Every Penny Counts is the only Rounder program operating with a valid patent!
Important Note:
Some banks are hesitant to license with EPC because they fear
that Bank of America will sue them and stop them from offering
the EPC Rounder program. The fact is Bank of America cannot sue them because they do not have a patent, only an application,
which
has been rejected three times. The third rejections was a
final rejection.

Bank of America's patent application, go to:

Data, click on "Image File Wrapper". On rejections, note
all the references to the inventor, Bertram Burke,
Ph.D. (EPC
co-founder), for rounding, etc.
U.S. Savings Steadily Declining
“The rate of personal saving in the U.S. has been declining steadily since the 1980’s….and hit an astounding
zero in June 2005.” Source: Federal Reserve Board of Governors
In fact, Americans have one of the lowest rates of saving in the industrialized world.
Every Penny Counts makes it easy for America to get back into the savings habit. It’s easy, convenient and couldn’t be more simple.
Customer satisfaction increases as savers begin
to see their savings accumulate. Studies have shown that once people begin to see their savings account grow, they are motivated to add more. There is also the “good feeling” that comes when the saver begins
to see their money accumulate.
Let’s work together to get America saving again!
EPC Rounder - It’s good for Americans and it’s good business
for your financial institution!
