LAS VEGAS — Diebold Inc. (NYSE: DBD), First Data Corp. (NYSE: FDC), ACI Worldwide and Brixlogic have announced the use of an Opteva advanced-function ATM to communicate to ACI's transaction host using the Interactive Financial eXchange message format, according to a news release.
IFX, an emerging standard message format that uses XML Web technology, provides financial institutions with enhanced functionality of Web technology and improved channel integration.
"Diebold embraces new standards such as IFX technology and continuously works with our partners to drive this new technology and help customers migrate to IFX at their own pace in response to their particular business needs," said James Trocme, senior director of Global Software Products at Diebold, in the news release.
Diebold uses Brixlogic's XML-based message protocol technology to process IFX transactions from its Agilis software. Brixlogic's XML contract-driven development studio enabled Diebold to increase the speed of its IFX implementation and obtain interoperability with ACI and First Data.
