Wisconsin Bankers Association Introduces BSG Financial
Wisconsin Bankers Association (WBA) recently introduced BSG Financial as its newest endorsed vendor. As a proven leader in the management of profit-enhancing programs for the financial industry, the company has developed a number of innovative programs that work to improve a financial institution’s bottom line. BSG Financial’s Re$ubmitlt ® program is a turnkey solution for returned deposit item collections, with proven success in capturing 100% of the face value of all items collected electronically. When a returned item is debited to a business account, your institution sends it to Re$ubmitlt where it is presented electronically up to two additional times. As a result of multiple submissions and strategic timing, your account holders will collect more from returned items with less work.With Re$ubmitlt, you can concentrate on profit-making opportunities rather than collections. Would you like to know more? Please join us for a live, online demonstration of BSG Financial’s Re$ubmitlt program Thursday, May 15 at 9:30 a.m. CT or Tuesday, May 20 at 1:30 p.m. CT. There is no cost, no travel and an unlimited number of employees may participate. For more information, please contact the FIPCO Customer Service Department at (800) 722-3498 or fipcosales@fipco.com.

A Message to Our Deposit Software Users:
FIPCO’s annual Deposit Software User Conference is just around the corner, scheduled for May 13 & 14 at the Holiday Inn & Convention Center in Stevens Point, Wisconsin . Because some of FIPCO’s Deposit Software Support staff members will be attending this conference, our response to your deposit product support calls may be slightly delayed at that time, and it may be difficult to reach a particular member of the Deposit Software Support staff. We ask that you please share this information with all FIPCO deposit software users at your financial institution, and we thank you for your patience during this time. Questions may be directed to the Software Support Department at (800) 722-3498 or fipcosupport@fipco.com.
