Electronic Check Conversion
Electronic Check Conversion
is the process of converting a paper based check into an electronic
transaction at the point-of-sale.
The check information is then transmitted via electronic equipment
to a national verification database where it is evaluated
against negative information. Within seconds a response is
sent back to the merchant. A receipt very similar to a credit
card transaction is generated and the customer signs it, thereby
authorizing the electronic collection of funds to the merchant.
The check information is then stored and the transaction deposits
are routed to the merchant's account within 48 to 72 hours.

the overall convenience, and safety, of accepting a form of
payment that is absolutely guaranteed. Electronic check conversion
process not only processes the check electronically, allowing
