2 terms

positive pay financial

"Business customers benefit from integrated Positive Pay & ACH Reporting capabilities"

A bank service that helps a company prevent check fraud by comparing checks presented for payment against a preapproved list of issued checks and stopping any that don't match. Think of it as a bouncer checking a guest list before letting people in — it protects a company’s cash, reduces unexpected losses, and signals stronger financial controls, which matters to investors because it lowers operational and credit risk and helps preserve shareholder value.

ach reporting financial

"Business customers benefit from integrated Positive Pay & ACH Reporting capabilities"

ACH reporting documents the movement and status of electronic bank transfers handled through the Automated Clearing House network, including deposits, withdrawals, returned payments and settlement summaries. For investors, these reports reveal how reliably a company collects and pays money, affecting cash flow, liquidity and the risk of missed or delayed payments—think of it as a detailed, batched bank statement that helps track and reconcile everyday electronic bill payments.
