CXI Announces New Agreement with a Financial Institution Representing More Than 800 Branches
August 02 2016 - 7:59AM
Currency Exchange International, Corp. (TSX:CXI)
(OTCBB:CURN), is pleased to announce it has signed a Master
Services Agreement and a corresponding Statement of Work with a
national financial institution in North America. The foreign
currency services are expected to commence at select locations in
August 2016 and are expected to be in place at all transacting
locations by the end of 2016.
The financial institution will utilize CXI’s
inventory on consignment model at select locations and a
decentralized foreign banknote model across its customer network.
All branches will directly interact with CXI through the company’s
proprietary software – CEIFX. The select locations holding foreign
currency inventory generally have Euros, U.K. Pounds, Japanese Yen,
Mexican Pesos and some Caribbean currencies in stock daily. Holding
the foreign currency at the branch makes it available for immediate
purchase by account holders and non-account holders, affording
customers the convenience of same-day currency exchange at the
location. All other foreign currencies sold to customers, of the
more than 80 offered, can be exchanged at these locations with a
one to two business day turnaround time.
The first set of locations serviced by CXI in
August 2016 will be through the consignment model, immediately
expanding the currency service offering. The entire branch network,
using the decentralized model, is expected to begin transacting
with CXI in October 2016. Randolph Pinna, President and CEO
of CXI said, “The entire CXI team is very proud to have CXI’s
services and reputation recognized by the institution as it was
determined our software, service and level of dedicated customer
care will expand the value of their foreign banknote service down
to their clients. We look forward to working with this excellent
financial institution.”
