From merchant services to modern payment infrastructure
Nationwide Payment Systems (NPS) is celebrating 25 years of helping small and midsize businesses streamline operations, improve cash flow and scale with confidence.
Our mission has always been simple,” said Kopelman, co-founder and CEO. “To help business owners get paid efficiently, reduce friction and have a real partner they can call when they need support.”
— Allen Kopelman
Founded in 2001 by Allen Kopelman and David Burney, the company has evolved from a traditional merchant services provider into a modern payment infrastructure company serving retail, restaurants and hospitality, B2B and wholesale, e-commerce, SaaS platforms and regulated industries nationwide.
“Our mission has always been simple,” said Kopelman, co-founder and CEO. “To help business owners get paid efficiently, reduce friction and have a real partner they can call when they need support.”
Today, NPS operates NPSONE, a unified platform that integrates card payments, ACH transfers, digital wallets, smart invoicing, POS systems and embedded payment technology into one scalable infrastructure.
NPSONE enables businesses to generate branded payment links, automate invoicing and collections, manage subscriptions and monitor reporting from a centralized dashboard. The platform integrates with accounting systems such as QuickBooks Online and supports high-volume and regulated environments with risk monitoring, compliance oversight and chargeback management.

From storefront retailers to SaaS providers, NPS serves clients nationwide through flexible pricing models and white-label and embedded payment solutions.
Burney said the company’s longevity is rooted in relationships.
“Payments are critical to a company’s survival,” Burney said. “We’ve built our reputation on being transparent, accessible and proactive. That human support is what keeps clients with us year after year.”
Kopelman’s industry leadership extends beyond NPS. He hosts B2B Vault: The Biz to Biz Podcast, a nationally recognized business podcast delivering insights for entrepreneurs and executives. The show covers fintech, leadership, operations and growth strategies, featuring conversations with industry leaders and business innovators.
“Business owners need more than a processor — they need insight,” Kopelman said. “Through the podcast and our platform, we aim to give them both.”
Headquartered in South Florida, Nationwide Payment Systems continues to invest in technology designed for real-world complexity — from in-store POS and commerce systems to APIs and hybrid PayFac-style models for SaaS and ISV partners.
As it enters its next chapter, NPS remains focused on building payment systems that scale alongside its clients’ ambitions.
