ATLANTA, September 29, 1999 - nFrontTM, Inc. (NASDAQ: NFNT, www.nfront.com), a leading Internet banking services provider for small- to mid-size financial institutions and winner of Microsoft Corporation's Best Internet Banking Solution Award, announced today it has received the Maine Bankers Association's exclusive endorsement for Internet banking.
The endorsement is supplemental to the ABA endorsement, awarded to nFront earlier this year, and issued by the Corporation for American Banking (CAB), an ABA subsidiary. Each individual state bankers association has the option to support the endorsements of the ABA. The Maine State Bankers Association reviewed the ABA award and supported the ABA's award decision.
"From Maine to California, our company remains committed to providing the industry's finest Internet banking technology and world-class service banks have come to expect from nFront," said Tripp Rackley, chairman and CEO of nFront. "We are honored that the Maine State Bankers Association has validated our efforts by exclusively endorsing nFront."
nFront received the ABA's exclusive endorsement after an extensive review of Internet banking solutions for banks. The review was performed by the ABA in conjunction with Gomez Advisors, a respected independent authority on the Internet delivery of consumer products and services. nFront was named "best in class" based on its in-depth analysis of the company's management strength, financial soundness, Internet banking solution functionality, marketing capabilities and customer service standards.
nFront's nHome™ and nBusiness™ Internet banking solutions offer reliability, scalability and ease of use for both end users and bank operations staff. In addition to fully transactional Internet banking and cash management functionality, nFront's leading-edge technology offers financial institutions a valuable sales and marketing tool by allowing the bank to capture and mine valuable customer data on a secure platform for customer-specific marketing. nHome and nBusiness are the only "fat-server" Internet banking solutions designed specifically for small- to mid-size financial institutions.
