DMS Integrates With 3 Image Cos.

Database Management Services, Inc., said its HomeCU Internet home banking service now integrates with three new check image vendors: Volunteer Corporate CU, Palmetto Cooperative Services, and the Federal Reserve's FedImage.

"This means the HomeCU can now accept check images from a total of 21 different image vendors or approximately 95% of the vendors in the U.S.," the company said. "In the past year, we've seen a dramatic increase in the number of credit unions who want to offer their members online access to check images," notes Jan Brinkerhoff, Vice President of DMS. "A lot of those credit unions are drawn to HomeCU because we offer unlimited access to images for a low monthly fee."

One reason for the sudden surge in interest is the growth in the use of online banking. Analysts at Jupiter Research estimate that the number of households banking online will double between 2003 and 2008.
