Transportation credit processing business Electronic Funds Source, LLC, (EFS) announced it has acquired T-Chek Systems, Inc. (T-Chek), of Eden Prairie, Minn., from C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. for $302.5 million in cash. EFS acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities of T-Chek.
T-Chek, which had annual payment services net revenues of $49.3 million and operating income of $24.6 million last year, is a business-to-business provider of payment processing services. T-Chek's technology supports funds transfer, vendor payment, fuel purchasing, and online expense management tools.
EFS said in a prepared statement that the company does not expect T-Chek customers to require a card change or reissuance, nor work with new customer support personnel as it systematically upgrades both applications.
