ACI executives to present on request for pay, faster payments and cybersecurity

ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading global provider of real time electronic payment and banking solutions, today announced its participation at NACHA Payments 2019, held May 5-8 in Orlando. ACI will highlight the latest in faster payments including Request for Pay and the operational impact of faster payments on organizations. In addition, ACI will spotlight strategies to overcome cyber threats.

Dean Wallace, practice lead, Real-Time and Digital Payments, will participate in a session titled, “Request for Payment: Making Payments Contextual,” in the Crystal J room from 9:30 a.m. – 10:20 a.m. Monday, May 6.

This session will highlight how noncard, digital payments are sweeping the planet on the back of payment infrastructure modernization. The industry is seeking ways to leverage new digital technologies and strip cost out of the payments ecosystem. Request for Payment brings noncard, digital and fast payments into the hands of consumers and businesses, making payments contextual. Additional speakers include George Evers, senior vice president, Product, Real-Time Infrastructure and Commercial Applications, Vocalink, and Peter Andrew Davey, Head of Innovation, The Clearing House.

Gene Scriven, chief information security officer, will participate in a session titled, “Cyber Spotlight: Strategies to Recognize and Overcome Cyber Threats,” in the Crystal H room from 1:00 p.m. – 1:50 p.m. Monday, May 6.

This session will explore the evolution of cybersecurity risks. Cybersecurity threats run rampant and oftentimes the non-technical threats are just as dangerous as high-tech vulnerabilities. Attacks can sweep quickly from the organization to clients, vendors and other stakeholders. Additional speakers include Stephanie Zee, head of Cyber Risk for Payments and Receivables, Citi.

Mahala Johnson, director of product management, will moderate a session titled, “Operational Impact of Faster Disbursements,” in the Crystal D-F room from 8:00 a.m. – 8:50 a.m. Wednesday, May 8.

Using case studies from early movers in faster payments, this session will spotlight how organizations can launch faster payments from an operational standpoint. Although a majority of organizations expect faster payments to save them money, launching it can be tough for the operations team. Additional speakers include Eric Froust, senior director, Product Management, Early Warning, Steve Everett, director, PayPal and Keith Gray, vice president, The Clearing House.
