Naples, FLA, Dec. 21, 2017 — ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading global provider of real-time electronic payment and banking solutions, today announced that HyperPay, a leading payment service provider (PSP) in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, has extended its relationship with ACI to offer merchants integrated real-time fraud prevention for eCommerce and mobile payments.The MENA region’s eCommerce marketplace is experiencing double-digit growth—with estimates at more than USD $51 billion in 2017. Despite the growth opportunity, the diversity of payments within the region presents challenges for both local and international businesses as they grapple with an increase in fraud.

As a long-standing partner, we fully trust ACI to deliver a sophisticated, real-time fraud detection and prevention solution that protects our customers.”“eCommerce in the MENA region is growing rapidly, as consumers move from cash-based transactions to using cards and other online payment methods. As this shift – with mobile acting as an additional catalyst – gathers pace, retailers need to gain the trust of consumers and protect themselves against the risk of fraud across multiple channels,” said Manish Patel, general manager, Middle East, Africa and South Asia, ACI Worldwide. “Simple integration of new payment types and acquirers has helped HyperPay to achieve 35 percent year-on-year growth, and we are confident that with ACI’s UP Payments Risk Management solution standing behind every transaction, this strong growth can continue.”ACI ReD Shield is a fully integrated part of the UP eCommerce Payments solution, which also includes the Mobile Commerce SDK (mSDK), used by HyperPay to deliver seamless mobile checkout experiences for merchants across Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and UAE.
