Carreker Offers Complete Remote Deposit Image Capture Solution, Enabling Capture from Any Location
Source Capture Suite™ Uses Common Components for Managing Image Quality and Usability; Compatible with Existing Payments Environments, Easily Integrated with Existing Infrastructure
Alternative Capture Strategy Consulting Helps Banks Choose the Right Strategy for Their Circumstances
DALLAS, TEXAS (August 2,
2005) — Carreker Corporation
(Nasdaq: CANI), a leading provider
of technology and consulting solutions
for financial institutions, announced
today that its Remote Deposit Capture
Strategy, including a complete remote
deposit capture solution called Source
Capture Suite™, is capable
of capturing check images from any
deposit-taking location at a bank,
savings & loan, credit union
or customer site. This includes corporate
centers, branches, teller stations,
small businesses, operations centers,
and ATMs, as well as cash vaults,
mortgage offices, lending offices,
private client offices, and bank
by mail offices.
Remote deposit capture has emerged as one of the most attractive technologies enabled by advances in check electronification and the enactment of Check 21 legislation. By capturing checks earlier in the deposit process, banks estimate they can realize sizeable revenue increases and significantly reduce their costs through reduced transportation and processing requirements and improved float.
Carreker’s offering consists of a full set of technologies in the Source Capture Suite™ and a consultative service, Alternative Capture.
Embedded in all components of Carreker’s remote deposit capture suite are common, open, integrated technologies for image quality and usability, duplicate item detection, item level qualification and balancing, image replacement document (IRD) file creation, and electronic exchange. All are designed to be compatible with the user’s existing payments environment and to be easily integrated with the existing technology infrastructure.
The popularity of remote deposit capture with banks’ corporate and small business customers is the source of the significant product revenue potential. Other major benefits include: u niform standards, policies and service level agreements; reduced maintenance, conversion and interface requirements at central operations; consistently high quality data and images for clearing and archival purposes; and reduced risk exposure and fraud losses.
Source Capture Suite™ includes the following components for supporting check electronification at virtually all possible locations. They can be deployed separately or as an integrated suite:
- Corporate Capture is
designed for corporate customers
that receive as many as 10,000
items a day. The system can be
used to capture payments and remittances
in batches and transmit them to
the bank electronically. Carreker’s Corporate
Capture has been deployed
by Creative Payment Solution (CPS)
for corporate customers with up
to 3,000 items a day.
- Teller Capture enables efficient check image capture and balancing at the teller station, while the customer is present. Teller Capture can be combined with Branch Capture for maximum deposit capture efficiency. Teller Capture is being deployed by Wells Fargo for 3,300 stores.
- Branch Capture allows bank branches to capture deposits in batches, behind the teller counter. The system accommodates a wide variety of volume and processing window scenarios to accommodate branches in major cities or very remote locations.
- Web Capture is

browser-based solution offering

and requiring minimal software
