Methods and system for non-reversible payment processing are described. In one embodiment, a request for non-reversible payment for a sender may be received. The request for non-reversible payment may include a payment amount and a payment receiver identifier. The payment receiver identifier may be associated with a payment receiver. A sender account of the sender may be decreased by the payment amount. A payment receiver account of the payment receiver may be increased by the payment amount.
