Virginia detention center to deploy payment kiosks

September 9, 2013

General Payment Systems Inc. announced that it has entered into an agreement to provide its kiosk technology to the Lynchburg, Va., detention center beginning in early October.

As a result of the successful launch of the EZ Exit debit card a few months ago, the Lynchburg Adult Detention Center requested the installation of the company's kiosk services, the news release said. The deployment will allow General Payment Systems to participate in additional revenue-generating transactions at the facility through the installation of a lobby kiosk for money load payments, a booking room kiosk for the collection of all cash and coin that enters the facility and other components of the General Payment Systems technology portfolio.

"We are very pleased to expand our efforts at the Lynchburg Detention Center," said Ron Hodge, CEO of General Payment Systems. "It is very satisfying to have a facility ask us for more support after an initial and successful introduction of our technology. We look forward to assisting Lynchburg with all of their payments needs."
