The partnership combines a variety of imaging hardware, software and services options that meet needs across all major distributed capture channels, including branch front counter and back counter, consumer, small business and commercial remote deposit capture.

"We have a strong commitment to the payments industry," said Bud Weist, vice president of sales and marketing, Epson System Device Group. "Our best-of-breed hardware solutions work seamlessly with Goldleaf's software to support financial institutions, whether they are looking for teller, back counter or remote deposit capture. Goldleaf and Epson have the stability and scope to deliver quality, innovative solutions, with the service and support to back it all up."

"Our strategic partnership with Epson enables us to extend our comprehensive solution offerings and certified device support across branch, commercial remote deposit and even mass market remote deposit deployments," Todd Shiver, Goldleaf EVP, explained. "We believe Epson represents a compelling option for financial institutions as a single source hardware supplier across all financial institution deposit channels and market segments. Together our companies have the breadth of offerings, depth of expertise and scale to handle tasks of any size, combined with the business structure to provide personal support and superior service. Increasing the efficiency of payments is one of the highest priorities for financial institutions today, and we are committed to continually improving this process."

Goldleaf joined Epson's Envision(sm) partner program in July 2008, and has continued to work closely with Epson to develop complementary hardware and software solutions that benefit financial institutions. Goldleaf has certified Epson's TM-J9000/9100 check scanner with integrated inkjet printer, check imaging and ID scanner, as well as Epson's CaptureOne(tm) check scanner. Goldleaf also supports Epson's newly introduced line of scanners for consumer and small business markets.

The partnership between Goldleaf and Epson brings together two of the payments industry's leading technology companies to provide a complete array of financial solutions. Integrating Goldleaf's software offerings with Epson's product suite ensures the delivery of highly reliable distributed capture solutions that improve overall productivity, streamline operations and reduce check processing costs.
