Technology is ever-changing in the banking industry. Today, business owners can pay bills online, generate ACH files to pay their employees, and deposit checks while miles away from their nearest banking location. Remote deposit services are becoming a standard for many businesses.
Whether a business is taking pictures of a check via a mobile device or scanning a stack of checks through a physical remote scanner, remote deposit services is a convenient means to allow your money to work for you sooner.
Financial institutions may offer remote deposit scanners for sale or for lease. The sales price of a purchased scanner range significantly. The average scanner lease is between $30-$80/month.
Mobile remote deposit services are convenient for agencies depositing a low volume of checks in a given day. Remote Deposit Scanners allow up to 100 checks to be deposited with any one scan. Funds scanned by the imposed financial institution cut-off time are considered deposited "same day".
