While saving money and reducing labor costs are great reasons to consider Orchid’s EFT Processing module, below are a few more reasons to choose this module to automate and streamline your cash payment processing and/or customer receipts.

1. Safeguard your cash transactions (by eliminating the risk of check fraud).
2. Avoid postage costs and delays.
3. Easily make electronic payments by choosing from over 500 bank file formats of financial institutions around the world.
4. Improve customer and vendor relationships because they know when to expect transactions to be automatically deposited or withdrawn from your account.
5. Encrypt your customer and vendor bank details.
6. Create EFT files which clear through ACH, standard EFT, and other cash management formats so you can streamline cash payment and cash receipt processing.
7. Utilize email as a notification method so that you can send out your email payment remittances and direct debit notices via an SMTP to your appropriate contact (vendor or customer).
8. Configure your system to track through audit trails – Every time an audit trail is created a unique EFT # will be assigned to that transaction. Additionally, a date and time stamp for when the file is created, the number of transactions within the file, and where the file is stored along with a dollar value of transactions in the file will also be logged.
9. Get additional file formats (generated by Orchid) to meet your needs at no additional charge, just send Orchid a copy of your bank specifications for EFT processing.*
