Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

        Richard L. Schulte, a Senior Vice President of Deluxe Corporation (the “Company”), and president of the Company’s Small Business Services (“SBS”) business unit, has resigned from the Company to pursue another employment opportunity, effective September 15, 2006. Pending the outcome of the Company’s previously announced plans to review its business models and operations for opportunities to achieve cost savings and operating efficiencies, leverage its sales, marketing and call center capabilities across the enterprise, and otherwise improve its performance, the vice presidents responsible for finance, marketing and sales for SBS will report directly to Lee Schram, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO). In addition to providing a continuity of leadership for SBS, the Company expects the close working relationship between the CEO and the senior leaders within SBS to facilitate implementation of SBS’s strategic growth plans.
