U.S. billers now have the choice to incorporate digital international and cash payment options for customers

ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading global provider of real-time digital payment software, today announced a partnership with KyckGlobal, a digital payments firm, to enhance digital disbursements for biller organizations across the United States, providing an array of options including international and cash payments.

KyckGlobal features a cloud-based payments engine with an array of payment types from which the recipient may select. These include PayPal, Venmo, ACH, wires, gift cards, push to card, cash and others. All available payment types originate from a single point of funding and reconciliation. Access to different payment flavors allows businesses to reach banked and underbanked customers in the U.S. and around the world. U.S.-based businesses with a global reach can eliminate disbursement delays, and payees in underbanked countries can receive cash securely in their local currency.

"KyckGlobal’s goal is to ensure businesses sending payments, such as refunds from higher educational institutions and insurance claim payments, can do so in a streamlined capacity while providing speed and choice to the consumer," said Ashish Bahl, founder and CEO of KyckGlobal. "ACI’s vast experience in the bill pay space positions them as a primary partner in helping us achieve that goal.”

"ACI continues to evolve its digital disbursement capabilities, and the partnership with KyckGlobal further strengthens our ability to meet consumers' needs—enabling them to receive funds quickly, conveniently and through methods that they most prefer," said Sanjay Gupta, head of biller segment, ACI Worldwide. "Insurance companies are a great example of businesses that need to send payments to their customers quickly.
