–30 credit union clients gain immediate access to modern technology platform–

Vista, Calif. Jan. 27, 2011 CUsource, a Montana-based credit union service organization, and Bluepoint Solutions, a 2010 CUNA Tech Council “Best of Show” winner and provider of remote deposit capture, item processing and enterprise content management solutions, have partnered to provide modern check processing technology to credit unions. CUsource will centrally host Bluepoint’s end-to-end item processing suite, as well as branch and home capture solutions.

“In mid-2010 CUsource began searching for a more advanced, comprehensive item processing platform,” said Shirley Bailey, President and CEO of CUsource. “After a thorough evaluation period, we determined that Bluepoint’s suite of check processing solutions would enhance the level and scope of service we provide to our member credit unions.”

CUsource, LLC is a Credit Union Service Organization (CUSO) in Montana offering quality products and services to credit unions and other cooperative organizations including data processing, print mail services, real estate services security services and draft services. The CUSO currently provides various draft services for 52 credit unions representing more than 400,000 members, and processes approximately 17 million items annually. Bluepoint’s solutions, including item processing, branch capture and home capture, will initially be implemented in 65 branches across approximately 30 different credit unions.

“We wanted a partner that understood and complemented our goals as a CUSO, and Bluepoint was the clear choice,” continued Bailey. “Bluepoint’s modern platform provides increased functionality in our existing product offerings and will support the addition of future offerings such as merchant capture. This is significant for all of our credit union clients, but is especially noteworthy for many of the smaller credit unions that up until now, have considered this type of technology out-of-reach.”

“Credit unions are being forced to do more with less,” said Hal Tilbury, founder and CEO of Bluepoint Solutions. “CUsource is leading the way in helping credit unions address this challenge by providing access to sophisticated technology. We are pleased to partner with CUsource to provide credit unions a single end-to-end check-processing platform that encompasses multiple capture points, image exchange and long-term archival and research.”

–Industry leaders join forces to introduce robust mobile platform to community financial institutions–

VISTA, Calif. Sept. 16, 2010 Bluepoint Solutions, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and innovator in remote deposit capture (RDC), image-based item processing and enterprise content management (ECM) software technology for financial institutions, and Access Softek, a provider of home banking solutions for financial institutions, have partnered to offer community financial institutions a complete mobile banking application that seamlessly integrates mobile remote deposit capture capabilities. The integration of mobile banking and mobile remote deposit capture into a single application provides a more robust and user-friendly experience for the end-user.

Bluepoint’s mobile RDC platform, QwikDeposit To Go powered by Mitek Systems’ patented IMagePROVE technology, is now available as an integrated component of Access Softek’s proven Mobile Finance Manager, a downloadable online banking program that resides directly on a user’s smart phone. The integrated solution provides financial institutions with a sophisticated, complete mobile application that enables account holders to perform traditional banking services, as well as deposit checks, all from a single application on their mobile device.

“There is no denying the consumer demand for mobile banking services,” said Chris Doner, CEO of Access Softek. “The explosive growth of smart phones makes mobile remote deposit capture the next logical step for banks looking to offer a complete mobile application to account holders. Mobile banking users are primarily motivated by convenience. When an institution offers mobile deposit, it offers the most convenient deposit solution for its customers.  This will inevitably result in getting a higher amount of deposits relative to institutions that do not offer mobile deposit. We have partnered with Bluepoint to extend our mobile banking application by integrating their best-of-breed mobile deposit technology. We are pleased to offer financial institutions a sophisticated mobile application that, until now, has been out-of-reach for most smaller institutions.”

Integrating mobile capture directly within a mobile banking application creates a more user-friendly experience, by allowing the accountholder to manage almost every banking function from the convenience of a mobile device. Industry analysts anticipate a high adoption rate for mobile remote deposit capture solutions, especially among current users of mobile banking applications. Juniper Research anticipates the number of people accessing banking services via mobile phones is set to increase to 816 million by 2011, a 10-fold increase since 2007. According to research conducted by research firm Mercatus, 59 percent of today’s mobile banking customers are likely to adopt mobile remote deposit capture if the technology is offered by their financial institution.

“Bluepoint has always been focused on bringing innovative technology solutions to financial institutions,” said Hal Tilbury, founder and CEO of Bluepoint Solutions. “Our most recent mobile RDC launch was met by incredible enthusiasm by small to mid-size institutions that understand that this technology will be important to current and future accountholders. We are looking forward to working with Access Softek to take this one step further, and launch one of the industry’s first complete mobile banking with check capture applications.”

Solution provides additional convenience, security and workflow efficiencies

VISTA, Calif. June 16, 2010. Bluepoint Solutions, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and innovator in remote deposit capture (RDC), image-based item processing and enterprise content management (ECM) software technology for financial institutions, announced a strategic partnership with SIGNiX, a provider of a digital signature solution that allows users to securely “sign” documents from multiple locations including the Internet.

Bluepoint’s eSign & Capture product captures PDF documents and automatically specifies where signatures are needed for execution. The document is then made available in-branch through the existing eSign platform for signature. In partnership with SIGNiX, eSign & Capture now makes the document available for digital signature through the SIGNiX service, after all the required in-branch signatures are collected. Once SIGNiX collects all required signatures over the Internet, the document returns to eSign and is automatically indexed and filed to Bluepoint’s ECM system, FASTdocs. The document owner is automatically notified via email when the process is completed.

“Financial institutions can now collect signatures online with the same level of confidence they have collecting signatures in-branch,” said Jay Jumper, chief executive officer of SIGNiX. “Digital signatures are more secure than traditional methods and stand uncontested in court, due to the use of sophisticated public key cryptography. By allowing customers and members to sign documents from outside the branch via our combined solution, banks and credit unions will save time and money by providing a convenient, paperless service without sacrificing security. We have a large installed base of users and have seen first-hand how this type of technology improves operations. We look forward to working with Bluepoint to bring this new capability to its clients.” eSign & Capture, enhanced with SIGNiX’s remote capabilities, expedites and streamlines the document-signing process by cutting out time-consuming steps in document processing. The solution eliminates paper document scanning and storage, while providing immediate enterprise-wide access to all electronic documents. By identifying which document fields require signatures and tracking those signatures as they’re added to the document, the software prohibits document archival until all necessary signatures have been obtained, ensuring compliance.

“We are pleased to partner with such an innovative provider,” said Hal Tilbury, chief executive officer and founder of Bluepoint Solutions. “Integrating SIGNiX’s technology further enhances the functionality of our eSign & Capture product as part of our overall enterprise content management strategy. This partnership is a result of our continued commitment to providing our customers with the most useful and innovative technology.”

About SIGNiX

SIGNiX, headquartered in Chattanooga, TN, offers a patented digital signature solution that enables individuals to “sign” documents via the Internet, over the phone or face to face, helping to increase speed, accuracy and security over traditional, paper and ink-based signature processes. Users become “known customers” through a web or call center session so that documents requiring a signature can be legally executed online without the costs or delays of paper processing. SIGNiX’s highly secure e-signature service, which requires no hardware installations or software downloads, enables companies to quickly obtain the necessary signatures to execute new contracts or authorize transactions, ultimately helping to turn more verbal commitments into legally-executed, revenue generating relationships.

Compact size ideal for capturing documents at point-of-presentment

VISTA, Calif. May 05, 2010. Bluepoint Solutions, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and leading innovator in remote deposit capture (RDC), image-based item processing and enterprise content management software technology for financial institutions, has certified the Canon imageFORMULA P-150 Scan-tini Personal Document Scanner as FASTdocs ready. FASTdocs is Bluepoint’s premiere client-centric, electronic document management (EDM) solution.

Bluepoint’s FASTdocs solution enables scanning and electronic sharing of items at multiple workstations within a financial institution, even between branches. The imageFORMULA P-150 scanner measures only 11-inches long, 3.7-inches wide and 1.6-inches high and weighs approximately two pounds. The device’s compact size makes it ideal to deploy at individual workstations throughout a financial institution. When combined with FASTdocs, the P-150 scanner supports Bluepoint’s best practices approach, including capturing documents at the point of presentment and making document images immediately available to all end-users throughout the organization. This approach improves data integrity by eliminating the need to physically transfer documents and minimizes the number of employees required to handle the document.

“We have always encouraged our clients to capture documents at the point-of-presentment,” said Hal Tilbury, founder and CEO of Bluepoint Solutions. “This is critical if financial institutions want to fully take advantage of the cost-savings, work-flow efficiencies and improved accuracy of data afforded by an electronic document management. The economical price point combined with the compact size of the Canon imageFORMULA P-150 scanner makes this a logical scanner to pair with our FASTdocs solution.”

Bluepoint’s approach to document management is rooted in proven best practices. According to this approach, capturing documents should take place at the point-of-presentment. Bluepoint has helped hundreds of financial institutions improve their electronic document management strategies by implementing best practices including member-centric filing systems, intuitive file structures, the ability to capture all document types regardless of the presentment point and finally, the institution of a universal document repository.
