Source Technologies Introduces Next-Generation of PilotPoint™ Self-Service Bill Payment Kiosk

Greater performance, more robust security and marketing capabilities

CHARLOTTE, N.C., January 7, 2010 – Source Technologies, a leading provider of innovative transactional and interactive kiosks, announced the availability of its PilotPoint™ 5-Series Plus kiosk. This new model, the latest in the evolution of the award-winning and proven successful PilotPoint kiosk family, offers more robust performance and advanced security options along with marketing and digital signage capabilities. The kiosk will be featured at the National Retail Federation’s 99th Annual Convention and Expo in New York, January 11 and 12, Booth # 545.



“The 5-Series Plus combines all of the benefits of the current bill payment kiosk product with the ability to process transactions more quickly and incorporate digital signage and marketing efforts onto the kiosk,” shares Sarah Burkhart, Director of Product Marketing. “This performance augmentation assimilates the PilotPoint 5-Series Plus bill payment kiosk into both the financial and the marketing systems of retailers, utility providers, and cellular phone operators. Digital signage and marketing communications messages displayed in conjunction with existing bill payment applications provide a greater return on investment for deployers.”



The PilotPoint 5-Series Plus kiosk offers the following performance features:

• Robust Computing Capabilities nimbly and securely process transactions and customer interactions while allowing the kiosk to be used for marketing and branding efforts including digital signage.


• Cash Access Door allows easy clearing of cash acceptor mechanism while limiting access to the cash box.


• Redesigned Check Scanner quickly and accurately reads MICR check data on the first attempt.


• Audit Trail Lock (for cash door) provides secure protection and records all lock activity.


• 2000 Note Cash Acceptor holds twice the capacity of notes securely inside the unit.


• Cabinet Door Alarm Switch internally mounted switch that notifies facility security system when front cabinet door is opened.


• Kiosk Elevation Pedestal raises kiosk higher for locations that do not need to meet 2006 ADA height requirements.

For many years, the Source Technologies self-service bill payment solution, powered by the PilotPoint 5-Series, has enabled consumers to independently pay their bills, research their account status and forego waiting in line to complete these transactions. The new 5-Series Plus bill payment kiosk provides the same superior customer interaction with the added benefits of improved performance, tighter security and marketing functionality for the deploying organization. Source Technologies is changing the self-service experience…for good.
