Global payments leader ACI Worldwide has partnered with cryptocurrency payment processor BitPay to expand digital asset solutions for payment service providers (PSPs) via ACI’s Payments Orchestration platform. The collaboration enables seamless acceptance and management of cryptocurrencies, including stablecoins, alongside traditional payment methods.

The move responds to growing demand from PSPs and merchants for flexible payment options, supporting use cases such as cross-border B2B settlements and treasury operations. ACI aims to remain rail-agnostic, continuing to build its digital asset ecosystem through strategic partnerships as regulatory frameworks evolve.

BitPay CEO Stephen Pair highlighted that the partnership will make digital currencies more practical for everyday commerce. By combining BitPay’s crypto expertise with ACI’s global reach, businesses can unlock new payment opportunities, from simple crypto acceptance to complex international transactions, further integrating digital currencies into mainstream financial systems.
