FRAUD PREVENTION
SOLUTIONS

Stay ahead of check and ACH fraud.

Detect earlier, decide faster and reduce losses.

Pair Positive Pay for checks with ACH Positive Pay—plus optional Payee Match, ACH Block and ACH Filter—for layered defense across your payment rails.

PROACTIVE DETECTION

Match your issued-check file against presented items; get alerts on discrepancies so you can pay or return.

ACH CONTROLS

Set sender/amount rules, allowlists (filters) and blocks for ACH debits; receive alerts and decide to pay or return items, with a default to return if no decision.

CENTRALIZED OVERSIGHT

Manage exceptions and approvals in Business Online; upload issue files via the website or SFTP; add Payee Match for a second layer on check payees.

CHECK POSITIVE PAY

Help protect against forgery, alteration and counterfeit checks with automated exception review.

  • Compares your check-issue data to items presented for clearing; you get an alert on mismatches and decide to pay or return. If you don’t respond, it defaults to return.
  • Payee Match (optional): Adds a second security layer by matching the payee name field and prompting a decision on discrepancies.
  • Access via Business Online; submit issues manually, upload via the website, or send files via SFTP; teller system sees issue data in real time.
