4. Notes on Consolidated Model
Thick and Thin E-Bills
Typically summary (Thin) data is stored at EBP processor. For full detail (Thick) consumer
is redirected to biller. Some billers outsource both Thin and Thick to EBP processor.
Top 400 Billers (by volume) typically reached with electronic payments and
remittance (80% of volume)
On Us– payees that are the FI themselves (e.g., credit card) may be stripped off
Smaller Billers – and payments by riskier / new consumers – typically are mailed a paper
check payment
Depending upon processor some electronic volume may go through intermediaries such as
RPPS for remittance
Variations on the Consolidated Model
FI provides bill payment application that uses “web services” from the EBP processor
FI provides bill payment application and payment warehouse – uses single EBP processor
for batch remittance
Banks attempt least cost routing - try to maximize economies of On Us/We, and routing
remittance through RPPS and others rather than 100% of volume to single processor

6. Notes on Online Biller Direct Model
• Variations of the Biller Direct Model
• Biller’s may use various models to host their Online Biller Direct site
• Host it themselves – purchasing software from a vendor and using their bank for ACH debits
• Outsource hosting to vendor – typically driven by per transaction fees (less $.05 depending on volume)
• Emergency / On-Demand
• Most prevalently an IVR (phone) oriented model (also available through call center and online)
• Immediate posting of payments (depending on payment type and risk model, may be memo post)
• Usually credit or debit card along with a convenience fee to cover payment (interchange) costs plus a
“penalty” (fee may be all to Biller or split with a service provider; can be $3 to over $15)
• Walk-in / Agent Pay
• Offered in Authorized (Biller contracts with agents to accept payments) – can include Emergency
• Also offered in Non-authorized / Convenience – agents accept payments for any biller their payment
processor can reach (Convenience typically has consumer fee of $1 to $3; includes cost of processing)
• Authorized often free to consumer – Biller pays agent a fee ($.50; includes cost of processing)
• Authorized may offer Immediate posting of payments (depending on payment type and risk model, may be
memo post)
• Usually cash, some checks and increasingly cards are used for payments
• Pre-paid telecom and cards
• Through authorized agents or biller store fronts
• Usually immediate posting to account or card (Convenience fee to consumer of $3 or more)
• Heavily cash, some checks and increasingly pre-paid and debit cards for telecom
