As COVID-19 complicates in-person payments,
digital payments provide convenient and safe way to pay tuition and
bills
ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading global provider of
real-time digital payment software and solutions, today announced
that LeMoyne-Owen College has implemented ACI Speedpay to offer
students a digital bill payment experience during and beyond the
pandemic. The college has employed the solution’s Student Payment
Portal feature, which will enable students and parents to securely
manage and streamline college payments online.
LeMoyne-Owen College is a four-year liberal arts college located
in Memphis. With the need for a new bill payment system that could
easily integrate with its existing student information
system—Ellucian PowerCampus—and provide new payment options for
students, the college implemented ACI Speedpay. It now has a
single, integrated platform that will power bill payments on and
off campus. Whether paying tuition fees, parking tickets or lab
fees, students simply visit one area of the website to view and pay
all their bills online. In addition, students can add a mobile
wallet feature for a more convenient payment experience.
With modern mobile and web options that prominently display the
college’s brand, the ACI portal also includes a communication
feature, where students and parents can receive updates from the
college when necessary.
“As we prepared to safely open our doors to students in the
midst of a pandemic, we needed to ensure that they would be able to
access bills and make payments whether they were doing so virtually
or on campus,” said Charles Elliott, vice president, IT,
LeMoyne-Owen College. “With ACI Speedpay, we are not only providing
students with no-touch payment options, which are safer during the
pandemic, but also a communication feature through the Student
Payment Portal, which is proving useful when we need to notify them
of new procedures throughout the fall semester.”
“Higher education institutions are facing unprecedented changes
this fall semester as COVID-19 safety procedures complicate the
back-to-school season,” said Sanjay Gupta, executive vice
president, ACI Worldwide. “With ACI Speedpay, LeMoyne-Owen College
can offer students new and convenient payment channels as well as
payment plan options to help ease the return to school and simplify
payment processes.”
ACI Speedpay offers students industry-leading security for all
their campus payment needs. The solution’s cloud-based Student
Payment Portal reduces costs, such as development and licensing
fees, and reduces staff time spent on payments. Moreover, it
provides higher education institutions with a modern, customized
offering that extends the look and feel of their current website.
More than 300 higher education institutions trust ACI for improving
student satisfaction and payments security with their campus
commerce systems.
