Case Study: Russell Sigler achieves 30-day ROI by migrating checks to virtual card with FIS Integrated Payables

Reducing Checks and Increasing Electronic Payments Russell Sigler Sees ROI in First 30 Days of Integrated Payables

Russell Sigler, a US HVAC distributor, was printing about 300 checks per week and wanted to cut payments-processing costs, free up AP time, and migrate checks to electronic payments. To do this it partnered with FIS and adopted FIS’s bank-agnostic integrated payments platform and vendor enrollment program to simplify payments and accelerate electronic adoption.

FIS implemented a 12‑week rollout—mapping payment files, setting up bank connections and remittance layouts, and running a vendor enrollment campaign—then began weekly payment processing on Russell Sigler’s behalf. As a result, FIS helped migrate a portion of payments to virtual card, outsourced check printing and mailing, delivered ROI within the first 30 days, and generated ongoing monthly rebates that are being reinvested into the business.
