The partnership empowers ACI’s financial institution (FI) customers to deliver optimal bill pay and online financial management experiences to their end users, ultimately resulting in improved consumer engagement and loyalty.

ACI is leveraging its Universal Payments (UP) framework to integrate multiple Yodlee API services—including aggregation, eBills, Alerts, PersonalFinance, FinApps and FastLink—across its online banking and ACI UP Banking Bill Payment solution suite. Through this partnership, ACI further underscores its strategic commitment to delivering a world-class banking bill pay solution that includes robust ebill content, PDF statements from an additional 450 billers and an improved end-user experience—powered by ACI Universal Payments.

ACI customers with Yodlee PersonalFinance not only benefit from deeper integration, but also from the opportunity to utilize ACI’s market-leading bill pay solutions, providing end users with the convenience of managing their finances and bill payments across multiple accounts, from a single online site. By offering a consolidated view of all financial accounts and bill payment data, financial institutions develop deeper relationships and improve overall engagement with their end users, creating a more loyal and profitable client base.
