BROOKFIELD, Wis. – Fiserv said yesterday its CheckFree unit has signed with PayScan to offer the company’s patented bar code bill payment process to billers as part of its CheckFreePay Link platform.
The deal will allow CheckFreePay to offer an enhanced retail payment system that will allow walk-in customers to pay their household bills quickly and easily at retail checkout lanes and self-service kiosks.
This retail payment solution will use a "smart bar code" on the bill to record processing rules, including relevant payment data from a customer bill such as the account number. By scanning the bill at an existing retail point-of-sale terminal, a cashier or consumer can easily submit a payment without manual data entry.
