Jack Henry & Associates' NetTeller and iPay users now have access to StatementRewards' highly-customized offering, turning customers' bank cards into savings finders
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Sept. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Truaxis (formerly known as BillShrink), a leading provider of data-driven personalized services, and Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (NASDAQ: JKHY), a leading provider of technology solutions and payment processing services primarily for the financial services industry, announced that Truaxis' award-winning StatementRewards platform has now gone live to more than eight million customers across approximately 2,500 banks and credit unions.
StatementRewards Platform: Delivering Value to Banks, Merchants and Customers
With StatementRewards, financial institutions and merchants can now craft specialized reward programs for loyal customers and easily implement and monitor them via a powerful dashboard. As a result, customers at the 2,500 participating banks and credit unions will now benefit from the following transaction-driven services:
-- Transaction-Based Offers -- StatementRewards' offers are tailored to
customers' existing shopping preferences and generated from their
transactions, amounts spent, location and type of purchase at national
and local merchants -- all without using any personally identifiable
information.
-- Personalized Bill Analysis -- Truaxis' proprietary technology analyzes
customers' largest recurring monthly expenses -- such as wireless plans,
TV service and gas purchases -- against millions of available plan
options and finds customers an average annual savings of $1,000.
Future StatementRewards Features for JHA Platforms
Financial institutions, merchants and customers will also benefit from the following additional StatementRewards features, all of which will be available shortly for JHA platforms:
-- Reward Discovery -- StatementRewards will show consumers any additional
rewards that may be available if they expand their relationships with
select merchants.
-- Unified Loyalty Card -- StatementRewards will enhance bank and credit
union credit and debit cards to create a multi-merchant loyalty card
that manages all merchant loyalty benefits in one place.
-- Mobile Geo-Location -- StatementRewards will be equipped to generate
more attractive rewards depending upon a user's physical proximity to
stores and past shopping habits.
-- Social Ambassadors -- Banks and merchants will be empowered to build
customer goodwill on social networks by enhancing reward offers if the
customer opts to share these offers with their friends.
StatementRewards: Fast Deployment, Minimal Investment
With minimal integration requiring little to no IT investment, StatementRewards is designed for fast deployment, detailed reporting and the highest levels of security, all without using any customer's personally identifiable information.
"When it comes to ease-of-integration, power to deliver the broadest spectrum of transaction-driven services, including the best merchant-funded offers and ultimately bottom line results, Truaxis' StatementRewards is unrivaled. We are excited about the opportunity to offer it to our bank and credit union clients and their customers," said Pete Hopkins, General Manager of Internet Solutions for Jack Henry & Associates.
There is no charge for financial institutions that elect to offer StatementRewards to their customers.
"With StatementRewards, Ohio Valley Bank has the best of both worlds -- great rewards for our customers that also benefit local merchants.
