IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- General Payment Systems, Inc. (OTC:CPSZD) (the "Company") - a payment processing technology company that specializes in the $500 billion government payment space, is pleased to announce that the Company has now developed and is ready to deploy a software and hardware system upgrade that will for the first time allow for its government agency clients to automate the collection of payments by check and to dispense change on cash transactions through the kiosks on location. The new technology has been integrated with the services of a top five bank and provides the flexibility to work with all bank partners as required by our clients.
The platform has been in live beta for the past six weeks and is now proven and ready to be deployed at other facilities.
"This is a truly transformative system upgrade for General Payment Systems," stated Ronald Hodge, CEO, General Payment Systems, Inc. "Acceptance of checks will be a tremendous technology asset for our governmental partners as they increase ways in which they can accept fee generating payments."
"This upgrade is also a testament to our integration abilities and our ability to develop custom solutions to solve real problems for government entities," added Hodge. "We are establishing General Payment Systems as a diverse provider of efficiency and accountability. And it goes without saying that if a GPSI kiosk is handling these cash events, these agencies can now have their highly specialized staff focus on other more meaningful duties at the facility."
