AffiniPay Celebrates 20 Years of Innovation, Shaping the Future of Professional Services With Advanced Software and Fintech Solutions

AUSTIN, TX (March 5, 2025) -- AffiniPay, a leader in legal practice management, integrated payments, and embedded fintech solutions, proudly announces its 20th year anniversary. AffiniPay has been at the forefront of innovation for over two decades and has evolved into a cornerstone of the legal and accounting industries.

AffiniPay was founded by Amy Porter in 2005, setting out to deliver secure and efficient payment solutions for professionals. Porter’s risk-taking and leadership not only fueled AffiniPay’s success but also broke barriers for women in technology. Her innovative approach and dedication to excellence have driven the company’s mission of outshining the ordinary, working smart to win fast, and always finding a way.

AffiniPay’s proprietary payments technology was developed in 2005 and later brought to the legal and accounting industries. In 2007, the launch of LawPay revolutionized how legal professionals handled payments. Designed specifically for the legal industry, LawPay quickly became a game-changer for law firms seeking a secure, reliable payment solution. Over the years, it has become a trusted partner for more than 55,000 law firms across the U.S. and Canada, simplifying payment processes and freeing up valuable time for legal professionals.

CPACharge was launched in 2016 for accounting professionals as a seamless, cost-effective payment solution integrating over 40 software systems. By streamlining payment processes and improving client interactions, CPACharge has empowered over 50,000 accounting firms across the U.S. and Canada to work more efficiently and focus on growing their practice.

Positioning For Success

Key investments accelerated AffiniPay’s growth, beginning with Great Hill Partners in 2016. A second investment from TA Associates in 2020 enabled the company to expand its footprint and product offerings further.

In 2022, AffiniPay took a step toward the future with a significant acquisition, bringing MyCase and its family of brands, Docketwise and CASEpeer, from Apax Funds. This move fueled AffiniPay’s next growth phase, becoming one of the fastest-growing legal practice management, integrated payments, and embedded fintech companies.

The Path Forward

AffiniPay has experienced remarkable growth, including a 217% increase in revenue over the past three years. It employs more than 500 people, has headquarters in both Austin, TX and San Diego, CA, and supports over 245,000 professionals nationwide.

Most recently in 2024, AffiniPay’s growth was significantly accelerated by an investment from Genstar Capital, fueling the company’s next phase of expansion. AffiniPay processed over $20 billion in payment volume this past year, with a 30% increase in ARR, and over $250 million in loan volume processed through its Pay Later service. The company has continued to innovate, recently introducing new product offerings like AffiniPay IQ, an AI-powered conversational interface, and the MyCase Smart Spend Visa® Business Card, the first and only credit card fully integrated with legal practice software.

Another major milestone was reached with the launch of LawPay and CPACharge in Puerto Rico, furthering the company’s mission to modernize payment solutions for legal and accounting professionals across the U.S. and beyond.

AffiniPay has maintained a remarkable 13-year streak on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies and has been recognized as one of the Best Places to Work by Builtin Austin for five consecutive years. The company also earned recognition as one of the top legal software providers by G2’s 2025 Best Software Awards, placing among the top 1% of vendors for customer satisfaction.

Leading for the Future

“We are incredibly proud of the journey we’ve had at AffiniPay, and as we celebrate 20 years of service, we want to thank our customers for choosing us as their trusted partner,” said Dru Armstrong, Chief Executive Officer of AffiniPay. “This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the vision of our founder, our executive leadership team, board members, and every team member across the company. Together, we’ll continue to meet and exceed the industry demands of our customers and their clients for years to come.”

Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Dru Armstrong, AffiniPay has seen significant expansion and market leadership. Since joining the company in 2021, Dru has been instrumental in driving its success, earning her a place on lists such as American Banker’s 2024 List of Most Influential Women in Fintech, Storm2’s Top 100 Women in Fintech, and Calibre One’s Top 25 Women Leaders in U.S. PE-Backed Software for 2025. Recently elected to Paycor’s Board of Directors, Dru continues to demonstrate her commitment to transforming how professionals run their businesses and set the stage for even greater achievements in the future.
