The RDM software is bank agnostic so merchants will not be required to change their existing banking relationships.

"We are very pleased to be working with ECS to sell our Remote Deposit Capture (RDC) products through the ISO sales channel," said Douglas Newman, President and Chief Executive Officer of RDM Corporation. "ECS is a rapidly growing firm and we look forward to assisting them in servicing their existing customers as well as in securing new business with our industry leading products. We believe our new Simply Deposit(TM) product that was designed specifically for small business will be especially well received." Newman further stated, "RDM is uniquely positioned to be able to provide an end to end check electronification platform as we can provide both the hardware and software required."

Derron Winfrey, President ECS said, "We are working closely with RDM to add a full service element for our customers. Our programming teams are completing an interface allowing us to showcase our ACH abilities as well as interfacing with our proprietary National Database and three stage collections process. Utilizing RDM's ability to capture and process items from the back office combined with ECS's abilities in database customization and check recovery will give our merchants a complete check conversion system. Offering Remote Deposit Capture will not only allow them to electronically deposit checks without needing to go to the bank branch to make a deposit, but provide them with complete recovery management for items that do not clear upon the initial presentment. This will save them time and money and give them faster availability of funds from those deposits."
