Mail your physical checks to us. We receive, scan, endorse, and deposit them at the bank — usually within 24 hours of arrival — for a flat $5 per check. No monthly minimum.

## What you get

- **We receive your checks** — Mail your checks to our secure processing address — no envelopes to print, no trips to the post office.
- **Scan & verify** — Every check is opened, scanned, and verified against the payee, amount, and signature before it moves on.
- **Deposited to your bank** — We endorse on your behalf and physically deposit at the bank — or mail to your bank if it isn't local.
- **Status updates as it moves** — Your dashboard reflects each step in real time: received, processed, deposited, cleared.
- **Full audit trail** — Every check has a permanent record — scans, timestamps, who handled it, and the deposit confirmation.

## How it works

1. **Send checks to our address** — Mail any checks you receive — or have your customers send them directly — to our secure processing address.
2. **We receive & scan** — Every envelope is opened in our facility, the check is scanned at high resolution, and the data is verified.
3. **Processed within 24 hours** — Every check is opened, scanned, verified, and queued for deposit within 24 hours of arriving at our facility.
4. **Deposited within 24 hours** — If your bank has a branch near our processing facility, your check is hand-deposited within 24 hours of processing. If your bank isn't local, we mail the endorsed check directly to your bank on your behalf — there's a small extra processing fee for postage and handling.
5. **Track every status** — From received through cleared, every state change appears in your dashboard with a full audit trail.
