Clover Check Acceptance Information
Who is Clover Check Acceptance®?
Clover Check Acceptance provides industry-leading check acceptance, check processing and risk analytics services to thousands of retailers and financial institutions. For nearly 40 years, Clover Check Acceptance has safeguarded businesses and financial institutions from check-related losses and fraud. Accepting checks has never been riskier; with Clover Check Acceptance, however, retailers are still able to offer check acceptance to consumers as a safe and secure payment option for purchases in stores, online, and over the phone.
What is the Clover Check Acceptance ECA® service?
The Clover Check Acceptance ECA Warranty service is a comprehensive solution for check acceptance, incorporating authorization, settlement and collections. With this solution, paper checks are converted into an electronic transaction at the point-of-sale. The Automated Clearing House (ACH) network is used to process the transaction and fund the account, generally within two business days. With the Warranty service, returned check processing and collections can be managed by Clover Check Acceptance, saving you time and money. With Clover Check Acceptance’s ECA Warranty solution, you can effectively reduce the risk of accepting paper checks, decrease bank fees, lower operating expenses and improve cash flow through faster funding.
Paper Check Acceptance Solution
Reduce the risk of accepting fraudulent checks with Clover Check Acceptance’s verification solution:
- Utilize a risk scoring system to reject high-risk checks on the spot and minimize the expense and hassle of attempting to collect on them later
- Clover Check Acceptance’s paper check acceptance solutions use check writer’s negative and activity databases with other proprietary risk management tools to determine the risk of accepting a check
- Receive reimbursement for checks approved by Clover Check Acceptance that are later returned with Clover Check Acceptance’s warranty service
Why are businesses using the Clover Check Acceptance ECA service?
Clover Check Acceptance provides the Clover Check Acceptance Electronic Check Acceptance service so that businesses have the opportunity for increased efficiency, reduced risk and higher productivity, all of which eventually benefit you—the consumer.
Is this process regulated by any government agency?
This electronic process is governed under Regulation E, which governs all electronic processing, such as ATM and credit card transactions. In case of an error or dispute, check writers have 60 days from the posting date to notify the bank, the same time frame they have today with paper checks.
