Roswell, GA (PRWEB) November 17, 2009

Approved Cash Advance, a leading provider of short term lending solutions, has just completed the implementation of a risk management solution offered by industry leader Chexar Networks, Inc. (“Chexar”) in Atlanta, Georgia. The move is part of a trend among the nation’s top consumer lenders, retailers and banks to offer the transaction based financial services that more than 100 million under-banked consumers across the country depend upon daily.

Chexar’s one of a kind solution was developed in 2001 and enables a financial services provider to fully serve the under-banked consumer by cashing any type of US denominated check of any size. Chexar’s solution combines Software as a Service (“SaaS”) with Business Process Outsourcing (“BPO”) to enable virtually any retail center to offer complicated check cashing services at the point of sale with ease. Clients interact with the system via the web and have access to over 100 risk specialists 7 days a week whose number one goal is to safely say “yes” to the consumers in the client locations wanting to cash checks.

Chexar’s Founder and CEO, Drew Edwards said “our clients avoid expensive and distracting internal investments in expertise, technology and people and gain an additional revenue source within weeks of contracting with us. The capability we afford them takes a traditional check cashing operator years to acquire and our clients are successfully competing day one.”

Joshua Davis, VP of Operations for Approve Cash Advance commented “we looked at solutions offered by several providers in the marketplace before choosing Chexar. At the end of this process, we concluded that Chexar’s solution was truly the best fit for us and that their clients were very happy with the experience and with the results. At the end of the day, we needed a partner that could successfully walk us into a brand new segment of business and Chexar has done that.”

Edwards went on to say, “I believe we are enabling a paradigm shift in the marketplace where check cashing services are becoming ubiquitous and the competition is driving down prices for the consumer. At the same time, the longer a client is on the Chexar platform, the lower the cost becomes and in the end, the consumer will benefit.”
