Case Study: Shasta College achieves Nacha and PCI compliance in just three weeks with ACI Worldwide's ACI Speedpay

Shasta College Achieves Nacha and PCI Compliance in Just Three Weeks With ACI Worldwide

Shasta College, a community college in Redding, California, faced imminent Nacha account validation requirements for internet-initiated debits and risked fines if its payments solution did not comply. Their existing provider could not meet the new Nacha operating rule or integrate smoothly with their Ellucian Colleague SIS, so Shasta College selected ACI Worldwide and its ACI Speedpay solution to rapidly restore compliance.

ACI Worldwide implemented ACI Speedpay (pre-integrated with Anthology/Ellucian/Oracle) and, with partner Doctums Global and a pre‑negotiated Foundation for California Community Colleges pricing agreement, completed onboarding in three weeks with minimal impact to campus resources. ACI Worldwide’s solution met Nacha (and PCI) requirements, expanded digital payment and back‑office settlement capabilities, eliminated the lengthy RFP process, and delivered a 75% reduction in implementation time.
