Tapping into Transaction Data for Cost Effective Debit Rewards Systems
March 30, 2010 - 2:00 p.m., U.S. Eastern time
Hosted by BAI

In the wake of the economic crisis, consumers have begun to move away from the "buy now, pay later" mentality and towards increased savings and fiscal responsibility. Add in tightened credit availability with increasing rates and you have vast numbers of clients that are putting down their credit cards and making everyday purchases with debit cards. However, given that interchange fees account for thin profit margins, financial institutions tend to view debit programs as cost centers. Join IDC Financial Insights practice director, Aaron McPherson, as he participates in this webinar that will discuss the tactics and strategies of utilizing transaction data to enable institutions of all sizes to turn their credit and debit programs into profit centers.
