Bottomline Introduces Powerful Client Integration Tools for Transaction Banking

Transform® Connect for Banks Simplifies and Improves The Client Experience

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. – September 20, 2011 – Bottomline Technologies (NASDAQ: EPAY) today announced Transform® Connect as a new product within the transaction banking solution family that enables banks to reduce client implementation time and improve the client experience. Already used by hundreds of organizations, the tool expedites critical data mapping processes that are required to connect clients’ back-office systems to their banks.

By providing tools for non-technical users, banks can quickly get corporate clients up and running on new products and services. Reducing technical complexities helps banks expedite client service, improve the on-boarding experience and accelerate revenue opportunities. Transform Connect eliminates client disruption when sunsetting legacy solutions, performing upgrades or introducing new products and enables banks to create visibility across channels for both bank and corporate users.

“We believe that Transform Connect will be an invaluable tool for our transaction banking customers,” said Eric Campbell, CTO, Bottomline Technologies. “By simplifying communication between the bank’s back office and their customers’ ERP systems, clients are up and running faster, simplifying a traditionally labor-intensive process.”
