Flexibility of mobile wallets addresses growing consumer need of
simplicity in paying bills
NAPLES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 23, 2018--
ACI
Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading global provider of real-time electronic
payment and banking solutions, today announced a strategic
relationship with Walletron, a leader in innovative technology solutions
for mobile wallet billing, payment and loyalty programs. ACI’s clients
will be able to enhance their customer experience by offering consumers
the ability to view bills from the wallet feature on their smartphones
and make quicker payments - within two clicks – using ACI’s
market-leading UP Bill
Payment solution.
With Walletron’s patented digital engagement technology – moBills® –
organizations can place bills, invoices, statements, compliance
documents and other notifications directly into consumers’ hands through
their mobile wallets native to both Android and Apple devices. Through
this relationship, ACI customers can augment their mobile channel
effectiveness by linking consumers to other valuable products, services
and programs directly from their bills. Additionally, consumers will not
be required to download a new app since the mobile wallet app is already
preloaded on Android and Apple devices.
“With the tremendous growth of the mobile market, electronic bill
presentment and payment has advanced into the world of smartphones,”
said Robert Craig, chief digital officer, Walletron. “By reaching
consumers where they are – on their smartphones – ACI is not only
improving the bill payment experience, but driving customer satisfaction
as well, and we’re thrilled to partner with them.”
“At ACI, we understand the need for consumers to have convenient access
to bills and to easily make payments on-the-go,” said Andrew Sajeski,
business leader, biller solutions, ACI Worldwide. “With Walletron’s
capabilities, we can further empower our customers to maximize their
reach and improve their own customer engagement through seamless mobile
billing. Our customers have requested this service in the past and we’re
happy to be able to provide it through Walletron’s moBills.”
