Accept ACH and Credit Card Payments for Insurance Premiums with Ease
Mitigate Risk of Unauthorized Payments with Solutions from iCheckGateway.com
To remain competitive, insurance providers need to be able to accept payments for insurance premiums for auto, home, medical, and beyond electronically. While credit cards and direct transfer (ACH) are the preferred payment methods for most consumers, processing fees and funds delays can be costly. Fortunately, the ability to accept multiple payment forms through a variety of channels can mitigate these costs.
Insurance providers need to be able to originate transactions immediately when processing regular payments for premiums. A platform that enables providers to minimize the risk of unauthorized, returned, and insufficient payments utilizing check verification at the front end of the transaction, rather than waiting for a notification helps insurance providers avoid fees for returned check payments—while accessing ACH returns or notifications of change easily and automatically. There’s also no delay in receiving your funds or starting collection services for returned payments.
