What is Positive Pay System?
Positive Pay System is a kind of fraud detection tool. Under this system, when anyone issues a check, he will have to give full details to his bank.
In this, the issuer of the check will have to electronically give the date of the check, beneficiary name, account number, total amount and other necessary information to the bank through SMS, internet banking, ATM or mobile banking.
With this system, while the payment by check will be safe, the clearance will also take less time. The physical check issued in this does not have to move from one place to another. It is a very easy and safe process.
