STRATEGIC PARTNERS
March 21, 2002
BROWN DEER, Wis. -- TYME, an EFT network, is taking its efforts to penetrate the Minnesota market further by hiring a relationship manager to develop the market.
Peter Leschisin, formerly an executive with Norwest Card Services in the Twin Cities, was hired to help TYME establish a presence in Minnesota in light of the mergers between First Bank-US Bank and Norwest-Wells Fargo.
Leschisin worked almost 10 years for Norwest Bank as annuity administrator, senior implementation specialist, and assistant vice president in card services. He holds a degree in economics from the University of Minnesota.
Just after TYME announced in March of this year that it was entering Minnesota, Milwaukee-based Firstar Corp. switched all of its ATMs in Minneapolis-St. Paul to TYME from Instant Cash.
In addition, TYME has signed First State Bank of LeCenter to a contract and has 2-3 other Minnesota banks interested as well, according to reports.
