core tactic

TS2 is the hub. When we created this platform,it was the industry’s most technologically advanced processing system: robust, nimble, quick-to-market, highly customizable. It’s the only product of its kind in the market. In a supermarket of commerce processing options,TS2 is the shopping cart that carries each client’s selections. We can add or subtract from this incredible menu to suit the specialized needs of issuing banks, retailers, e-tailers or any other kind of company. This kind of unending variation is always current, innovative. TS2 will endure.
It’s the fill-in-the-blanks nature of TS2 that allows TSYS to collect and store more transaction data per account than any other company, then add value to that vast storehouse of information by returning it to clients in a meaningful, useful, profitable manner. TS2 remains the center of our seven tactics.

The next stage in our evolution is, in fact, not another system or platform at all. Rather, our team is providing solutions in the form of service, not systems; working as consultants instead of programmers. We’re blending our technology into our clients’ businesses, giving them solutions that predict and respond to consumer behaviors. In the end, it’s our clients who are creating the most efficient systems for their customers. Our company is transparent, invisible, when we do our jobs well.We are simply giving them knowledge and the tools to use the systems for themselves. We are showing more companies how to tap the potential of their own commerce knowledge by continuing to refine our packaging, presentation and pricing.
TS2 is the medium through which we are pushing all commerce spending to the electronic realm. Though almost all electronic purchases are made with a card, more than 60 percent of real-world spending is executed with a check.That’s changing in our favor, thanks to the whole package of advantages offered by TS2. The changes are clearly evident: in the 1999 holiday season, our core systems processed more than 360 transactions per second, more than one million transactions per hour at the peak.
By its very nature, this system will continue to grow to support the changing environments for commerce. TS2 will support whatever new financial instruments those new environments demand, beyond smart cards to digital certificates that can uniquely identify consumers in a faceless electronic environment. Our team will provide all of these services in a way that builds brand identity and customer loyalty for our clients while hastening the widespread acceptance of electronic buying and spending.
