ATLANTA, July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- InComm, a leading prepaid product and payments technology company, today announced that the company's president, Phil Graves, will retire in December 2018. Since joining InComm in 1997, Graves has helped lead countless new business endeavors focused on building and maintaining relationships with InComm's key customers and partners. His ability to identify and successfully manage next-generation programs has been pivotal in the establishment of InComm's industry-leading suite of products and services, and his passion for the business and our people has been inspirational in making InComm the vibrant, customer-centric business it is today.

"Phil was my very first key hire at InComm and he has been instrumental to its growth and success over the last 20 years," said Brooks Smith, Chairman and CEO. "We are extremely grateful for all of his contributions to InComm and wish him the very best in his retirement."

With American Express for over twenty years, Happ held several positions overseeing brand-moving initiatives for its prepaid business.
