During the quarter, BillingTree began testing a newly expanded suite of convenience fee solutions, supplying alternatives for billers seeking to offset their payment processing fees called "No Fee to Biller." A second model, allowing for more effective management of fee revenue and reporting is called "Biller Keeps the Fee." Both enhanced models are currently in beta with expected general availability by year's end.

In addition, two ARM Industry events offered presentations by BillingTree including the CDS CollectOne User Conference and Columbia Ultimate's Art of Success.
