Our Fraud Prevention services include:
Reduce the risk of potential check and ACH fraud with our Positive Pay system, a business best practice.
What is Positive Pay?
Positive Pay is an automated service that helps detect fraud by matching the company’s issued check information with the check presented for payment. The information on the presented check must match what is contained in a file sent by the client to the bank. If there is no match, the check is flagged, and the client is notified.
Why use Positive Pay?
Check fraud exceeds over $20,000,000,000.00 annually. Scammers and bad actors use the latest technologies to mimic checks. Positive Pay helps prevent check fraud and keeps company funds secure.
Mitigate risks and safeguard against unauthorized transactions by using our ACH Filter system, which automatically matches transactions presented to your account against transactions you’ve authorized.
What is ACH Filter?
Businesses that set recurring ACH payments to vendors or other entities can safeguard against fraudulent activity with ACH Filter. Clients using ACH Filter establish specific criteria for authorized payments. This criterion is matched against ACH transactions presented for payment. When a discrepancy is found, the client is notified and determines if the transaction should be paid or returned.
Why use ACH Filter?
ACH Filter gives you control over pay-or-no-pay decisions on electronic transactions. It is a quick, efficient, and time-saving process for reducing the risk of potential fraud.
For added security, consider our Dual Approval System, which requires multiple approvers for ACH and wire payments.
What is Dual Approval?
Dual Approval is simply a process requiring one individual to initiate wire or ACH payments and a second individual to approve the transaction.
Why use Dual Approval?
Dual Approval provides another level of security and control for outgoing payments.
As a larger business, leverage our partnership with Argos Risk® for continuous evaluation of your third-party relationships. Enjoy 24/7 monitoring, with instant notifications of significant changes.
