"Sterling Bank was looking for new ways to interact with its customers outside the branch," said Anthony Jabbour, EVP, North American Financial Institutions, FIS. "These solutions will give Sterling's business and consumer customers the opportunity to bank when and where they want, safely and securely."

As added, FIS will help Sterling Bank to take full advantage of the growth in business and consumer use of digital solutions through the use of FIS' integrated digital solution suite, which encompasses online, tablet and mobile.

This deployment follows another recent Internet banking expansion for Sterling Bank whereby it converted its business customers to FIS' business internet banking platform. Sterling Bank also will introduce FIS' mobile platform to customers by the end of 2013, with high expectations for broad use in the near term and strong growth for the long term.

"As mobile devices become more advanced, people want quick access to their accounts without having to sit at a desktop," said Patricia Baughman, Sterling Bank's SVP and director of Corporate Product Management/Market Research. "It's about meeting our customers where they want to be met. We're pleased to deliver FIS' tested and reliable digital and mobile capabilities to our customers to better serve their needs."
