Mobile Check Capture and Deposit
CPI is committed to changing the value proposition of mobile deposit capture (MDC). Whether a bank or financial service company, a comprehensive suite of MDC products and services have been specifically developed to simplify entry, contain costs and consolidate the various components necessary for full cycle MDC. As providers merge traditional bank deposit and instant non-recourse funds availability, the functionality of MDC transaction as well as the settlement and returns management present challenges that few anticipated. These challenges have been the subject of much debate and early adopters are already recognizing a lack of transaction types and settlement services necessary to effectively manage the process.
By developing the MDC delayed and instant deposit functions to settle through CPI’s integrated check 21 settlement platform. Simply stated, our mobile menu of transactions merges instant non-recourse, delayed and pre-approval MDC functions and consolidates settlement of those transactions on a single settlement platform and already integrated into CHEXAR® Network’s check guarantee program.
