Lockbox Services
Accept Pain-free Payments
Enhance your cash flow by outsourcing your accounts receivables for simplified handling of customer payments. The faster your customer payments get processed, the faster your business gets paid!
Lockbox Services from First National Bank of Michigan offer a convenient way to improve the efficiency of collecting and posting receivables.
How Lockbox Services Work
With Lockbox Services, all remittance mail is directed to a special address. In a traditional check payment processing scenario, a lot of labor and time is involved for your business. You have to collect check payments, open envelopes, sort and endorse checks, prepare deposit slips, take deposits to the bank, and, finally, update your accounts receivable software.
Outsource those pains with Lockbox Services from FNBM.
