CheckFree Distribution Network

In a world of instant messages, express delivery and real-time news, today’s consumers measure convenience in seconds, not hours or days. Your customers are no different — they expect immediate access, flexibility and convenience. With CheckFree Distribution you can deliver all three — by providing your customers with the ability to view and pay bills anytime, from anywhere, at any one of hundreds of sites on the Web. For you, this translates into multiple opportunities to maximize your brand presence and expand your market reach.

Recent studies have shown that many consumers prefer the convenience of viewing and paying multiple bills at one online location. Leading industry analyst, Jupiter Communications, found that 47 percent of those interested in electronic billing and payment would choose to view and pay all their bills at a single site. Through CheckFree Distribution, consumers have the convenience of paying their bills at more than 650 banks, credit unions, brokerages, and Web portals, including Bank of America, Charles Schwab, the United States Postal Service and Yahoo! Finance. Our comprehensive distribution network expands your Internet presence and provides your customers with the conveniences of electronic billing and payment from every corner of the Web.

CheckFree Distribution gives you multiple opportunities to distribute your bill all over the Web. These complementary consumer endpoints provide additional branding opportunities at the locations where your electronic billing and payment customers already visit. Plus, many of these organizations collaborate with billers like you to develop complementary marketing programs designed to promote the availability of your bill at their site.

By giving your customers the flexibility to pay their bills where they want, you strengthen their brand loyalty. What’s more, offering electronic billing and payment services at multiple locations enables you to reach more customers, thereby decreasing the costs associated with paper bills.
