We go beyond technology to offer a total solution that gives you incisive answers on every aspect of your card processing business. We ll talk to you about the sort of business you want to run, whether that s cards, loans or loyalty programmes. We ll look at the way you recruit customers and market to them.

If you want to move straight to implementing the system that makes it all happen, that s fine too. You can choose to have us host Base2000 for you, or simply take the software on license knowing there s support if you need it. Whether you operate in one country or several, our solutions are totally scalable. And if you want multi-entity, multi-country processing, we can support you with a single global implementation of Base2000. With centralised hosting and multi-lingual support from our centre in the UK, we can offer multi-national organisations real economies of scale. Flexible billing too FIS Card Solutions runs a flexible business model. We listen to your requirements, aspirations and current challenges and work closely with you to create the most appropriate commercial agreement for both of us. It s an approach that allows you to link your costs to the business model that best suits your organisation. Base2000 takes care of everything Base2000 has been one of the world s leading card processing systems for decades. Now operating in over 20 countries, Base2000 processes over 70 million card accounts worldwide. But we can t afford to rest on our laurels. At FIS, we re constantly refining Base2000 to meet future needs in the last five years we have invested in excess of $50 million in Base2000, and we will continue to invest in the future, to make sure it retains its leadership position. The principle behind Base2000 is to create software that leaves you free to get on with running your business. Customised workflows take care of managing tasks in account processing, merchant processing and collections. And the system interfaces seamlessly with external applications, in real time. Speed We know that speed is of critical value in card processing. That s why we have designed Base2000 to be quick to implement usually taking less than a year and sometimes as little as three months. Once you re up and running, you ll be able to launch new products in a matter of weeks and adapt existing products in days. Even better, you ll be able to make those changes without rewriting lines of code or spending a fortune on extra IT staff. 2
Simplicity Despite its undoubted sophistication, Base2000 is a triumph of simplicity. Simple, because the software is designed to be easy to use, whether you re creating new products or dealing with customer accounts. For product developers, the software is richly parameterised so there are no code changes to be made when launching or adapting products. For customer service staff, Base2000 has a user-friendly presentation layer that makes dealing with cardholders easy. The ServiceView user interface is simple to navigate, can be customised to your needs and can display messages in any local language. So you can give your customers and your staff an easy way to work. Designed to put customers first One of the real benefits of Base2000 is that the software is designed to let you view customers as individuals rather than as a series of different accounts. For example, a customer with three cards can simply be sent one statement instead of three. Or a loyalty programme can be run easily across a variety of cards, maximising your risk management and crosssale opportunities. The software translates user-defined business requirements into system processing rules, so there s no need to involve your IT department with endless system changes. Utility or licence? You can choose from a simple licensing arrangement that includes software maintenance with business and technical training, to a fully outsourced service. The great advantage of having FIS host Base2000 is that there are no limits to the volume of business you can take on. We operate the software and hardware, give you full development and application support, provide consultancy and can even run your front and back office.
