JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 31, 2011 – NYCE® Payments Network, LLC, a leading U.S. electronic payments network and an FIS™ company, today announced that First Command Bank has selected NYCE as its preferred network for domestic ATM and PIN point-of-sale (POS) access.

First Command Bank provides traditional personal and commercial banking services to military personnel and other consumers as a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Command Financial Services, Inc., which has been providing financial products and services to American families since 1958. Founded in 1997, the Fort Worth-based bank boasts assets of more than $622 million. In addition to this new payments network agreement, First Command Bank currently uses FIS’ item processing and credit card processing solutions. First Command is also a member of the Armed Forces Financial Network (AFFN) – an ATM and POS network which for over 26 years has provided the U.S. military community with access to their funds through terminals located on or near U.S. military bases worldwide.

For more than 25 years NYCE has been a leader in electronic payments, helping its clients leverage the benefits of real-time payments for consumers through over 360,000 ATM locations and 2 million retail locations nationwide. Convenient, secure and efficient, NYCE offers mobile text message banking as a standard feature of ATM and POS participation, allowing customers to receive balance inquiries and mini-statements through text messaging. In addition, NYCE recently announced it was joining forces with CashEdge and utilizing the network to bring real-time person-to-person (P2P) payments to consumers through the Popmoney® service.

“The NYCE solution provides superior service for our clients and enhanced value for the bank,” said Kelly Hill, vice president, First Command Bank. “Not only does NYCE’s nationwide availability allow us to effectively serve our customers regardless of where they are, but the economic benefits of utilizing NYCE exceeds what we have achieved with our previous vendor.”
