What is Check Positive Pay?

Check Positive Pay is a cash management tool that helps us keep your hard-earned money safe from potential fraud through early detection.

We make it easy for you to immediately review and verify checks with Check Positive Pay right from your online banking profile. It works by verifying check information and reporting suspected forgeries, modification, or counterfeit. Upon review, any details that don’t match check details you submitted, are immediately flagged by the bank.

  • Increased Efficiency
  • Reduced Cost
  • Asset Protection

 Positive Pay in 3 Simple Steps

Write a check and send us the following details:

  • Check number
  • Check amount
  • Payee name
  • Issue date

When we receive one of those checks, we crossmatch the details against the ones you sent us after issuing the check.

We will notify you immediately regarding the next steps if the information you sent doesn’t match the check we receive. You then decide if you would like us to process that payment.








 

Is Reverse Positive Pay Better For You?

If you write a low volume of checks, Reverse Positive Pay may be a better fit for you. This tool flips the standard Check Positive Pay process; so instead of sending us a list of issued checks, we send you a list of checks that have been presented for payment. You get to review each check and decide what should be paid or returned. 

How It Works:

  1. You write a check.
  2. We receive the check for payment.
  3. We send a list of those checks to you—typically each business day.
  4. You review and flag any that look suspicious.
  5. Approved items clear. Rejected ones are returned unpaid.
