Deluxe Corporation was founded by W.R. Hotchkiss in St. Paul, Minnesota as Deluxe Check Printers. Hotchkiss invented the Hotchkiss Imprinting Press, which allowed three business checks to print on the same page, a two-way perforator, and the Hotchkiss Lithograph Press, which improved check quality.
Sales hit the $1 million mark for the first time in 1940, the year that also marked the 25th anniversary for the company.
In the 1980’s Deluxe offered computerized forms, introduced business forms, began using the Deluxe Computer Operated Press to produce the best checks, and introduced internet banking check-ordering in 1988.
Since 1988 Deluxe Check Printers has refocused as Deluxe Corporation, providing various personalized products and services to small businesses, financial institutions, and consumers.
Today Deluxe is organized into three operating segments: Deluxe Financial Services, Deluxe Small Business Services, and Direct Checks. The company has 33 facilities in the United States and three locations in Canada to fulfill printing, fulfillment, call center, and administrative functions.
Deluxe has 5,400 employees and had $1.52 billion in revenue in 2012.
