Stop Check Fraud Before It Starts with Positive Pay

In an era where check fraud is becoming increasingly sophisticated, manual monitoring isn’t enough. Positive Pay is your business’s automated security guard, providing a powerful layer of protection for your accounts payable.

 


How It Works

It’s a simple "match and verify" system designed to ensure only the checks you’ve authorized actually get paid:

  • You Upload: Send us a digital file of the checks your business issues (including check numbers, dates, and amounts).

  • We Compare: When a check is presented for payment, our system automatically compares it against your list.

  • You Decide: If anything doesn't match—like a changed dollar amount or an unknown check number—we flag it and alert you immediately. You then tell us whether to Pay or Return.


Why Your Business Needs It

  • Fraud Prevention: Virtually eliminates the risk of forged, altered, or counterfeit checks draining your account.

  • Total Control: You have the final say on any suspicious activity before funds ever leave your balance.

  • Peace of Mind: Automate your security so you can focus on growing your business, not policing your paper trail.
