Chantilly, Va. — Online Resources Corporation (ORCC), a leading provider of online financial services, today announced its eCommerce Services unit has introduced a robust disbursement solution that leverages the Company’s existing payments infrastructure. DIRECTV is one of five major billers that implemented the service in the first quarter.

The disbursement solution satisfies a range of applications across a variety of industries including mortgages, credit cards, insurance, utilities, health care and others. Typical uses include refunds, rewards payments, credit card balance transfers, settlements, escrow payments, insurance claims, royalty payments and flexible spending account reimbursements.

For billers looking to consolidate their costly, disparate processes, Online Resources efficiently manages business-to-consumer and business-to-business payments through the entire disbursement lifecycle. The Company manages end-to-end payment origination, clearing and settlement, reconciliation, exception processing and escheatment. Compared to in-house processing, clients typically reduce their processing costs by 30 percent or more, due in part to Online Resources’ network of over 6,000 electronic biller endpoints that provides faster, more efficient and accurate payment posting.

"For 20 years, Online Resources has had the infrastructure in place to facilitate online payments to the full spectrum of billers as well as consumers," said Robert R. Craig, Online Resources’ executive vice president and general manager of eCommerce Services. "This fully automated electronic payables service for both banks and billers is a natural extension of our full suite of EBPP and electronic receivables services."

DIRECTV is one of five clients now live with the disbursement solution, including a major credit card issuer, a mortgage payment provider and a telecommunications firm.

Disbursement is part of Online Resources eCom Advantage Suite, the most comprehensive set of electronic billing solutions for presentment, payment and receivables to billers in many industries including healthcare, consumer finance, telecommunications and utilities.
