The California Bankers Association Selects Vantiv for Endorsed Partner Program



Vantiv will be CBA's sole endorsed payments processing partner for credit and debit cards with more than 100 banks in the state

CINCINNATI, July 21, 2016 – Vantiv, Inc. (NYSE: VNTV), a leading provider of payment processing services and related technology solutions for merchants and financial institutions of all sizes, today announced that it has been chosen by the California Bankers Association (CBA), one of the largest state banking trade associations, as its sole endorsed EFT processing partner.

"We're pleased to have been selected by an organization as established and successful as the CBA," said Bill Hampton, senior vice president and general manager of financial institution services at Vantiv. "We look forward to providing the CBA's members with the tools and resources to help them achieve best in class results through innovative products and solutions, and we're excited to interact directly with the banks in this region to grow their portfolios."

The banks that make up the CBA can take advantage of a holistic suite of payment processing solutions from Vantiv including discounted credit, debit and ATM rates. Another exciting product that bank customers will have access to is Vantiv's MobiMoney, a mobile app that gives members control of card functionality, promoting lower fraud losses and safer spending habits. MobiMoney allows cardholders to turn cards on and off, and receive instant alerts on their mobile devices for all card activity. It also lets them restrict card usage based on personal preferences including geographic location, type of merchant, type of transaction and threshold amount.

"We selected Vantiv for our Endorsed Partner Program because of the scale and scope of its payment processing capabilities and proven track record of innovation," said Julianna Graham, senior vice president of strategic partners at the CBA. "We also received such positive feedback from referrals and users of the product in our due diligence review that it became an easy choice."
