A system and a method are disclosed for using an electronic mail (e-mail) interface to initiate and configure an electronic fund transfer. A fund transfer module is operatively interfaced with an e-mail module, allowing the fund transfer module and e-mail module to communicate data between each other. Responsive to the e-mail module receiving a generation input, data describing a fund transfer is received. The generation input can be s a user request or a receive e-mail including a request for payment. A representation of the fund transfer is generated from the received data and displayed by the e-mail module. For example, the fund transfer is displayed in a format replicating the appearance of a paper check. Responsive to the e-mail module receiving a user confirmation input that the representation of the fund transfer is accurate, an electronic transfer packet including the data describing the fund transfer is generated. |
