Press Release
UVIX Corporation Enters Into Agreement With BioPay
BOCA RATON, FL - Jan. 30, 2003 - UVIX Corporation
(www.uvix.com), a leader in biometric and security
solutions, and Herndon, Va.-based BioPay, LLC today
announced an agreement under which UVIX Corporation will
offer the BioPay line of products and services to eliminate
fraud, increase revenue, and improve customer convenience.
"Check fraud remains a large problem for many merchants.
BioPay offers an affordable solution that we can now offer
to merchants," said UVIX President and CEO Steven J. Ziman.
"Because biometric technology provides the best defense to
combat various types of fraud, we are pleased to add
BioPay's range of products to our arsenal of
fraud-prevention weapons and tools. As a value added
reseller (VAR) of BioPay products and services, we will
benefit from additional revenues while providing merchants
with market-leading biometric payment technology."
UVIX Corporation will offer merchants BioPay's
market-leading check cashing system. The system
electronically captures a customer's fingerprint, stores a
template of the fingerprint image, and then records
check-cashing transactions associated with that person. A
customer's negative check-cashing information is stored in a
central database and shared between all merchants using the
BioPay system. Advanced alert mechanisms warn the clerk of a
potential bad check before the transaction is completed,
enabling the transaction to be declined before it is
processed, saving the store money it may have otherwise
lost.
