CIT Group Inc. and FRONTSTEPS announced an expanded partnership to simplify payments for homeowners in community associations. FRONTSTEPS Pay, a market-leading online payment service, is now available to all CIT Community Association Banking clients. Additionally, CIT will waive ACH costs so homeowners can pay online for free.
“We’re pleased to enhance our long-standing collaboration with FRONTSTEPS. Both companies understand that clients need easier processes and that banking is core to running their business,” said Alan DeTata, president of Community Association Banking for CIT. “With our innovative integrations, we’re committed to delivering customized, efficient services that ensure a more streamlined banking experience.”
CIT’s C-Vendor Pay solution is also now integrated and supported for all CIT and FRONTSTEPS Accounting (Caliber) clients. C-VendorPay increases efficiencies in the payment process by eliminating the manual work involved in processing invoices. With C-Vendor Pay, clients can automate all invoice payments with a single file upload, set up workflows and approvals to mirror their existing processes, and receive email approvals for a more consistent streamlined process. The system also remembers previously coded invoices, removing the need to re-enter information for each invoice payment. The process is configured to the client’s business and offers multiple payment options such as ACH, check and virtual card.
