ACI Connetic adds Swift ledger support for tokenized payments. ACI Worldwide is extending its cloud-native payments hub to help banks route and manage tokenized deposit transactions alongside traditional payment flows. 24 Sep 2026 08:17 IST ACI Worldwide is extending its ACI Connetic payments hub to support transactions orchestrated through Swift's blockchain-based ledger, allowing banks to manage tokenized deposit payments alongside traditional payment types through the same operational framework. The capability is designed to help banks avoid creating separate processes, teams and infrastructure for digital-asset payments as tokenized deposits move from pilot programs toward production use. ACI said the integration will allow institutions to use existing payment controls, workflows and infrastructure to route, monitor, manage and reconcile these transactions. Bringing tokenized payments into existing operations. Swift announced its blockchain-based ledger in 2025 and has since confirmed that it is ready for initial use, with 17 banks across six continents piloting use cases. The ledger is designed to enable banks to move tokenized deposits across borders and outside traditional banking operating hours. For banks, however, incorporating these transactions into existing payment operations can require dedicated processes and manual intervention. ACI Connetic is intended to bring Swift ledger transactions into the same environment banks use to manage other payment flows. "Digital assets should extend a bank's payment capabilities, not force it to build a second payment operation," said Craig Ramsey, SVP, Head of Account-to-Account Payments, ACI Worldwide. "Banks need a practical way to operationalize tokenized deposits at scale using the people, controls and processes they already trust. With ACI Connetic, payments orchestrated through Swift's ledger can be managed alongside other payment flows within a common operational framework." Intelligent routing across payment rails. ACI Connetic brings payment types, payment rails and operational controls together on a cloud-native platform. Banks can originate, route and manage tokenized deposit payments alongside traditional payment flows through a single integration. The platform uses bank- and customer-defined rules to select a clearing and settlement path. This allows institutions to balance factors such as speed, cost, availability and customer requirements while maintaining controls and visibility across the payment lifecycle. The development comes as banks explore ways to introduce new payment models without creating additional operational complexity. As tokenized deposits move toward production use, payment infrastructure will need to support these transactions at scale while maintaining existing operational and compliance processes.

ACI Worldwide has expanded its cloud-native payments hub, ACI Connetic, to support transactions through Swift's blockchain-based ledger alongside conventional payment flows. The integration enables banks to manage tokenised deposit payments and traditional transactions within a single operating model, using existing infrastructure and workflows. Swift announced its blockchain ledger last year, and 17 banks across six continents are now piloting the technology. The ledger facilitates cross-border transfers of tokenised deposits beyond individual institutions and traditional banking hours. ACI Connetic uses bank-defined rules to select clearing and settlement routes automatically, allowing financial institutions to manage payment speed, costs and availability across different payment types through one integration. Craig Ramsey, Senior Vice President at ACI Worldwide, said digital assets should extend banks' payment capabilities without requiring separate payment operations. ACI will demonstrate the new functionality at the Sibos conference on 30 September.
