Equifax said it will provide automated check authorization and guarantee services to both Cache, an upscale women's apparel chain with more than 150 locations, and Hit or Miss, a discount women's store with nearly 300 locations.

Also, 64 Bon-Ton Stores department stores in the Northeast will use Equifax's PathWays check management system.

In addition, Equifax will provide collection services for Bon-Ton as needed.
