Worldpay will utilize ACI’s UP eCommerce
Payments solution to accelerate roll-out of Alternative Payment
Methods to its global merchant network
ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading global provider of
real-time, any-to-any electronic payment solutions for banks,
intermediaries, merchants and corporates, today announced an
international relationship with Worldpay, Inc., a global leader in
payments processing technology and solutions. Worldpay will utilize
ACI’s award-winning UP eCommerce Payments solution to accelerate
the roll-out of Alternative Payment Methods (APMs) to its global
merchant network.
Worldpay accepts more than 300 payment types, and will use ACI’s
UP eCommerce Payments solution to broaden the number of APMs
available in different regions across the globe, alongside speeding
up time to market for merchants. The relationship will enable
Worldpay to further deepen its commitment to innovation and the
development of new strategic products and services.
ACI’s UP eCommerce Payments is an integrated payments gateway
and risk management solution that gives merchants access to an
extensive global payments network for cross-border payment
processing and local acquiring solutions, coupled with advanced
business intelligence tools and sophisticated real-time fraud
prevention capabilities. ACI’s solution supports hundreds of ways
to pay across more than 160 countries; it is built using a
flexible, platform-based, open payments architecture that is
available via a single point of integration. Payments setup can be
configured to suit clients’ individual needs, without additional
infrastructure costs or multiple integrations.
“Working with a proven leader like ACI Worldwide not only
enables us to offer our clients fast and seamless access to a
growing number of APMs in new markets, it allows Worldpay to focus
even more on developing new innovative services and technology
solutions,” commented Asif Ramji, chief product and marketing
officer at Worldpay. “As more of our merchants expand into
cross-border and cross-channel trade, offering local payment types
that are recognized, trusted and utilized by consumers is an
increasingly important factor for business success.”
“Industry research shows that offering the top three payment
methods in any market, rather than only the top one, can increase
merchants’ conversion rates up to 30 percent,” said Benny Tadele,
vice president – Merchant Solutions, ACI Worldwide. “In Europe,
this is particularly important, with a wide selection of payment
preferences, including traditional cards, e-wallets and mobile
wallets, online bank transfers and invoices. Today, payment methods
once described as nascent can quickly become mainstream, especially
in a mobile-first world. UP eCommerce Payments enables Worldpay to
quickly take advantage of new emerging payment trends.”
