If you currently use Positive Pay services through Veritex Bank online banking, you will be set up on Huntington Business Online to review and decision Check Positive Pay exceptions.

Additional security levels available with Check Positive Pay include:

Dual Authorization: This is an optional control that segregates the decision and approval processes, thereby effectively minimizing the risk of both internal fraud and human keying errors.

Teller Positive Pay: This service is automatically included with Check Positive Pay. Utilizing the information from your check issue file, Huntington Bank will match checks presented at the Huntington Bank teller line in real time to ensure that the check number, check amount, and payee name (if utilized) are correct.

  • If these items do not match, the teller system will reject the requested transaction for the reason “No match to POS PAY File, Refer to Maker.”
  • If they do match, the check will be cashed as requested.

Payee Positive Pay (also known as payee verification, payee match or payee validation): This service matches the name provided on the check issue file with the name that appears on the actual check, thereby increasing the level of security.

Maximum Dollar Feature: This feature allows you to set maximum dollar limitations on your account (i.e., do not pay any checks exceeding $10,000). If an item is received that is in excess of the defined Maximum Dollar Amount, that item will be presented as an exception requiring a pay/return decision.

Stale Date Feature: This feature allows you to set stale date limitations on your account (i.e., do not pay any checks after 180 days). If an item is received that is stale, that item will be presented as an exception requiring a pay/return decision.
