H-E-B to offer self-serve payment kiosks at select stores

By early spring 2009, cash-preferred H-E-B customers will be able to make expedited bill payments on their wireless, utility, cable and other accounts through self-serve automated kiosks. Customers will also be able to purchase prepaid products and services and reload pre-paid debit cards. These self-serve kiosks will be positioned adjacent to or nearby H-E-B's Business Centers to enhance the services H-E-B currently provides and to add access to bill payment capabilities currently not offered. The kiosks will also help alleviate payment traffic during peak payment periods.

"With these kiosks, we hope to provide our customers with a convenient service that enhances their one-stop shopping experience in our stores," said Winell Herron, H-E-B group VP of public affairs and diversity.
