ACI helps India's biggest bank upgrade its ATM network

Business Wire has published an article stating that Nasdaq-traded ACI Worldwide, a major provider of software and solutions for digital payments in real time, has struck a partnership deal with the State Bank of India (SBI)—the biggest bank in India's public center.

ACI has helped the bank to upgrade and expand its payment switching system by means of ACI's Retail Payments solution.

It has modernized the infrastructure SBI uses for its ATM network and PoS (point-of-sale). Over 440 mln customers have accounts in its 22,000 branches around the country.

Apart from that, the bank has branches in more than 30 countries globally. The ATM network consists of almost 60,000 cash machines, all part of the bank's payments switching system, as well as its PoS and eCommerce channels.

To help the bank upgrade and expand, ACI is employing its Retail Payments solution. Thanks to this solution, SBI's ATMs will be able to acquire the cards of such giants as Visa, MasterCard and RuPay and manage ATM/PoS authorizations.

After the upgrade, the volume of transactions processed has risen to more than 30 mln per day.
