Teller Platform

- Twenty-Five Banks Contract for Client/Server Teller Sales, Service, and

MONETT, Mo., June 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.
(Nasdaq: JKHY), a leading provider of integrated technology solutions and data
processing services for financial institutions, today announced the general
availability of Core Director Teller, the client/server teller sales, service,
and transaction processing solution developed internally by its Jack Henry

currently supporting more than 230 banks ranging from de novo to multi-billion
dollar institutions.      

Core Director Teller, which leverages Microsoft's Smart Client(R) technology,
supports every aspect of teller operations, including customizable transaction
setup and processing, intuitive balancing and research functions, customizable
receipts, automatic off-line store/forward, electronic journal capabilities,
and aggregate currency transaction reporting (CTR) and monetary instrument
logging (MIL).  This system provides real-time displays of customer
information, account balances, alerts and central information file (CIF)
messages, memo posts, application inquiries, check images, signature cards,
customer identification, and the ability to share information among branches. 


Prior to general availability, 25 banks have contracted to implement Core
Director Teller including Missouri-based Lamar Bank and Trust.  According to
this bank's senior vice president and cashier, Becky Blackford, "The teller
experience is one of the most important components of our overall customer
experience.  So empowering our tellers with the business tools they need to be
as efficient and effective as possible is very important to us.  We are
confident that Core Director Teller provides the advanced automation and
sophisticated business tools that our tellers, customer service
representatives, and managers need to improve the speed and accuracy of
transaction processing, improve operating efficiencies, enhance customer
service, and reduce fraud." 

Tony Wormington, president of Jack Henry & Associates, said, "In today's
extremely competitive business environment, banks must have the retail
solutions that enable them to successfully and aggressively compete, to
differentiate their service levels, and to meet and hopefully exceed
customers' evolving expectations.  Jack Henry Banking's suite of retail
delivery solutions has been assembled to help banks proactively respond to
these business opportunities and challenges.  Based on its ability to
materially enhance the retail experience and expand customer relationships, we
expect that Core Director Teller will become a strategic product for the
diverse banks automated by our Core Director platform."

alliances with successful companies, Jack Henry Banking regularly introduces
new complementary products and services that further enhance its three
