Dispute Resolution and Payment Company Partner for Courts to Serve Citizens Completely Online

Court Innovations created, sells, and supports Matterhorn, a platform for courts to offer online access to their citizens. Point & Pay is a payment solution provider that allows courts, governments, and utilities to accept credit card payments online.

Matterhorn-enabled courts expand access for citizens who cannot miss work, school, or family care to attend court, or who fear coming to court because of their race, ethnicity, or immigration status. Matterhorn-courts give citizens the option to use a mobile phone or computer instead of coming to court in person. Courts use Matterhorn to resolve minor criminal and civil infractions or misdemeanors, such as parking and traffic tickets, restore a suspended drivers license, address family court compliance, prevent and resolve warrants, and resolve small claims disputes online.

While Matterhorn is flexible and can integrate with other payment systems, its integration with Point & Pay gives its customers more options. According to MJ Cartwright, CEO of Court Innovations, "we meet court staff who want to offer online access to their citizens but who do not yet have the ability to accept payment online. Point & Pay's proven and safe online payment system integrates with Matterhorn to provide an end-to-end solution."

According to Kevin Connell, President of Point & Pay, "Matterhorn provides citizens the ability to resolve their issue from the comfort of their home or workplace rather than having to come into court. Point & Pay allows them to finish the transaction they start with Matterhorn by paying online. It's a natural fit."

Court Innovations and Point & Pay both work with the 54A District Court in Lansing, Michigan. Court Administrator Anethia Brewer lauds the partnership,  "I am happy to have two partners of our court working together with us to bring additional access to the citizens in our community."

The integration of online dispute resolution and online payment is an end-to-end solution for courts to offer citizens. Courts with Matterhorn and Point & Pay allow citizens to resolve their issue and then complete any payment entirely online.
