SAN DIEGO, CA – July 15, 2014 ─Mitek (NASDAQ: MITK, www.miteksystems.com), the leading innovator of mobile imaging for financial transactions, announced that ten leading financial institutions have now deployed its new mobile capture technology, Mitek MiSnap with Mobile Deposit.

Mitek MiSnap eliminates user error by providing real-time feedback until a suitable image is detected, at which point it automatically captures the image.  This technology is now the mobile capture component of Mitek's award winning Mobile Deposit.

The use of mobile check deposit is growing rapidly. The recent Federal Reserve survey showed that 38 percent of mobile bankers have used their phone to deposit a check in the past 12 months, up from 21 percent in 2012.  The improvement in the user experience as a result of Mitek MiSnap will accelerate the popularity of this low cost, self service deposit channel.

“Since offering Mobile Deposit Capture six months ago, adoption and usage has been great.  We’ve processed about a quarter of a million deposits using the mobile deposit technology so far this year.  We’re also seeing about 6,500 new users per month.  We believe Mitek MiSnap has played a key role in this product’s success.  We’ve had feedback from some customers that this is the best image capture technology they’ve ever used,” said Jeff Kaufman, President of Retail Services at FirstBank

Mitek MiSnap is available through Mitek partners including: Cachet, Ensenta, FIS, Fiserv, Fundtech, Jack Henry, NCR, Transcentra and others.
