Troubleshooting Tips
Steps to capture the check images:
- After entering the dollar amount of the check, tape “Capture Check Front” to enable the camera.
- After successfully capturing the front of the image, wait for “Capture Check Back: to appear, and then tap it to enable the camera.
- If the camera does not focus properly on the image, close the camera window and click “Capture Check Front” or “Capture Check Back” to enable the camera again.
The check image is not accepted:
- Ensure the number printed on the bottom of the check (MICR) line are clear and readable.
- Check for any stray writing or other markings in the MICR line that could prevent eDeposit from clearly reading the numbers.
- Ensure that the MICR line was not cropped out of the picture, which would prevent eDeposit from clearly reading the numbers.
- Use a dark background, clear of shadows, to take the picture of the check.
