overall video usage on website benchmark score
ACI Worldwide’s social video strategy leans strongly toward insight-led content, with event coverage providing a meaningful secondary focus and product video used more selectively. Distribution is concentrated on Facebook and Instagram, with LinkedIn playing a smaller supporting role. On the website, video is a prominent part of the homepage and product experience, using hero backgrounds and animated visuals to introduce capabilities and create a polished visual atmosphere. The clearest opportunity is to extend that strength into customer stories, careers, and conversion journeys, where video is either absent or primarily decorative rather than serving a storytelling or proof-building role.

ACI Worldwide posts video less frequently than both the Payments sub-category and Finance overall. Its mix is heavily weighted towards insight and event content, with far less product content and no customer, brand or recruitment videos compared with industry peers.
Social video posts over time
Facebook is ACI Worldwide’s leading video channel, followed by Instagram, with activity concentrated in a few months rather than spread consistently across the period. LinkedIn and YouTube play much smaller roles, and there is no TikTok activity.
Compare with:
ACI Worldwide mainly posts insight content, supported by a substantial share of event videos and a small amount of product content. The absence of customer, brand and recruitment content makes the strategy narrow, suggesting an opportunity to test a broader mix.

ACI Worldwide website
Website video analysis
ACI Worldwide uses video most effectively across its homepage and product pages. Prominent hero backgrounds create an immediate visual experience, while animated product visuals continue to explain capabilities throughout the site.
Resource video is more selective, but the explainers that appear are placed prominently near the top of the page. By contrast, customer stories contain no video, and careers and contact experiences rely more on decorative background treatments than purposeful storytelling.
Overall, the video strategy is heavily focused on product presentation and site-level visual atmosphere. Expanding into customer proof, recruitment stories, and conversion-focused content would create a more balanced and strategically useful experience.

Strengths
Video is a major part of the homepage experience, creating an immediate visual impact and continuing across solution and CTA sections. Product pages are especially strong, consistently pairing prominent hero videos with supporting animations and product visuals further down the page. Resource pages also use video effectively when present, placing explainers where visitors can see them right away.
Weaknesses
Customer stories are the clearest weakness, relying entirely on non-video formats to communicate customer evidence. Video plays only a limited strategic role on the contact page because it appears as a decorative background lower on the page rather than supporting the main conversion journey. Careers coverage is also inconsistent, with video used as visual treatment instead of dedicated recruitment content.
Opportunities
Adding video to customer stories could make existing customer evidence more engaging and persuasive. Conversion pages could use more purposeful video to explain next steps, build confidence, or encourage visitors to take action. Careers content could also benefit from recruitment-focused videos that highlight employees, workplace culture, and company values rather than relying mainly on decorative backgrounds.
Key takeaway
Video is already a consistent and prominent tool for introducing products and explaining capabilities. Its strongest applications are concentrated on the homepage and product pages, where it supports both first impressions and deeper exploration. The next step is to extend that strength into customer proof, recruitment, and conversion journeys, where video currently has a much smaller role.
Video usage on key pages:
View methodology
ACI Worldwide uses video most prominently on its homepage and product pages, where hero backgrounds and supporting animations make product capabilities feel immediate and engaging; resources also use explainers well when video is present. Customer stories are the biggest gap, while careers and contact pages lean on decorative video rather than purposeful storytelling, creating an opportunity to extend video into customer proof, recruitment, and conversion journeys.
