Section 3: Fraud ServicesKey offers one of the most comprehensive and elite Positive Pay services available, includingSame Day Positive Pay, Payee Positive Pay, and Teller Payee Positive Pay. These servicesstrengthen your audit controls by comparing items presented for payment against the checkdetails provided in your issue file. Any checks that do not match are presented to you for reviewand payment disposition (pay/no-pay decisions). Key is one of the only financial institutions tooffer Payee Positive Pay review through the Internet, through the Teller line, and on your ARPreports. Key was also the first bank to offer comprehensive eCheck (checks converted toelectronic/ACH transactions) reporting and the only bank to include Payee names on the report.

As part of Key’s Positive Pay services, you will benefit from fraud detection at our KeyCenter(branch) teller line with Teller Positive Pay and Teller Payee, reducing check fraud at all points ofcheck presentment. Our systems allow Key to verify that a check presented over-the-counter at ourbranches conforms to the Issue File listings provided by our clients. If an item is presented to theteller that is not on the client’s Issue File, the check will not be negotiated by the teller and theindividual presenting the item will be referred to the maker of the check.

3.1: Best Practices for Positive Pay Clients

1. Exception items are items that do not match your issue file. Items may be reported asexceptions if we detect a difference between the information contained in your issue file andthe information on the presented check. For example, if the amount reported on your issuefile differs from the amount of the check that was presented for payment that item will bereported for you to review.

NOTE: Items are reported according to how they are recognized by Key’s software. Althoughthe recognition software generally accurately detects and reports the information from the paperchecks, if any unusual information is reported, Key recommends that clients view an image ofthe item to assist with pay/stop/return decisions.

2. Clients can choose either a “pay all” or “return all” default for positive pay items. Regardlessof the default chosen, positive pay exception items are intended to be reviewed every day.

3.2: Same Day Positive Pay

Same Day Positive Pay works in conjunction with Controlled Disbursement Services.Controlled Disbursement accounts allow clients to have Same Day Positive Pay servicesbecause deferred posting provides an extra day of decisioning time. Same Day Positive Payservices compare your issue file of checks to the items presented for payment. Anydiscrepancies are reported on the same day report, along with additional details, the reason theitem was flagged for review, and a link to view an image of the item (eCheck images are notavailable). Items are ready for review at various times depending on the location of the accountaccording to the following table. All pay or stop decisions must be made by 6:00 p.m. ET (5:00CT, 4:00 MT, 3:00 PT) the same business day, regardless of where the account is located.Same Day Positive Pay exception items will post to your account unless the payment is stoppedor if your default decision is “stop.”
