ARC (Accounts Receivable Entry)
― Single-entry debit initiated by an originator for the conversion of a consumer check, which is received via the U.S. mail or placed in a dropbox for the payment of goods or services. The consumer’s check, known as the source document, is used to collect the routing number, account number, check serial number, and dollar amount of the transaction.
BOC (Back Office Conversion)
― Effective March 16, 2007, BOC enables the conversion of checks received at the point of sale from a location other than the point of purchase
Check 21
― The Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act, was signed into law on 10/28/2003, and took effect on October 28,2004. The purpose of the Act was to: Facilitate check truncation, foster innovation in the check payment system, and improve the payment system overall
Image Cash Letter
― Presentment of a ANSI x9.37 formatted electronic cash letter
Image Exchange
― The process where banks use images of checks for clearing and require no movement of physical items
Image Replacement Document (IRD or Substitute Check)
― A paper reproduction of the original check that meets Check 21 rules

Changing Payments Landscape
Although electronic payments have made in-roads in bill payment, it remains checks’ last stronghold.
Consumers are expected to write checks for 35% of their recurring bill payments by 2010.
By 2010 we expect automatic and on-line bill payments to account for 42% of consumer bill payments.

• Check conversion transforms a check to electronic settlement
• Check truncation transforms a check to an image-enabled electronic transaction for settlement

The Changing Payments Landscape

Drivers of Change The continuous decline of check volumes
The number of checks written will decline from 40 billion items in 2003 to approximately 30 billion items in 2010 representing a decline of approximately 3 -5% per annum.
Paper check processing costs are also increasing and are twice that of electronic payments
New ACH regulations have made electronic payments even more utilizable
More than 50% of all checks may now be converted; regulations already enacted enable conversion of consumer check payments, including remittances and point-of-sale payments

Check 21
On October 28, 2004, the Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act, more commonly known as Check 21, became law
Check 21 creates the legal equivalence of the original check and a substitute check.
Substitute checks are likely to be transitory given the more favorable economics associated with image exchange.
Image Exchange
The process where banks use images of checks for clearing and require no movement of physical items (either original or substitute checks).
Image exchange will emerge as another method for processing checks in the end state, and ACH conversion will coexist as an attractive alternative.
Drivers of Change: Check Transactions

Billions
Large banks are taking action to adopt image technology to capture financial benefits. The number of image-enabled banks will grow over time as more large banks implement image and more small/midsized banks decide to outsource.
Image replacement documents diminish over time as financial institutions move to image exchange.
Fewer than 20% of checks will be cleared through conventional paper processing by the end of 2012 (down from approximately 80% today).

The Future of Check Clearing
2010
ACH
ARC volume will continue to increase along with image exchange growth. As the numbers of checks written declines, ARC volumes may flatten out. ARC continues to be an attractive alternative to Check 21 clearing.Back-office conversion (BOC) is introduced and emerges as an attractive alternative to Check 21 clearing, as Point of Purchase (POP) volumes continue to grow
