I totally dispute "deadlyassassin"s tagging of this as spam and/or non notable-none of it is advertising for the company, and it is one of the largest check companies, so where's the notability issue? If this editor has a problem, put it up for a legitimate AfD, not this sweep-under-the-rug nonsense. Chris (クリス) (talk) 08:19, 2 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

I have a few paragraphs that I would like to have posted to an existing Wikipedia article. My paragraphs include references, which should be added to the Wikipedia entry as well.

Second largest?

edit
Latest comment: 14 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

We now have two competing sources that say Deluxe is either the largest or second largest check printer. I'm inclined to believe Reuters India, since it's more recent, and the other ref just says the merger has been approved, not that it already happened. For now I changed the wording and will try to track this down. Rees11 (talk) 17:29, 3 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

It does look like Harland Clarke (sub of M & F Worldwide) might be bigger, but I can't find a source that says so. And it would depend on how you measure "bigness." Rees11 (talk) 17:38, 3 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I am Jeremy from the public relations firm Cookerly on behalf of our client Deluxe Corporation. I’m here to seek updates to this article, which is quite dated at this point. In an effort to keep everything above board, I am proposing my changes here on the article Talk page for others to review and publish on my behalf if the content meets the appropriate content policies. For my first request, I prepared an updated infobox with Deluxe's new CFO, Scott Bomar,[1] updated financials,[3] and number of employees from 2020.[2] Can editors update the infobox if these changes are appropriate? Please note that I disabled the logo on the Talk page. Thank you. JeremyJuhasz (talk) 17:31, 27 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Business units request

edit
Latest comment: 3 years ago11 comments3 people in discussion

Hi, this is Jeremy from the public relations firm Cookerly on behalf of our client Deluxe Corporation. I’m here with another request for this article. Business units is also quite dated at this point, as the information is at least 12 years old, and the entire section cites LinkedIn, which I understand is not a reliable source for Wikipedia.

I prepared an updated section that could replace Business units. I renamed the section Corporate overview and updated its business units, while also including details of the company's status, headquarters, leadership, and other pertinent information.

Corporate overview
Deluxe Corporation is a public company traded on the New York Stock Exchange. It is headquartered in Shoreview, Minnesota,[1] and has announced plans to move to downtown Minneapolis in 2021.[2] Cheryl Mayberry McKissack is chairwoman.[1] Since November 2018, Barry McCarthy has served as Deluxe's president and chief executive officer.[3][4] In 2020, McCarthy created a new management team, including the company's first-ever chief revenue officer, and instituted a new organizational structure.[3][1] As a result, Deluxe has four business divisions: cloud, payments, promotional products, and checks.[3] As of 2020, Deluxe's clients include the Federal Reserve,[3] 4.5 million small businesses and 4,000 financial institutions as customers.[5] Through its systems for customers to send and receive payments, Deluxe processes more than $2.8 trillion in annual payments.[3] In June 2021, Scott Bomar was named CFO.[6]
Deluxe also produces a small business reality TV show called Small Business Revolution on Hulu and Amazon Prime Video, where the company helps revitalize small towns selected by viewers by offering advice to struggling businesses.[3][7][8] The show launched in 2016 to help small businesses in towns across the U.S. with marketing strategy, financial advice, and design improvements, among other things,[9] and position Deluxe as a provider of small business solutions in light of decreases in paper check use due to debit/credit cards and online payment systems.[7] The show's sixth season is co-hosted by Amanda Brinkman and Baron Davis, focusing on Black-owned businesses in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.[10] Previous co-hosts include Robert Herjavec and Ty Pennington.[10]

This looks too promotional to me, so I'm leaning towards declining this request. Quetstar (talk) 02:05, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  Note: I find it unclear whether one of the major sources, the one from CNBC, is reliable. It does appear to be written by an actual journalist, but it also appears to be published under the "Technology Executive Council", which to me suggests the company may have had influence over it. Regardless, it might be fine per WP:ABOUTSELF, though of course with caution. I agree it looks a little too promotional. (pinging JeremyJuhasz) — Lauritz Thomsen (talk) 05:23, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  Not done: After further review, i find this request too promotional and therefore decline it. Quetstar (talk) 16:49, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Quetstar: I appreciate your review of this request. Can you provide specific feedback about what makes it too promotional? That way I can revise my draft and come back with something that is better suited for Wikipedia. The current Business units section cites LinkedIn and it is 12 years outdated, so I'm hoping to provide more useful information that is in line with Wikipedia's rules. I appreciate your guidance. Thank you. JeremyJuhasz (talk) 20:41, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
@JeremyJuhasz: First, i would remove the paragraph about the TV show, as it is not notable enough. Second, I would rewrite the first paragraph so that it focuses on Deluxe's operations and activities rather than its executives. I hope that answers your questions. Quetstar (talk) 21:07, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Quetstar: Thank you. I updated my draft, which you can see below, based on your feedback. You can see that I have removed the paragraph about the TV show and focused the remaining paragraph on its operations rather than its executives. Additionally, I included new citations to supplement the CNBC source.

History request

edit
Latest comment: 3 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, this is Jeremy from the public relations firm Cookerly on behalf of our client Deluxe Corporation. I’m here with another request for this article. History is fairly short for a 106-year-old company. Specifically, it is missing material from the 1980s to the present about the impact of digital payment systems on Deluxe and the company's growth. Some of this is alluded to with the Company acquisitions table, but the table itself is unsourced or poorly sourced in places; I attempted to contextualize the key acquisitions by incorporating them in paragraph form.

Among my updates are:

  1. Adding detail on early history (the business was founded after securing a $300 loan)
  2. Contextualizing Deluxe's expansion from a check printing company to include its other business service operations
  3. Correcting the year the Deluxe Corporation Foundation was founded to 1954
  4. Fleshing out the gap between 1988 and 2008
  5. Adding a paragraph on the impact of digital payment systems on Deluxe's business, and how Deluxe shifted its focus as a result
  6. Including acquisitions in paragraph form for context and improved sourcing
  7. Including a short paragraph on Deluxe's TV show Small Business Revolution
  8. Including moves by current CEO Barry McCarthy to reorganize Deluxe
  9. Including the grant of stock to all companies
  10. Including Deluxe's FinTech and Customer Innovation Center
  11. Adding Deluxe's largest acquisition (the $960 million acquisition of First American Payment Systems in April 2021)
History
Deluxe Corporation was founded as Deluxe Check Printers in 1915 by W.R. Hotchkiss in Saint Paul, Minnesota, after Hotchkiss secured a $300 loan.[1][2] Hotchkiss was the creator of some important, speed-enhancing inventions, which included the Hotchkiss Imprinting Press (patented in 1925), a two-way perforator, and the Hotchkiss Lithograph Press (patented in 1928). He also created the first personal flat-pocket checkbook and holder.[1] For most of its early history, Deluxe operated largely as a check printing company. Its other business service operations would come later as the advent of digital payment systems impacted Deluxe's core business.[3]
In 1954, the Deluxe Corporation Foundation was created to contribute to charitable organizations.[4] The company was privately held until 1965, during which time it began using magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) check printing technology.[5] By the 1980s, the company was facing reduced demand for its products and increasing competition.[6] In 1988, the company incorporated and changed its name to Deluxe Corporation.[7] In the early 1990s the company expanded into customer service for businesses.[3]
As use of digital payment systems gained popularity, Deluxe's core business was impacted significantly. In the mid-1990s, the company announced an expansion of its transaction processing and software businesses.[8] Deluxe began selling business forms and supplies, promotional products and offered other business services, such as payroll.[9] In 1999, Deluxe employed 15,400 people and operated 13 check-printing plants. In 2004, Deluxe employed 9,300 with eight plants.[9] Deluxe acquired small business services provider New England Business Service in 2004.[10] Deluxe shifted its focus from printing products to primarily business services in 2008.[11] It launched an employee background-screening service called HireRight and expanded its service offerings through acquisitions.[11] This included the 2008 purchases of Hostopia (web hosting), Logo Mojo (logo design), and PartnerUp (market intelligence),[11][12] and the 2009 acquisition of search engine marketer MerchEngines.[13]
From 2010 onward, Deluxe expanded its offerings to include web hosting, marketing services, promotional items, payroll management tools, and other services by acquiring more than 50 companies,[2] including online printing service PsPrint and web-based marketing firm OrangeSoda,[1] email marketing company VerticalResponse (2014),[14] transaction processing company Wausau Financial Services (2014),[15] and logo designer LogoMix (2018),[16], among others. It also began offering echecks.[17]
Deluxe launched a small business reality TV show called Small Business Revolution in 2016 to help small businesses rebuild Main Streets across the U.S. with mentoring and donations of $500,000 each season.[18][19][20] The show is distributed on Hulu and Amazon Prime Video.[21][20][22] Co-hosts have included Baron Davis, Robert Herjavec, Ty Pennington and Amanda Brinkman.[23] In 2021, the show was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lifestyle Series.[24]
Due to Deluxe's growth via acquisitions, Deluxe operated as a "company of companies". In 2018 when Barry McCarthy became CEO, one of his stated main initiatives was to create a Transformation Leadership Office to remove the company's silos and enable employees to sell products more efficiently, and to clarify Deluxe's offerings with customers.[21][2]
Deluxe granted at least $750 in company stock to all of its employees in April 2019 to give all employees a stake in ownership.[21] Also in 2019, Deluxe secured three of the largest deals in its history, including contracts with Synchrony Financial.[21]
In 2020, McCarthy created a new management team, including the company's first-ever chief revenue officer, and instituted a new organizational structure.[21][25]
In 2020, Deluxe partnered with Salesforce to create one database of Deluxe customers across all its businesses. The move was aimed at streamlining Deluxe's sales processes.[21][2] In September, Deluxe announced it would open its FinTech and Customer Innovation Center in Sandy Springs, Georgia, in 2021, focusing on payment and cloud services business.[26][27] The hub bolsters Deluxe's financial technology, payment, and cloud services.[27]
Deluxe acquired First American Payment Systems, a payment processing company, for $960 million in April 2021.[28] The deal was Deluxe's largest to-date,[28] and was aimed at growing Deluxe's digital payments business.[29] First American provides tools for merchants to process in-store and online payments.[30] Barron's reported that First American Payment Systems generated $300 million in revenue and the acquisition was expected to double annual revenue of Deluxe's payments business.[28]

History request part I

edit
Latest comment: 3 years ago6 comments3 people in discussion

Hi, this is Jeremy from the public relations firm Cookerly on behalf of our client Deluxe Corporation. Above editor Quetstar suggested I be more concise with my request to update History, so I will break my request up in smaller bits so it's not such a heavy lift for reviewers. With this request, I will focus on the first paragraphs of History. I highlighted my proposed changes yellow. The updates are:

  1. Adding detail on early history (the business was founded after securing a $300 loan)
  2. Rewriting the sentence: "Deluxe was originally a check printing company, but in the early 1900s expanded into customer service for businesses." That is incorrect; customer service for businesses did not start in the early 1900s, it was the early 1990s (see below)
  3. Correcting the year the Deluxe Corporation Foundation was founded to 1954
  4. Adding that Deluxe expanded into customer service for businesses in the early 1990s, after the company faced reduced demand for its products and increasing competition in the 1980s

Can editors update the first two paragraphs of History with the following changes if appropriate?

Deluxe Corporation was founded as Deluxe Check Printers in 1915 by W.R. Hotchkiss in Saint Paul, Minnesota, after Hotchkiss secured a $300 loan.[1][2] Hotchkiss was the creator of some important, speed-enhancing inventions, which included the Hotchkiss Imprinting Press (patented in 1925), a two-way perforator, and the Hotchkiss Lithograph Press (patented in 1928). He also created the first personal flat-pocket checkbook and holder.[1] For most of its early history, Deluxe operated largely as a check printing company. Its other business service operations would come later as the advent of digital payment systems impacted Deluxe's core business.[3]
In 1954, the Deluxe Corporation Foundation was created to contribute to charitable organizations.[4] The company was privately held until 1965, during which time it began using magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) check printing technology.[5] By the 1980s, the company was facing reduced demand for its products and increasing competition.[6] In 1988, the company incorporated and changed its name to Deluxe Corporation.[7] In the early 1990s the company expanded into customer service for businesses.[3]

@JeremyJuhasz: Done the first addition, about the loan. I will come back to the rest later, as source 4 would probably be better off if a digital version could be found. Yeeno (talk) 🍁 07:11, 21 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Yeeno Thank you! JeremyJuhasz (talk) 17:33, 21 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Yeeno I know you mentioned that you would return to the rest of the edits. Are you able to complete the others in this particular request as outlined and, if so, do so in the near future? Thank you for your time! JeremyJuhasz (talk) 17:56, 24 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
I know you've been waiting a while and thank you for being careful about handling your conflict of interest.
  1.   Done I see that #1 has been completed by User:Yeeno
  2.   Partly done I've updated the last sentence in the first paragraph in the History section to remove the inaccurate 1900s date. However, it would be preferably to find a better source for that shift in business model. The source book is not a scholarly work and is summarizing an article written by a Deluxe executive with no apparent fact-checking by the book's author. The point about digital payment systems impacting Deluxe's core business is an interesting one but I'd want to see a more reliable scholarly or journalistic source make that statement before we include it. See WP:BIASED.
  3.   Done I've also updated the foundation date of the Deluxe Corporation Foundation (and added a digital clipping of the reference). However, as with #2, this is not a great source as it appears to be simply an announcement by Big Brothers & Sisters of Portage County vs. a news article. Without better sourcing this sentence may be removed in future. See WP:NEWSORG and specifically bullet 2.
  4.   Done I've added the line about expansion into customer services but see #2 for issues with the source being used here.
Feel free to raise another edit request with better sourcing for #2 and if you're able to provide better sources for #2-#4 that'll help prevent those statements from being removed in future. DatraxMada (talk) 19:10, 20 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
@DatraxMada Thank you for this thorough review and feedback, especially pertaining to the sourcing. Very grateful for your expertise and time to make these changes. I will raise another edit request for this history section very soon and would greatly appreciate your help again once that request is submitted.

History request part II

edit
Latest comment: 2 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, this is Jeremy from the public relations firm Cookerly on behalf of our client Deluxe Corporation. Continuing my effort to seek updates to History, I am here with a new request.Quetstar previously asked that I make my suggested edits to History more concise, which is why I am seeking smaller requests in bits. DatraxMada graciously edited the first part very recently.

With this request, I ask editors to replace the third paragraph of History and the acquisition table with two paragraphs I provide below. The goal here is to better summarize the impact of the changing business landscape on Deluxe's operations, add context as to how the company's acquisitions played a role in Deluxe's expanded business offerings, and improve sourcing. As I did last time, I highlighted my proposed changes yellow.

As use of digital payment systems gained popularity, Deluxe's core business was impacted significantly. In the mid-1990s, the company announced an expansion of its transaction processing and software businesses.[1] Deluxe began selling business forms and supplies, promotional products and offered other business services, such as payroll.[2] In 1999, Deluxe employed 15,400 people and operated 13 check-printing plants. In 2004,Deluxe employed 9,300 with eight plants.[2] Deluxe acquired small business services provider New England Business Service in 2004.[3] Deluxe shifted its focus from printing products to primarily business services in 2008.[4] It launched an employee background-screening service called HireRight and expanded its service offerings through acquisitions.[4] This included the 2008 purchases of Hostopia (web hosting), Logo Mojo (logo design), and PartnerUp (market intelligence),[4][5] and the 2009 acquisition of search engine marketer MerchEngines.[6]
From 2010 onward, Deluxe expanded its offerings to include web hosting, marketing services, promotional items, payroll management tools, and other services by acquiring more than 50 companies,[7] including online printing service PsPrint and web-based marketing firm OrangeSoda,[8] email marketing company VerticalResponse (2014),[9] transaction processing company Wausau Financial Services (2014),[10] and logo designer LogoMix (2018),[11], among others. It also began offering echecks.[12]

History request part III

edit
Latest comment: 2 years ago6 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, this is Jeremy from the public relations firm Cookerly on behalf of our client Deluxe Corporation. This is my third and last request to update History. I have been requesting updates in smaller chunks to make it easier for reviewers. With this request, I focus on 2016-to the present. I ask editors to add the following paragraphs of new content to close out the History section.

Among my updates are:

  1. Including a short paragraph on Deluxe's TV show Small Business Revolution
  2. Including moves by current CEO Barry McCarthy to reorganize Deluxe
  3. Including the grant of stock to all companies
  4. Including Deluxe's FinTech and Customer Innovation Center
  5. Adding Deluxe's largest acquisition (the $960 million acquisition of First American Payment Systems in April 2021)

This is all new content, but I highlighted it yellow to accentuate that it's new.

Deluxe launched a small business reality TV show called Small Business Revolution in 2016 to help small businesses rebuild Main Streets across the U.S. with mentoring and donations of $500,000 each season.[1][2][3] The show is distributed on Hulu and Amazon Prime Video. [4][3][5] Co-hosts have included Baron Davis, Robert Herjavec, Ty Pennington and Amanda Brinkman.[6] In 2021, the show was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lifestyle Series.[7]
Due to Deluxe's growth via acquisitions, Deluxe operated as a "company of companies". In 2018 when Barry McCarthy became CEO, one of his stated main initiatives was to create a Transformation Leadership Office to remove the company's silos and enable employees to sell products more efficiently, and to clarify Deluxe's offerings with customers.[4][8]
Deluxe granted at least $750 in company stock to all of its employees in April 2019 to give all employees a stake in ownership.[4] Also in 2019, Deluxe secured three of the largest deals in its history, including contracts with Synchrony Financial.[4]
In 2020, McCarthy created a new management team, including the company's first-ever chief revenue officer, and instituted a new organizational structure.[4][9]
In 2020, Deluxe partnered with Salesforce to create one database of Deluxe customers across all its businesses. The move was aimed at streamlining Deluxe's sales processes.[4][8] In September, Deluxe announced it would open its FinTech and Customer Innovation Center in Sandy Springs, Georgia, in 2021, focusing on payment and cloud services business.[10][11] The hub bolsters Deluxe's financial technology, payment and cloud services.[11]
Deluxe acquired First American Payment Systems, a payment processing company, for $960 million in April 2021.[12] The deal was Deluxe's largest to-date,[12] and was aimed at growing Deluxe's digital payments business.[13] First American provides tools for merchants to process in-store and online payments.[13] Barron's reported that First American Payment Systems generated $300 million in revenue and the acquisition was expected to double annual revenue of Deluxe's payments business.[12]

Walmart Checks

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The above back-and-forth on COI-sourced edits only apply to this company. What about the reading public, and their interest in knowing about what other options exist?

While DeLuxe's prices per box of checks compares to the price from Walmart Checks, the latter includes more checks per box: 150 Walmart vs. 125 DeLuxe. A third option for getting blank checks is via one's bank, which applies a markup.

A variation on the one's bank idea is, for whose who can tolerate a color-less check, is just that: white paper with black ink. It may not look like what people expect on a check, but it is an option, and may not even require a markup! Nuts240 (talk) 02:07, 26 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
