VEROTEL CHECK
US customers that do not have a credit card (or do not want to use one), but who have a checking account can pay by check online in just seconds.
How does it work?
Your customers will fill out their checking account information online (routing number, checking account number and check number). Verotel verifies the check information and supplies your customer with a usercode and passcode to access your website. This usercode and passcode is added in real-time to your website using the Verotel Remote User Manager. Verotel Check is a great alternative payment option, not only for endusers that don't have a credit card, but also for endusers that are hesitant to supply their credit card information over the Internet.
VEROTEL DOUBLE CHECK
US customers that do not have a credit card (or do not want to use one), but who have a checking account can pay by check online in just seconds. With Verotel Double Check, the enduser is asked for additional information such as drivers license number and the state where their drivers license was issued. Although this may result in slightly lower sales, with double check, it's possible to lower the number of reversals significantly.
How does it work?
Your customers will fill out their checking account information (routing number, checking account number and check number) and personal information (drivers license / issue state of drivers license) online.
Verotel double checks the checking account and personal information and supplies your customer with a usercode and passcode to access your website. This usercode and passcode is added to your website using the Verotel Remote User Manager in real-time.
