35 Years of Business Experience

On this date in 1975, ACI began a long and eventful journey to become the company it is today, trusted by more than 750 customers in nearly 100 countries and at the heart of payments systems globally. Today ACI has 2,100 employees in 28 countries, and its solutions are used within 19 of the top 20 banks in the world.

Philip Heasley, CEO at ACI Worldwide said, “As we celebrate another significant milestone it is tempting to look back and reflect on the past 35 years and what we have achieved, but instead we are looking to the future of payments and continually striving to respond to our customers and the industry. On this important day we want to stop and thank our customers and business partners for all their support over the years. We look forward to working with them for many years to come.”

David Conkleton, Managing Director, Card Services at Vocalink said, "Thirty-five years in the payments industry is an impressive heritage and we are delighted to congratulate our partner ACI on this milestone. The knowledge and experience the company has gained over this time is invaluable, and benefits anyone working with them in the future."

Nancy Atkinson, senior analyst at Aite Group said, “These are interesting times for the payments space, as payments are of increasing importance to banks and their clients. With progress come challenges. Here’s to 35 more years of ACI playing an integral role in transforming this ever-evolving space!”

Colin Bowe, SVP, Head of Operations from Ocean Bank said “We have worked with ACI for many years and are thrilled to congratulate the company on its success over the past 35 years. We look forward to trusting ACI to help us with our payment systems in the coming years.”
