A method of a paying bank processing a check which has been presented for payment comprises the steps of (a) receiving a check from a presenting bank, (b) verifying the check of step (a) based upon details contained in a check data file which has been previously received from a payor of the check, and (c) verifying the check based upon details contained in a check image file which also has been previously received from the payor of the check when the check is unable to be verified in step (b). The check data file may comprise a positive pay file. Step (c) may include the sub-steps of (c-1) capturing image data from the check, and (c-2) comparing the captured image data of sub-step (c-1) with at least a portion of a previously scanned image of the check stored in the check image file to verify the check. The at least a portion of a previously scanned image of the check may comprise a full image of the check. The check image file may include image data which is representative of full images of checks. The method may further comprise the step of (d) approving payment to the presenting bank only when the check has been verified in either step (b) or step (c).
