DALLAS, May 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TriumphPay announced today the addition of the Worldwide Express family of brands, which includes Worldwide Express, GlobalTranz and Unishippers, to its open payments network as a full audit and payments network participant. The TriumphPay open payments network has rapidly expanded since its launch in January 2022, creating a more secure hub for the presentment, audit, and payment of invoices in the transportation industry.

“TriumphPay is the next logical step for evolving our payments processes for our carriers and customers,” said Tom Madine, chief executive officer at Worldwide Express. “Joining TriumphPay’s payments network allows our team to view and conduct transactions more quickly, securely and efficiently.
