These products are capable of completely changing the way back-office operations function.”

BBVA Compass RealTime Positive Pay™ verifies checks and ACH transactions as they are presented for payment, giving customers information about exceptions as they happen. Users can establish alerts to stay informed about account activity. A dashboard within the BBVA Compass net cash™ system provides an at-a-glance view of exceptions and allows customers to make pay or return decisions quickly and easily. The service also gives users up to 34 hours to make these exception decisions -- a much longer window than the industry average of two hours.

BBVA Compass RealTime ARP™ provides an overview of check and electronic transaction activity as it happens in real time and automates the check reconciliation process. A customizable dashboard provides a consolidated view of items as they post to accounts. Reporting features allow users to create detailed reports using both the BBVA Compass net cash online platform and mobile app.
