Merchant Check Processing
Monday, August 18th, 2008Welcome back!
Processing checks at the point-of-sale is becomming very popular. New technology allows merchants to convert a paper check, into an electronic transaction. The check is then “Guaranteed”, removing the financial risk to the merchant. This technology will also create “Customer Loyalty”, as they will choose to do business with you, instead of doing business with your competitor.
Customers can take advantage of the “Float”, which is typically two business days before the funds are needed to be deposited into their account. Typically customers will use this prior to their payday, on a purchase needed today. Again, the check processing transaction is “100% Guaranteed” to the merchant, so the risk of the check bouncing is of no concern to the merchant.
A simple check reader is attached to your credit card machine to process the check. The merchant would simply swipe the check through the reader and enter the required information in the credit card machine. The information is transmitted to the Check Company and a “Guaranteed Prompt” is received back to your machine within seconds. The transaction is completed by returning the receipt & voided check, back to your customer. It’s that simple.
Funds are electronically deposited into your business account !!!!!
If you have any questions about check processing, please give me a call to discuss your needs.
