Join us as we share best practices, identify common challenges and review the related regulatory and security issues.
The adoption of Check21 standards has made possible not simply the replacement of paper check exchange and settlement with that of electronic images, it has also fostered less expensive technology to create and exchange check images. This webinar will share the innovations that credit unions and our competitors have brought to the market for remote capture and transmission of the images. From small business oriented dedicated terminals, to basic multi-function scanners to Apple and Android smart phones, remote capture devices are transforming standards of service and convenience.
