How Electronic Re-Presentment Works

The business signs a bank release form notifying their bank to mail all returned checks to ACBS’s local processing center.

A sign is posted at the point of sale notifying customers that their bank accounts will be debited for the amount of the check as well as a collection fee.

This fee is set by State Law and is typically $25.00.
When checks are received at the ACBS processing center, they are converted to an electronic transaction. That same day they are transmitted to the National Automated Clearinghouse (NACHA) network for next-day debiting of the customer’s bank account.

If the check is rejected on the first re-presentment, the customer’s bank account is monitored for available funds. The minute funds are available the check is processed immediately.
