The Challenge
OKWU’s existing payments platform was unable to meet the university’s growing needs and the customer experience its students expected
The university relied on a complex web of systems to handle student payments and campus transactions, making the payments process costly and confusing
OKWU needed to simplify its reconciliation process
In addition, it needed a payments platform that was compatible with its new SIS
The Solution
OKWU selected the ACI Speedpay solution based on its wide range of digital payment plan options and security for all types of campus payments
The university implemented a new mobile ID feature that eliminated printed ID cards and provided more secure, convenient contactless solutions
OKWU and ACI Worldwide worked closely to implement the full solution in just 60 days
The Results
The enhanced functionality and improved customer experience led to an increase in payment plan participation rates
OKWU achieved substantial cost savings by migrating from printed to mobile IDs
OKWU also streamlined its reconciliation process, moving from three payment gateways to one
