The Processing Flow of Our Electronic Check Service

ECS from Iroquois Merchant Services supports real-time processing of paper checks for point-of-purchase, back office conversion and accounts receivable.

Point-of-purchase: When the payer presents the check to the business, it is processed through the reader/imager. Once it is approved, the payer will sign the receipt and get the check back. The check is marked as “electronically processed” on the back.
Accounts receivable: Once the business receives the check via mail or other delivery method, the check is processed through the reader/imager. It will be validated and authorized according to the way the business has been set up. Once processed, the business destroys the check.
Back-office conversion: The check is presented to the business and then processed through the reader/imager. No signature is required from the payer. The payer receives a receipt or notice that the check will be processed electronically, and the check will not be returned.

All eCheck payments will be processed in accordance with applicable regulations and business requirements. Approved transactions and images are reconciled and financially credited to the business’s bank account.

Our Electronic Check Service will save you the time of filling out deposit slips and going to the bank. It will remove any worry about checks possibly getting lost or stolen. Plus, it will ensure that you are paid quickly. Ready to accept eChecks? Contact us to sign up.
