National Bank of Kuwait Taps ACI Worldwide for SWIFT gpi

ACI Worldwide has announced that National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) has launched SWIFT gpi services for its customers, utilising the built-in gpi capabilities that are integrated into ACI’s flexible, global payments engine. NBK customers can now benefit from same day transfer and use of funds, reduced timelines and greater transparency.

NBK achieved the milestone through upgrading its existing implementation; joining a growing global gpi community that now includes nearly 300 banks.

ACI Worldwide, the first certified vendor of SWIFT gpi solutions and a SWIFT partner for more than twenty years, enables banks around the world to take full advantage of real-time, cross-border payment opportunities with a direct connection into the SWIFT central database to monitor inbound and outbound gpi transactions. The gpi Data Service and gpi Connect capabilities are available as part of ACI’s UP Real-Time Payments solution and ACI Money Transfer System.
