BillMatrix Takes Active Role at NACHA Payments 2004
The Payment Experts™ Presenting Major Client Case Study Covering 20 Years of Success

DALLAS, Texas and SEATTLE, Washington – March 19, 2004 – BillMatrix Corporation, a provider of outsourced telephone and Internet-based payment services, announced today their strategic activity at PAYMENTS 2004, NACHA's annual conference on electronic payments and e-business. This premier payments industry conference is being held in Seattle, Washington this year from March 21-24 at the Washington State Convention and Trade Center.

Jerry Portocalis, BillMatrix’ senior vice president of sales and marketing, will be showcasing a major utility client’s successful experience with electronic payments in a joint presentation on March 23rd at 1:30 PM. The super-regional, Fortune 500 energy company is a leader in customer satisfaction, winning national awards for four consecutive years in part due to offering increasingly appealing, automated, electronic payment options to their broad customer base. The session will describe implementation and growth of the program over a 20-year period as well as the metrics used to spur adoption and measure long-term success.

BillMatrix is also participating in two other presentations at the event, moderating sessions with industry experts from Gartner, Inc. and TowerGroup. These sessions support the conference’s purpose – providing the know-how for organizations to manage the nation's movement to electronic payments. The TowerGroup session will focus on lessons learned by a broad range of billers on the business case for an e-payments program, adoption rates, and best practices. The Gartner session will feature the analyst’s take on how identity theft and fraud are impacting businesses using e-payments and the critical success factors for effective solutions to combat the problem.

Activity at this event demonstrates BillMatrix’ focus on supporting industry education at conferences and events based on the company’s decade of experience. At NACHA’s Council for Electronic Billing and Payments in Annapolis, Maryland earlier this month, BillMatrix was invited to lead a discussion with attendees on consumer and business drivers for utilizing electronic payments as well as business readiness for such programs. The company is a member of the council and is also active in NACHA’s Internet Council.
