- Partnership: Commerce Bank, a $30.6 billion-asset regional bank headquartered in Kansas City, has partnered with FIS to implement a new loyalty program management platform.
- FIS Solutions: The bank will use FIS’ loyalty engagement solutions and APIs, benefiting from enhanced customer marketing, faster product rollouts, and backend process support (e.g., reporting, fulfillment, and customer servicing).
- Key Feature: Commerce Bank will utilize FIS’ Premium Payback real-time loyalty program, allowing customers to redeem reward points instantly at point-of-sale (POS) for cash savings, encouraging increased cardholder engagement.
