CUNA Tech Council presents award at BAI

NEW ORLEANS (11/21/03)--US Biometrics received the Best of Show Award from the CUNA Technology Council during the 2003 Bank Administration Institute (BAI) Retail Delivery Conference and Expo in New Orleans.

According to Dan Kinne, a member of the CUNA Technology Council executive committee and vice president of information technology for Silver State Schools CU in Las Vegas, the company caught the council's attention with its CheckQ system.

The Naperville, Ill., company provides biometric technology software that helps credit unions prevent fraud, rather than react to it.

CheckQ is a fingerprint recognition system that reads current or potential members' fingerprints and compares them to a national shared database. This database contains information about check and other transactions that are commonly fraudulent.

Credit unions also can use US Biometrics' offering to control access internally.

The award recognizes a company at the BAI's Retail Delivery Conference that has shown extraordinary commitment to credit union technology, with appeal to a wide range of credit unions as well as affordability.

Other Best of Show finalists included Accucast, QBT, Wincor Nixdorf, Experion, Aurum Technologies, Prognosis, SERsynergy, Ember Heatshield and Raddon Financial Group.
