Converts Paper Checks Into Electronic Items

Designed to mirror the process currently used for credit cards, the ECA® service converts paper checks into electronic items at the point of sale and automatically deposits these funds into your bank account utilizing compact sophisticated terminals like the First Data™ FD200 and Verifone’s Eclipse, processesing checks, credit cards and debit cards all-in-one.

Release The Power

The process is simple. After the check issuer presents his check, which the clerk then authorizes through TeleCheck® and gives the check issuer a printed receipt for signature. This signature allows TeleCheck® to electronically present the transaction to the check writer’s bank for settlement and that money is automatically deposited in your account. And, because the electronic transaction is TeleCheck’s responsibility, if it fails to clear the check writer’s account, you’ll never see a returned check or returned check fees. The bad check or transaction is TeleCheck’s responsibility.
