Introducing 8am™ CPACharge: A New Look, Same Trusted Solution

We’re excited to share an important update: our owner and operator, AffiniPay, is now 8am—and CPACharge is now 8am CPACharge. While our name has changed, the secure, professional payment experience you count on is here to stay.
This rebrand represents a more connected future for professionals across accounting and finance, backed by the same trusted support team, tools, and technology.
Why 8am?
As an accounting professional, you start each day with structure, focus, and intention. That mindset inspired the name 8am—a reflection of how we approach our work and how we support yours.
Formerly AffiniPay, 8am has been serving professionals across accounting, legal, and client-focused industries for over two decades. We began as a company focused on making it easier for professionals to get paid. Today, we’re a platform that improves operations, strengthens client relationships, and fuels growth.
In the words of Dru Armstrong, CEO of 8am:
“8am brings together everything we’ve created into a unified, trusted platform designed to deliver even more value to professionals. It’s a name that speaks to focus, structure, and purpose—the way our customers begin each day, and the way we show up for them.”
With 8am, you can expect the same level of reliability, trust, and purpose-driven innovation that has guided our journey from the start.
What does this mean for you?
If you’re a current CPACharge customer, you can continue using it as you always have—the same login, tools, and functionality. You’ll simply begin seeing the 8am CPACharge name and refreshed branding across your dashboard, emails, and communications.
Here’s what’s staying the same—and getting even better:
- The same reliable payment processing, built for accounting professionals and CPAs
- Ongoing improvements to tools and client experience
- A more cohesive, professional look across all touchpoints
“You’ll see a new logo and a refreshed identity, but nothing changes in how you access or use our solutions. In fact, this brand unites them all in one place, giving us a stronger foundation and allowing us to move faster, innovate more, and stay laser-focused on helping firms grow and serve their clients with confidence.” – Dru Armstrong, CEO of 8am
More value. Same commitment.
CPACharge was built specifically to meet the needs of accounting professionals, and that focus remains unchanged. What’s new is how it now fits into a broader, more connected platform designed to support every aspect of your professional journey.
As part of 8am, CPACharge is now aligned with a larger vision—one that brings more value, consistency, and flexibility to the tools you use every day. With deeper integrations and intuitive design, you’ll get a smarter, simpler experience whether you’re managing client payments, workflows, or firm growth.
A new day starts now
As Nate Skinner, CMO of 8am, shared, “8am isn’t just our new name—it’s our commitment to you. It gives us the momentum to build stronger relationships, connect more meaningfully, and deliver greater value in every interaction.”
We may have a new name, but we’re still focused on helping you save time, simplify billing, and get paid faster, with tools designed specifically for how accounting professionals work.
