Check Imaging for Contributions and Receivables

Automate accounting data entry using a check imager that scans the front and back of each check and stores the images on your computer, prints your deposit endorsement on the back of the check, and prints notice on check front you have processed the check. When data entry is complete, the system sends the deposit to your bank electronically - all in one step.

RDS Advantage uses the banking industry standard for Remote Deposit Capture to send your deposits to your bank. If your bank does not yet support Remote Deposit Capture, you can still deposit remotely using a national service recommended by RDS Advantage.
