Check Capture Best Practices

• Hold the camera Parallel to the item. Match check inside the guidelines on the phone. All four corners of the check must be visible
• We recommend that a flash is not used as the glare may diminish the quality of the image.
• Take the picture in a well-lit environment against a dark background consistent while avoiding textures such as wood grain, granite, or carpet. (No shadows)
• If taken against a light background the optics may have trouble reading the edges of the item and therefore may not crop properly.
• The check should lay as flat as possible in order to not warp the image. (no folds)

Once confirmed, the transaction will appear in your account within 1-2 business days. How soon the funds will be available for use depends on the size of the check and how long your account has been open, but it ranges from 1-5 business days.
