Alliance Formed to
Convert Checks to E-Payments
Creditron Corporation, a Toronto-based company, and
Ventanex, Ltd. of San Antonio, TX, announced that they
have formed a strategic alliance for the electronic
conversion of check payments. The Creditron/Ventanex
solution automates the posting of payments, provides
faster availability of funds, and facilitates more
efficient handling of returned checks.
Under new
U.S. banking regulations which came into effect March 15,
2002, the Check Truncation Act, personal checks received
through the mail or over-the-counter can be scanned to
capture the check image and data. An electronic file can
then be presented for electronic clearing though the ACH
(Automated Clearing House) network. The original check is
then destroyed and the image is retained as an electronic
record of the transaction. Creditron's President, Wally
Vogel commented, "The real strength of this new solution
is that it replaces the paper check clearing process with
a much more efficient electronic process, but doesn't
require the typical consumer to change their behavior -
they can keep writing checks as they always have."
Creditron provides software solutions in processing all
types of payments including checks, money orders, credit
card payments and electronic payments. Creditron is an
authorized reseller of NCR payment processing hardware and
is a Microsoft Certified Partner.
Ventanex, Ltd., with high performance tools, takes
time-consuming paper processes and turns them into a
seamless stream of electronic data by integrating a
company's back-end accounting systems with their suppliers
and customers.
