Positive Pay & Payee Positive Pay allows your business to upload your check issuances and any check that clears the day prior will be presented as an exception through Sierra Cash Management.
ACH Positive Pay: Fraud prevention service that allows our business clients to manage and review ACH debit transactions that posted to the account the prior day. This service allows businesses to identify potentially fraudulent transactions and decide whether to return or pay items after they have posted the following day.
For ACH Positive Pay to work, business customers must first indicate which ACH debit transactions should be allowed to be paid on their account. Then, our system uses these rules, customized by the account holder, to determine which of the prior day’s ACH transactions will be presented within Sierra Cash Management as exceptions the next business day.
