Mexican financial technology company Mexipay
will leverage ACI’s Digital Central Infrastructure solution to
enable new payment options in Mexico
ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ:ACIW), an original innovator in global
payments technology, and Mexipay, a leading Mexican financial
technology company, have announced the extension of their
partnership to enhance Mexico’s real-time payments ecosystem, with
the aim of driving instant payments adoption and boosting economic
growth and financial inclusion for Mexico’s businesses and
consumers.
Mexipay will utilize ACI’s Digital Central Infrastructure
solution, part of the award-winning ACI Enterprise Payments
Platform, to address the need for enhanced real-time payment
services. The platform will be built on the global ISO 20022
standard and will offer additional features such as Request to Pay
and Alias management, providing participants with opportunities for
new payments and revenue streams.
According to ACI’s latest Prime Time for Real-Time report, 3.8
billion real-time payments were processed in Mexico in 2023, making
it the 10th largest real-time payments market in the world. But
despite its head start in the region, the country is one of the
slowest-growing real-time markets in Latin America, with a
projected CAGR of 7.8% between 2023 and 2028.
“We are excited to extend our partnership with Mexipay to bring
the benefits of real-time payments to the Mexican economy,” said
Alberto Olivares, head of Latin America, ACI Worldwide. “Latin
America is one of the most exciting growth regions for our company.
Partnering with fintechs and new market entrants is crucial to
drive the advancement of real-time payment ecosystems. Mexico has a
fantastic opportunity to maximize the use of its real-time rails
and replicate the success of other countries in the region to drive
economic growth and financial inclusion.”
“We are proud to be partnering with ACI Worldwide, the global
leader in real-time payments technology and software,” said Fabian
Uribe, co-founder and CEO of Mexipay. “This is a transformational
partnership that will optimize Mexipay’s technological and market
penetration capabilities to help government, public, and private
sectors to advance the use of real-time payments in Latin
America.”
