Looking for a branch capture solution for your institution?
FSI Item Processing is please to announce our branch capture solution. Branch capture can offer a full range of image services to locations that wish to capture items closer to the point of origination or that were previously out of range of FSI's item processing centers.
What are the branch capture minimum requirements?
- A personal computer running branch capture software
- A table-top image capture device
The suggested 30-document per minute device has a MICR reader, front and back imaging and inkjet endorsement. A single machine can process up to 5,000 documents per day. FSI manages the centrally located database server that is connected to the capture sites by communication lines. The server stores sort patterns along with the MICR data and images.
Can you customize the options to fit your needs?
FSI offers flexibility to decide which steps of the image capture process you would like to do at the branch, and which steps you would like FSI to perform. You decide whether to pre-encode and balance the work at the branch or have us do it for you.
Do I need branch capture?
Branch capture may or may not be the ideal solution for your financial institution. Here are some questions to help determine what solution is most suitable for you.
- Are you in a remote location with high courier costs?
- Do you often miss posting or transit deadlines due to your location or other factors?
- Do you have branch locations that are currently over 100 miles from an FSI location and you wish for us to process your items?
- Do you want to position your bank for image exchange opportunities?
- Do you want a low cost image capture solution to replace aging equipment?
- Have you eliminated check return statements in preparation for truncating your on-us items?
If you answered “yes” to some or all of the questions, you may be a candidate for branch capture. Contact FSI for a detailed analysis of your operation to determine if you are suited for branch capture.
