March 20, 2006

Houston Chronicle: BillMatrix Corp., a provider of outsourced telephone and Internet-based payment services and a subsidiary of Fiserv Inc., briefed the California Public Utilities Commission on the use of credit cards, ATM debit cards, electronic checks and recurring transactions for bill payment. BillMatrix was asked to participate in an informational workshop on the implementation of the California Assembly's legislation allowing California consumers to pay their utility bills with credit or debit cards. Three other state utility regulatory bodies have asked BillMatrix to provide similar information, including the Rhode Island and the New Hampshire Public Utilities Commissions and the Kansas Corporation Commission.
