Intell-A-Check Celebrates Ten-Year Anniversary

BELLEVILLE, NJ – Intell-A-Check, Corp., a leading provider of electronic payment solutions for Fortune 1000 companies, announced its ten-year anniversary of offering the most robust, rich set of tools available in the payment processing industry. Intell-A-Check offers integrated solutions for call center, Web and IVR payment processing that can be either client hosted or outsourced and hosted by Intell-A-Check.

Intell-A-Check’s payment processing solutions enable clients to achieve significant cost reductions and service improvements through powerful technologies, excellent service and competitive pricing. The firm has experienced tremendous growth over the last 10 years by adding many new clients and by providing expanding services to existing ones.

Joe Gage, CEO of Intell-A-Check, said, “The last 10 years have been a great time of growth for the payment processing industry as a whole. During 2003 alone, NACHA expects the number of electronic check (ACH) payments to double the number reached in 2002, possibly exceeding one billion.”

“We are very pleased to celebrate our ten year anniversary serving the payment processing industry,” Mr. Gage continued. “Intell-A-Check’s mission-critical technology and excellent service have enabled the company to make great strides in the industry and to offer our clients payment processing solutions that improve their overall operations and bottom lines.”

Since 1993, Intell-A-Check has provided the most reliable and powerful electronic payment processing solutions available anywhere. Consolidated Edison of New York, an Intell-A-Check client for over eight years, expects to use Intell-A-Check’s solutions to process more than 4.2 million payments this year, representing over $1 billion. Like many Intell-A-Check clients, Con Edison has integrated Intell-A-Check with its automated voice systems (IVR/VRU), call center, Web, direct billing system interfaces and recently installed customer service kiosks.

“For the first six months of this year, we have already surpassed our goal,” said George Roach, systems specialist and administrator of electronic payment programs at Con Edison. “Our company is extremely pleased with the quality and level of performance of both the Intell-A-Check product and staff.” In the year 2000, because of Intell-A-Check’s powerful payment processing technologies, Con Edison was inducted into the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History for its innovative use of payment processing applications.

Recognizing that many businesses need powerful, robust and integrated payment processing systems, but don’t always want to spend the time or money to build them in-house, Intell-A-Check offers the industry’s leading outsourced solution. Using the latest proven, reliable and secure technologies, Intell-A-Check makes it easy and cost-effective to integrate payment processing in call centers, IVR/VRU, customer management, order entry, billing and other enterprise systems.

Using a secure Internet connection, payments are routed from all appropriate company departments and systems to the Intell-A-Check processing center. Intell-A-Check performs all required payment transaction processing and database management, and routes transactions to the appropriate financial institution, third party check authorization/guarantee providers and credit and debit card processors.
