SAVE TIME & MONEY WITH ELECTRONIC CHECK SERVICE
If you're like most merchants, check acceptance is a necessary, but burdensome part of conducting business. Now, thanks to Elavon's Electronic Check Service (ECS), you can continue offering your customers the option of paying by check, while dramatically reducing the risk and cost associated with check acceptance.
ECS converts all paper checks – consumer and business – into safe, efficient electronic transactions. By submitting checks through the same system that you use to authorize credit cards, you can significantly lower costs and enrich your cash flow. Gone are manual check reconciliations, time-consuming trips to the bank, and the hassles of check collections. Best of all, your check transactions are funded with the same speed as your credit card transactions, typically within 24 – 48 hours. To learn more click here.

IMPROVE YOUR BOTTOM LINE WITH DYNAMIC CURRENCY CONVERSION
Elavon’s Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) is the smart alternative to international cardholder transactions made in U.S. dollars and converted later to buyers' home currencies with cardholders paying a conversion fee to the card issuer. With DCC international MasterCard and Visa transactions are converted at the time of the transaction, allowing customers to know exactly what their total purchase is in their home currency.
Each DCC receipt shows the purchase in U.S. dollars, the conversion rate, plus the cardholder's home currency amount. Supported on a variety of terminals and software, there are no start-up costs or monthly fees with DCC. Best of all, Elavon rebates a percentage of the conversion fee back to you on your monthly statement. To learn more click here. To learn more, click here.
