San Francisco, CA and Breaux Bridge, LA— February 6, 2007 — Pay By Touch, the leading provider of biometric authentication, personalized marketing and payment solutions, and Hebert's Supermarkets today announced that Paycheck SecureŽ, a biometric check cashing service, is available at all three Hebert's locations.
Paycheck Secure, powered by Pay By Touch, uses a simple finger scan to authenticate customers' identities to cash payroll or government checks. Paycheck Secure first was implemented in the Hebert's of Henderson store in March 2006, and now the retailer has expanded the service to Hebert's Supermarket and Hebert's Superette, both located in downtown Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.
"This is the best check cashing system we have had," said Ken Mouton, general manager of Hebert's Supermarkets. "It made sense to expand the service not only to provide more convenience for our customers, but also to help prevent check fraud across all of our stores."
Signing up to cash checks using Paycheck Secure is quick and easy. Customers simply provide a photo ID, two finger scans, and have a digital photo taken right in the store. Once enrolled, customers can quickly and securely cash payroll checks with a quick finger scan at any Hebert's store.
"Paycheck Secure offers a unique way for Hebert's customers to cash their checks rapidly and securely," said John Rogers, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Pay By Touch. "The service also helps merchants like Hebert's dramatically reduce fraud by leveraging biometric technology to verify customers' identities."
