Strategy

While parts of the automated payments services industry are in decline, the company is trying to expand its wholesale lockbox business, and it is targeting banks that have eliminated some, but not all, paper transaction processing from the back offices of their retail businesses, for instance. Wausau Financial Systems has identified paperless loans, new accounts, as well as safety deposit and treasury management as areas of growth for its automated offerings for financial institutions.

Company Background

The company was founded in 1974. It launched its first check processing system in 1982.
