Bruce Baillio, President of SMKG said, ‘This is a natural addition to the VelocityMoney.com financial services portal and a natural evolution in our relationship with Payment Data. We are already partnering with Payment Data to market globally-branded, prepaid debit cards and to resell their merchant credit card acquiring services. This new service makes our portal even more robust.’ Mr. Baillio further stated, ‘It was important for VelocityMoney customers to be able to pay anyone and to be able to pay from any bank account. We chose Payment Data’s bill payment platform due to their ability to implement in four weeks or less and that their platform is bank independent. We were excited to learn that the system is flexible enough to allow for multiple payment accounts including checking, savings, investment accounts and prepaid debit cards. We also took comfort in knowing that Payment Data’s offering is fully licensed under US Patent 7,021,530 that relates to bill payments made with debit and stored value cards.’
The bill payment services that will be available on VelocityMoney.com will allow enrolled account holders to make approved payments to anyone twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
