    • Check fraud:
      • With Positive Pay you protect your account by keeping daily control of which checks are paid.
      • With Reverse Positive Pay the banking institution presents a list of checks that are drawn on your account so you can authorize them.
    • Electronic transactions:
      • Using Electronic Payment Authorization (EPA) you protect your business account against any fraudulent or unauthorized ACH electronic debit transactions.
  • Positive Pay is a service that provides a solution to avoid check fraud. Every day, Banco Popular will compare checks issued by the client against payable checks that were received by the Bank. The Bank will not pay any check that is not on the list of issued checks, unless authorized by the client. This service helps prevent instances of check fraud and allows you to have a daily control of which checks are paid.
