What is e-Check?

An e-Check, or electronic check, is a digital version of a traditional paper check used for payments. It allows individuals and businesses to transfer funds electronically from one bank account to another, typically through the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network. E-Checks streamline the payment process, reduce processing costs, and provide faster transaction times compared to paper checks. They are often used for online bill payments, e-commerce transactions, and payroll processing.
