INB's Positive Pay Service
The most effective way to protect your company against check fraud is with INB's Positive Pay service. Your company sends a file of issued checks to INB. As checks clear, INB automatically compares the account number, check number, and dollar amount to the file of issued checks. If those components do not match exactly, the check becomes an "exception item".
INB notifies your company of the exception items and their corresponding check images on-line each business day. Your company determines the authenticity of each check and provides INB with a pay/no pay decision on-line. Fraudulent items are returned by INB unpaid.
Positive Pay provides:
- Convenience – Review potentially fraudulent items on-line.
- Protection – Items are paid/returned per your instructions.
- Peace of Mind – Checks are compared to the issue file sent by your company allowing you to return any items that do not match.
INB's Positive Pay Service allows you to do the following:
View Exception Report
INB's Positive Pay Service allows customers to view the exception report and the corresponding check images on-line. Drop down menus are provided allowing customers to provide instructions to pay or return a check.
Manual Issue
Customers can enter manual issue or manual void information on-line.
Check Warehouse
A check warehouse is available which houses images of cleared checks on-line for a timeframe specified by the customer. Customers can generate reports and perform inquiries by entering criteria for their search. If an issue file is provided, customers can generate reports and perform inquiries based on data from the issue file as well as data INB has captured. For example, a customer can generate a report of all the payments received for a particular customer number, claim number, policy number, or invoice number. After the report is generated, corresponding images of cleared checks are available for viewing.
