Unlike banks or other lockbox companies, we process every piece of mail. There is virtually no exception we can’t handle. We accept a variety of documents and expertly manage exceptions and cash.
Our solutions go beyond paper-based processing. We provide support for electronic contributions by credit card, online payment service, e-check or mobile text message on a scheduled, recurring or one-time basis, allowing you to accept donations in virtually any format – no matter the method that your constituents prefer.
Additionally, we offer remote deposit capture machines for your donations processing needs. Whether processing from an event or local office, save on mailing costs and improve your funds availability. The solution offers multiple scanner options and an intuitive software application for ease and flexibility of implementation, and allows you to accept donations in paper or electronic form from nearly any location.
