PROTECT YOUR BUSINESS FROM CHECK FRAUD 

A counterfeit or altered check could sink your business, but it doesn’t have to. Positive Pay from Ameris Bank can catch these transactions before they post to your account, protecting your business automatically. 

When someone presents one of your business checks for payment, Ameris Bank compares it to a file you send us detailing all outgoing checks. We flag suspicious checks and bring them to your attention for approval. 

You need a bank you can trust. Ameris Bank addresses your concerns through personal care and timely communication with a dedicated treasury management services team devoted to keeping your business protected.
