Data processing systems were designed to process data. You put data in, and get data out. Unfortunately – programmers aren’t typically concerned with design or marketing. So, yes, your data processing system may generate a statement, but that doesn’t mean the programmers spent much time making the statement design attractive or easy to read.
That’s where LKCS comes in.
LKCS can improve your paper statements and e-statements. Simply send us your statement file from any data processing system and we can add our magic. Here are some of the custom statement design options that are available to you:
Are different account types clearly differentiated from each other on your current statements? They can be. LKCS can add account headings to each account within the statement. Different fonts, boxes, shading, and other techniques can all be incorporated to make your statement's design easier to read and understand.
Font changes make your statements easier on the eyes. Your statements don't have to look like computer code, let LKCS change the font. We can even apply bold and italic styles to call attention to certain areas of the statement design.
Forget the awkward abbreviations and code numbers. "ID 15 CHKG" becomes Primary Checking Account on the statement. "SUFFIX: 04 HOME EQUIL" becomes Home Equity Loan. Your account holder will appreciate your attention to detail.
Just because the data comes out of your core processing system in a certain order, doesn't mean it needs to stay that way. LKCS can rearrange the data, making your statement easier to understand and reconcile. For example, consider placing transaction amounts and running balances immediately next to the date, sliding the description to the right.
Pages of numbers are hard for many people to follow. Whether they are included in your data or not, LKCS can build summaries into your statements design. Add a check reconciliation section that only lists check numbers and amounts. Include a summary of beginning balances, ending balances, and interest for each account listed on the statement.
LKCS can design your documents in full color for print and/or web display. Easily draw the recipient’s eye to key details or areas of their statement. Reinforce your brand by incorporating your color scheme throughout your statements and notices.
Place targeted, relevant onserts and marketing messages directly on your statements and e-statements.
We embrace the drive to digital documents. Which is why our e-statement platform is the best around.

Thanks to their team, our members are provided with accurate, timely, and professional statements, and all my marketing materials look great!"

"As a new CEO, not only was I going through my first-ever bi-annual member account verification audit with my statements, but it was also our first time using LKCS to do so. I couldn’t have been happier with the process! My reps assisted me through every necessary step, from onsert wording to envelope style and return address… they know every detail and have it covered! Not only that, but they prepared plenty of time ahead so I could rest easy knowing it was taken care of! And just like with every other service, they are easy, friendly, and attentive. Thanks, LKCS!"
