ACI’s UP Retail Payments solution will be
utilized by Nexi to provide new, innovative services for its POS
terminal estate
Nexi, a leading provider of digital payments
technology for banks in Italy, and ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a
global leader in real-time electronic and banking payment
solutions, have joined forces to offer merchant customers of Nexi’s
partner banks innovative payment services at the point-of-sale
(POS).
Nexi, which together with its partner banks manages
approximately 1.4 million POS terminals across Italy, will use
ACI's UP Retail Payments solution to enable a VAS (value-added
services) Layer Platform on its devices. UP Retail Payments is a
complete and customizable end-to-end enterprise payments solution
that delivers a first-class digital payments experience.
Nexi’s new VAS Layer Platform utilizes ACI’s Universal Payments

existing and future VAS services. Merchants will be able to offer
their customers innovative services through the POS, such as the
processing of company meal vouchers, loyalty points and more.

us to provide merchants of our partner banks with a flexible, fast
and scalable solution, which can adapt quickly to changing market
conditions. Furthermore, ACI provides us with a solid platform on
