Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. FIS recently teamed up with Commerce Bank, a Midwest regional bank with more than $30 billion in assets, to deliver a comprehensive end-to-end loyalty program management platform to the latter. FIS has been entrusted to manage Commerce Bank’s loyalty program and offer an innovative rewards system for the bank’s cardholders.
This will be made possible through the utilization of FIS’ loyalty engagement solutions and underlying APIs. Therefore, Commerce Bank’s loyalty program will gain advantages in customer marketing with enhanced insights, quicker product launches and streamlined back-end processes, including fulfillment, reporting, customer service and related tasks.

The Premium Payback service of FIS delivers a smooth, real-time experience without requiring behind-the-scenes settlements with cardholders before applying rewards.
