On January 1, 2025, the 105-year-old Washington Collectors Association (WCA) merged with the Oregon Collectors Association (ORCA) and the Idaho Collectors Association (ICA) to become the Northwest Collectors Association (NWCA).

The NWCA is a trade organization of professional debt collectors that serve the credit and collection industry in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington State. With over 100 members and growing, we represent the growing and diverse accounts receivable management industry, including third-party collection agencies, asset buyers, attorneys, and third party affiliates.  As business and regulatory environments become increasingly complex, the association provides leadership for credit and collection professionals. Our mission is to advocate for positive public policy and promote the interests of the credit and collection industry.
