BillMatrix Executive Speaks on the Future of Debit

The Payment Experts Continue Educational Mission

DALLAS, Texas – October 4, 2004 – BillMatrix Corporation, a provider of outsourced telephone and Internet-based payment services, will participate tomorrow in a panel discussion at the ATM & Debit Forum at the Baltimore Marriot Waterfront in Baltimore, Maryland. John Witt, the Chief Operating Officer of the company, will be one of the experts offering ideas on enhancing the utility of debit and a perspective on the industry during a featured session entitled, “The Future of Debit: Emerging Payments Panel Discussion.” The panel will review the rapidly expanding use of debit cards, as well as their current and future role in the payments business.

BillMatrix has been a proponent of the use of debit cards since the company’s inception, pioneering their use in 1995 for on-demand bill payment in the utility industry. In cooperation with the major electronic funds transfer networks, the company has continued innovating with the expansion of PIN-less, online debit use for insurance and telecommunications bills and most recently, for mortgage payments. Mr. Witt has been with the company since 2000 and is responsible for all day-to-day functions including the payment system operation, technology development, customer service and sales & marketing. He has a broad, long-term background in financial and operational issues and will offer an insightful point-of-view to the session’s attendees.

Thomson Media has organized the ATM & Debit Forum to be an educational opportunity for individuals looking to develop and execute a payments strategy to hear from industry innovators on the radical transformation and convergence of the ATM and debit markets.
