This service protects your accounts from check fraud.  With Positive Pay, you can upload a file containing the checks you would like to process. When those items clear from the Federal Reserve, you have the opportunity to review anything that doesn’t match the information you uploaded. You will receive an immediate exception for you to review.  If the item is legitimate, you can pay it or have it returned.

Our ACH Filter helps protect your electronic banking accounts from fraud. This service will alert you if anything suspicious is attempting to withdraw funds from the accounts electronically.  You have the opportunity to review the alert and choose to pay or return it on the spot.

Remote Deposit Capture uses a small desktop scanner that connects to your PC and the Internet. With it, you can scan the checks you receive from your customers and make deposits electronically.

Through Partners Bank Insured Sweep system, customers can access multi-million dollar FDIC insurance on funds placed into checking accounts using the ICS®, or Insured Cash Sweep service.

How it works: Partners Bank is a member of the IntraFi Network (formerly Promontory Interfinancial Network), allowing us to place funds into Checking (DDA) accounts at other member banks, in increments less than the FDIC insurance maximum, so that both principal and interest are eligible for FDIC protection.

Benefits:

• Peace of Mind – Your funds are placed in member banks by the FDIC and backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
• Earn Interest – Put excess cash balances to work in a fully-insured demand deposit account.
• Liquidity – Withdraw ICS® funds unlimited times per month from Checking (DDA) accounts. Plus, make an unlimited number of program deposits.*
• Save time – While your funds will be placed through many banks, you only work directly with Partners Bank. You will receive one easy-to-read statement summarizing all of your holdings.
  Support our Community – Your deposits that stay at Partners Bank are loaned back to the community, driving business growth to help our local economy.

*Placement of your funds through the ICS® service is subject to terms, conditions and disclosures set forth in the agreements you enter into with us, including the ICS® Deposit Placement Agreement. Limits and customer placement eligibility criteria apply. Program withdrawals from Money Market accounts are limited to six per month.
