Check Verification

Stop returned checks before they happen and ArJay Data solutions help you by verifying against a database of known bad check writers, such as SCAN^SM or RMRS^SM. In fact, up to 75% of returned checks can be prevented with check verification. ArJay Data offers CheckAGAIN which provides businesses with access to the nation's most powerful negative check databases, including SCAN (Shared Check Authorization Network^SM) and NCN (National Check Network)®. For more than 20 years SCAN^SM has been collecting information on bad check writers from over 77,000 retail locations. SCAN's shared network not only lets merchants know if a customer has bounced checks any SCAN^SM location. In addition, when used in conjunction with the CheckAGAIN's Electronic Representment service, CheckAGAIN contributes your known bad checks to these databases, further reducing your exposure to loss and fraud.

CheckAGAIN also provides electronic check re-presentment services for SCAN^SM customers. Customers can opt for CheckAGAIN to automatically attempt collection on NSF checks through the banking industry's electronic ACH network at no cost. The merchant always receives 100% of the value of the check upon collection.

How Does SCAN^SM Work?

When you join the SCAN^SM network, you have access to the largest database of known bad check writers in existence - over 13 million current unique records from over 71,000 locations across the country. So you can cut your bad check losses by up to 80%.

SCAN^SM vs. Guarantee Services.

Why spend 2% or more per check on a guarantee service when you can screen out 80% of all bad check writers up front for pennies per transaction? Guarantee services will tell you that you're paying a flat rate for check bounces, but the reality is a different story altogether.

Collection and Recovery Options.

Because SCAN^SM cannot catch every bad check writer, we offer no-cost collection options for our customers, including sophisticated electronic re-presentment through CheckAGAIN. CheckAGAIN returns 100% of your principal when checks are successfully re-presented.

Will SCAN^SM Work with My Existing Equipment?

The SCAN^SM system will work with many popular credit card processing terminals and electronic cash registers (ECRs) to provide you a quick verification in as little as 8 to 10 seconds.
