Real-time payments firm ACI Worldwide is partnering with NORBr, a payment services distributor platform for digital merchants, to facilitate merchants’ connection to ACI’s solutions.
Nigel Reavley, country manager of France, ACI Worldwide said in a press release on Thursday (May 12) that the company’s merchant payment solutions will be available via NORBr to offer retailers and third-party payment service providers (PSP) worldwide the “tools and technology to increase conversion rates and grow their businesses.”
The collaboration enables merchants to link to ACI’s merchant tools, including ACI Secure eCommerce, ACI Omni-Commerce and ACI Fraud Management for Merchants.

As merchants move into new markets and expand their customer bases, it’s becoming more difficult to provide everything merchants need in one place or across just one or two PSPs, PYMNTS reported last month.
In a perfect setting, merchants could quickly and safely launch their own ability to accept payments on a case-by-case, market-by-market basis. But the technological heavy lifting demands time and money.
Using a single application programming interface (API), NORBr specializes in linking retailers with certified payments providers and handles payments management as well as benchmarking, all at no charge, per the release.
ACI solutions available via the NORBr Marketplace include secure eCommerce, omnichannel payment processing and fraud management.
“Against the backdrop of rising eCommerce transactions in Europe and worldwide, we are delighted to welcome global payments giant ACI Worldwide to our payment network,” said Janelle Sha, NORBr’s executive vice president of strategy and growth.
