Case Study: Bank of Abyssinia achieves rapid, scalable, secure payments modernization with ACI Worldwide's Issuing solution

ACI® Issuing™ Solution Modernizes Payment Capabilities for Bank of Abyssinia

Bank of Abyssinia needed to modernize its payments capabilities as Ethiopian consumers shifted toward secure and contactless card payments and the government pushed a banking modernization initiative. Facing capacity constraints, legacy technology and nimble competitors, the bank required a scalable, available, flexible and personalized payments platform — and selected ACI Worldwide’s ACI Issuing solution to address these challenges.

ACI Worldwide implemented an on‑premise ACI Issuing deployment that provides full card management for debit, credit and prepaid (physical and virtual) cards, delivered remotely in just nine months. The solution gave the Bank of Abyssinia a stable, scalable platform that reduced payments risk, accelerated time to market, exceeded the bank’s expectations and positioned the bank for revenue growth and future enhancements such as digital wallets.
