How do you pay with an electronic check?

There are two main ways to pay with an electronic check: Either by filling out an online payment form or completing an automated online process. Both of these options are typically secure payment methods.

How do I send an electronic check?

Typically, you would either fill out an online payment form with your banking information and the payment amount or complete an online process and input your payment information and bank account information. In both cases, you, the payer, needs to authorize the payee to process the payment.

Can you get scammed with e-checks?

E-checks are usually viewed as a safer payment option than a paper check. The process involves fewer gaps in which fraud can occur. Also, there isn’t the opportunity for an electronic check to become lost or stolen, the way a paper one might. There are also additional security measures in place to help prevent digital fraud with e-checks.
