What Is Mobile and Remote Deposit? 

Remote deposit allows your business to process deposits without leaving the office. Using a high-speed check scanner and a secure online portal, you can scan checks from your desk and transmit them directly to the bank for deposit. You also have the option to use mobile deposit through our app, simply snapping a photo of the check from your phone. This means no more trips to the branch—funds are deposited directly into your account, giving you faster access to cash, saving time, improving cash flow, and reducing the risk of check fraud.

Key Benefits for Your Business 

  1. Convenience & Time Savings
    With mobile and remote deposits, your team can process checks on your own schedule. No more leaving the office mid-day to deliver deposits, mobile and remote deposits bring the bank to you.

  2. Faster Funds Availability
    Submitting deposits electronically means you’ll often see funds available more quickly than waiting for physical processing. That can help you maintain healthier cash flow and plan ahead with more confidence.

  3. Enhanced Security
    Mobile and remote deposits reduce the risk of lost or stolen checks during transport. Advanced encryption and secure transmission ensure sensitive information is protected. 

  4. Streamlined Operations
    With built-in reporting and digital records, reconciliation becomes simpler. Mobile and remote deposits integrate seamlessly into your accounting process, freeing up time for your staff to focus on higher-value work.
