Thank you for considering ACA International membership. ACA’s International Division membership is open to individuals and organizations in third-party debt collections, outsourced first-party debt collections, billing companies, asset buyers, judgment recovery, and litigation and collection or creditor defense law firms, who are located outside of the 50 United States, including U.S. territories and possessions.

If you are eligible for this division, you will find it is a flexible membership suited to your needs—you may join individually or add additional members by joining as an organization. For example, the first level of attorney-organization membership covers up to 24 attorneys working for the same firm, regardless of location.

Members’ Attorney Program
MAP is a special interest discussion group for defense and in-house attorneys, which helps them better represent ACA members’ interests in the United States. To participate, attorneys must work for an ACA member company or hold a creditor membership and certify they do not represent consumers against collection agencies, asset buyers or credit grantors. Licensed attorneys at member companies and firms may complete and return a MAP participation form to be added to this group.
