Real-Time Check Verification — Secure Payments with eCheckplan

In the ever-evolving world of payment processing, ensuring the security of transactions is a top priority for businesses. Fraudulent payments and insufficient funds can disrupt operations, tarnish reputations, and lead to financial losses. To address these challenges, eCheckplan offers an innovative solution: real-time check verification powered by the National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA). This feature not only streamlines payment processes but also protects your business from unnecessary risks.

What Is Check Verification?

Check verification is a process that confirms the validity of a customer’s bank account before processing a transaction. It identifies potential issues, such as closed accounts or insufficient funds, allowing businesses to avoid failed payments. With eCheckplan, this process is taken to the next level with real-time updates and an intuitive, user-friendly interface.

How eCheckplan’s Real-Time Check Verification Works: –

At the heart of eCheckplan’s check verification service is its integration with NACHA, a non-profit organization that oversees the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network. NACHA’s network processes over 29 billion transactions annually, moving more than $72 trillion. This extensive network ensures that eCheckplan’s verification service provides accurate and reliable data.

When you enter a transaction into eCheckplan’s portal, the system assigns a colored dot to indicate the status of the customer’s bank account. Here’s what each color means:

🔵  Blue Dot:

The transaction is recorded, but no action has been taken yet. This means the system has captured the payment details, and the account verification process is in progress. Businesses can monitor these transactions to ensure they move to the next stage seamlessly.

🟢  Green Dot:

The bank account is verified, and the transaction is ready to be deposited. This status assures businesses that the customer’s account is active, has sufficient funds, and is safe to proceed with the transaction. By quickly processing green-dot transactions, businesses can enhance cash flow and reduce payment delays.

⚫  Black Dot:

No data is available, typically because the account is with a local or small bank. In such cases, businesses might need to request alternative payment methods or perform additional verification steps to ensure the transaction’s success.

🔴  Red Dot:

The bank account verification failed—the transaction should not be deposited. This status typically indicates issues such as a closed account, insufficient funds, or incorrect account details. Taking immediate action to stop these transactions can save businesses from chargebacks and penalties.

This real-time feedback allows businesses to take immediate action, minimizing risks and ensuring smooth operations.

Key Benefits of Real-Time Check Verification: –

1. Fraud Prevention

Fraudulent checks are a significant concern for businesses. According to industry data, businesses lose an average of $3.6 billion annually to check fraud. eCheckplan’s real-time verification helps you identify and block bad transactions (marked with a red dot) before they reach your bank.

2. Streamlined Operations

The green dot status ensures that verified transactions are ready for processing without delays. This reduces the need for manual checks, saving time and resources.

3. Reduced Chargebacks

Chargebacks can cost businesses both money and reputation. By verifying bank accounts in real-time, eCheckplan helps you avoid chargebacks resulting from insufficient funds or closed accounts.

4. Improved Decision-Making

With instant insights into the status of a customer’s bank account, businesses can make informed decisions. For example, if a transaction is marked with a black dot, you might consider requesting an alternative payment method.
