nFinanSe's "Lucky 777" Program Helps Hard-Working Americans Avoid Costly Check Cashing Fees

TAMPA, Fla., May 28, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- NFSE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- nFinanSe Inc. (OTCBB:NFSE) is once again helping struggling Americans by offering the "Lucky 777" program that allows its reloadable prepaid cardholders to set up free direct deposit with their employers. Employers will process cardholder direct deposits just like they process any other direct deposit. This cutting-edge program aims to rescue people from unnecessarily losing any of their hard-earned money to high-priced check cashing outlets that charge fees ranging from two to five percent of the check value.

"We've transformed our already low-cost card into a bank for the 73 million unbanked and underbanked," says Jerry R. Welch, Chairman and CEO of nFinanSe, "One that keeps their money secure and doesn't force them to sacrifice up to five percent of their paychecks. Think about it - for an hourly worker earning $500 every two weeks, that's up to $25 of their paycheck, $50 each month that they would have to give up just to access their own money."

"Lucky 777" is the latest way nFinanSe is helping the millions of Americans who either don't have bank accounts or who are maxed out on their credit cards. Inspiring its name, cardholders who sign up for the direct deposit program automatically get $7.77 deposited onto their reloadable prepaid cards at the time of their first direct deposit from an employer.

"If you flip through a phone book in any city in this country, you'll find more check-cashing locations than major fast food restaurants," Mr. Welch points out. "Now, with our Reloadable Prepaid Card, all of these check cashing fees are a bad deal for consumers who are already hurting in these tough economic times. Our FREE direct deposit program helps alleviate this."

Last year, nFinanSe launched the industry's lowest cost, reloadable prepaid card in wide-spread, general distribution, the nFinanSe Discover(R) Network Reloadable Prepaid Card. The card is currently available at Dollar General locations nationwide, Winn-Dixie grocery stores and MAPCO Express Convenience Stores across the Southeast United States. It can be purchased for $5.95, carries a monthly maintenance fee of only $2.95, can be reloaded for $2.95 and offers FREE customer service and FREE text messaging of recent transactions and available card balance. That's almost half of what competitors charge customers (as much as $9.95 - $14.95 for the purchase of a reloadable prepaid card, $4.95 in monthly maintenance fees, $4.95 to reload cards and as much as $2 for a customer service calls). Registered cardholders can easily sign up for the "Lucky 777" at www.nfinanse.com by entering the "Cardholder Login" with their nFinanSe Reloadable Prepaid Card.
