processing Upgrade: Modern Payment Processing, Built for Unions

UPay is upgrading from ProPay to Adyen, unlocking new capabilities for Canadian and international unions.

In early 2026, all upgraded clients using UPay will transition from our ProPay-based payment processor to a new Adyen-powered framework.

Your existing UPay functionality will continue uninterrupted—but the upgrade sets the stage for:

  • ACSS support for Canadian bank account transactions
  • Expanded payment processing options for Australia
  • A more modern, flexible platform for future enhancements

This change is about giving your members more ways to pay while simplifying how payments flow through UnionWare.

What Stays the Same

  • Secure, integrated payments inside UnionWare
  • Member self-service through MemberLink
  • Staff-initiated payments through ULink

What’s Improving

  • More payment method options
  • Enhanced reliability and scalability
  • Alignment with a global payments platform (Adyen)

We’ll be working with each impacted client to plan and coordinate the upgrade.
