Positive Pay is an automated fraud prevention service offered by banks to their business clients. It's primarily designed to protect companies from check fraud.
Here's how it typically works:
Issue File Submission: A business creates and sends a file to their bank listing all the checks they've legitimately issued. This file includes details like the check number, date, payee, and amount.
Verification: When a check is presented for payment against the company's account, the bank compares the check's information against the information in the issue file.
Exception Items: If the check information doesn't match the issue file (e.g., the check number, amount, or payee is different), it's flagged as an "exception item".
Pay/Return Decision: The bank presents the exception item to the business for a "pay or return" decision. The business reviews the suspect check image (often online) and instructs the bank whether to pay the check (if it's legitimate but wasn't included in the original file) or return it unpaid (if it's fraudulent).
