Leading Ohio university leverages ACI's experience to offer online
tuition and fee payments
NAPLES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
ACI
Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading international provider of electronic
payment and banking solutions, today announced that
Ohio-based Franklin University has selected ACI to power its online
payments.
As one of the largest private universities in Ohio, with a growing
enrollment approaching 10,000 undergraduate and graduate students,
Franklin University wanted a proven payment provider with technology
that required no additional programming to integrate with the
University's ERP system. It also wanted technology that provided a low
total cost of ownership. ACI's electronic payment solutions and
integrated strategic partnerships with wide-ranging ERP providers made
it the ideal payment partner for the University.
ACI is a market leader in providing electronic
payment solutions to colleges and universities with more than 300
higher education institutions in the United States and Puerto Rico
utilizing its payment processing solutions. For more than twenty years,
colleges and universities have relied on ACI's solutions to provide
students and parents with convenient and secure methods to pay tuition
and fees—phone, web and in-person payment systems for 24/7/365
convenience and reliability.
"When we set out to implement the self-service payment option with our
Colleague software, we needed a trusted vendor with strong solutions
that had a close relationship with Ellucian," said Christine Kurth,
director, University Information Systems, Franklin University. "We asked
other institutions for recommendations and they overwhelmingly praised
ACI. ACI's solution was easy to implement and fully integrated with our
Colleague system."
"We are pleased to provide Franklin University with a convenient and
secure online tuition and fees payment option," said Eric Labiak, senior
vice president, ACI Worldwide. "Our online payment options will deliver
an enhanced payment experience for the school's continuing education
students."
