NCR, a leader in omnichannel solutions and Advanced Fraud Solutions, a leader in fraud prevention services, announced that they have partnered to integrate AFS TrueChecks® into NCR’s Interactive Teller Machine platform.
Interactive Teller Machines enable financial institutions to offer access to teller services during non-traditional banking hours. They also build new small-footprint branches and provide full teller services in areas not served by branches. Users can take advantage of the advanced features of NCR ATMs. These include intelligent deposit, bill pay and new account and loan initiation.
TrueChecks® is a web-based solution. It provides tellers with recommended actions based on the fraudulent history of the check or account.
Our teaming with NCR enhances the ability of its financial institution clients to authenticate ITM transactions quicker and more accurately. The partnership offers an unparalleled combination of external risk mitigation data in real time, without sacrificing the convenience customers get with remote deposit capture.

TrueChecks platform strengthens fraud prevention for interactive teller machines
The uniqueness of TrueChecks® is the collaborative approach to fighting fraud. Financial institutions, processors, and other industry sources contribute their counterfeit, NSF, and Closed Account information to a shared database. This database protects financial institutions from repeat offenders within their organization. It also shields financial institutions from external risks from other FIs both locally and across the US.
As financial institutions increasingly turn to interactive teller machines to strategically grow their business, this new deposit avenue demands a new approach to fraud prevention. By integrating TrueChecks® directly into the ITM platform, AFS and NCR can deliver just that. TrueChecks provides remote tellers with instantaneous feedback on check deposits made through the ITM.
NCR, AFS collaboration bolsters remote deposit capture
“It’s been a banner year for Interactive Teller. We’ve seen our financial institution customers take a big step forward in the adoption of new branch technology,” said Andrew Short, General Manager, Branch Banking, NCR Corporation. “We’re excited to work with AFS to make this transition even more seamless, offering automated TrueChecks check fraud prevention at this new point of deposit.”
