How Can Payee Positive Pay Help?

Unlike personal accounts, businesses only have 24 hours to detect and report fraud to their bank. With Positive Pay, only checks and ACH transactions that you approve are able to go through. All unauthorized transactions are rejected.

In addition, checks and ACH payments are automatically monitored so that unauthorized transactions are flagged for review. This means that checks that don’t match a customer’s check register and electronic withdrawals that aren’t whitelisted won’t be able to clear against the customer’s account without their authorization.

Payee Positive Pay also features an Account Reconciliation function which helps customers reconcile issued payments against their balance to account for outstanding payments.
