Mitek was cited for its patented mobile remote deposit capture (RDC) application -- Mobile Deposit® -- which allows users of camera-equipped smartphones to deposit checks into their financial institutions or cash-management accounts anywhere or anytime simply by taking photos of their checks.
Mitek and USAA Federal Savings Bank were selected as inaugural winners of the MobileLink Award during this year's BAI Retail Delivery Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, the largest annual gathering of the banking industry.

Our technology is putting convenience back into checks and engaging the mobile banker, the most profitable market segment for banks," said Mitek CEO James DeBello. "The BAI award noting our innovation leadership with Mobile Deposit amplifies the success we've had in attracting all the leading technology integrators, applications services providers and key partners in financial services."
Mobile Deposit is a highly secure, accurate and easy-to-use application that allows users to initiate mobile-deposit sessions, key in deposit amounts and simply snap photos of both sides of the checks with their smartphone cameras. The Mitek software captures the check images and prepares them for transmission to the financial institution's receiving RDC solution.
Mitek introduced its newest mobile application, Mobile Photo Bill Pay™ during the BAI Retail Delivery conference. The new app exploits Mitek's core competency in image analysis, data extraction and processing to give users a new measure of convenience and security in paying their bills electronically via their smartphone cameras.
"Our goal is to help banks, credit unions and other financial institutions serve the booming smartphone market with the best way to securely deposit a check, pay a bill and take advantage of future innovative conveniences using our mobile imaging platform," DeBello said.
