Empire State Bank has launched DepositNow!, a remote-deposit service designed for business customers.
The service provides small businesses and professional practices with a cash-management tool to speed the conversion of paper checks to immediate bank deposits from their offices. Businesses can scan and electronically transmit digital images of their check deposits, which are then posted directly to their checking accounts.
DepositNow! eliminates the need for business customers to spend time bringing their checks to a bank branch for deposit.
“With the many demands and time pressures, we believe it is important for us to find ways to help our business clients save time by enhancing their banking experience ”“ that”™s why we”™ve introduced DepositNow!, our new remote deposit service,” said Phil Guarnieri, Empire”™s president and chief operating officer.
The service is available to all Empire State Bank business checking customers. It is provided free of charge to qualified customers. Once enrolled, customers are provided with a complimentary check scanner that can be used along with any ordinary laptop or desktop personal computer to send electronic images of their checks to Empire for deposit any time of day, seven days a week. In addition to simultaneously capturing electronic images of both sides of a scanned check, DepositNow! customers can also use its software interface automatically to balance their books by matching their clients”™ check payments with their associated invoices.
Empire State Bank, founded in 2004, is headquartered in the town of Newburgh and has a branch in New Paltz. Additional branches are on Long Island.
