For some consumers, such as the unbanked or underbanked populations, cash payments are essential. With ACI Speedpay and InComm Payments’ VanillaDirect Pay, consumers will follow the account provider’s process to get a barcode printed, scanned from a website, or sent to their phone via text or through ACI’s moBills digital wallet feature. Consumers can then take this barcode payment token to more than 60,000 participating retail agents (including Dollar General and Family Dollar stores) with the appropriate amount of cash, including any convenience fee, and pay their bills—such as utilities, higher education, cable, insurance and more.
