Check Imaging

Checking is streamlined with Check Imaging. You receive everything you need for proper record-keeping without the hassle and expense of cancelled checks.

Banking Convenience

Receive your regular statement plus crisp laser images printed to fit on 8 1/2" x 11" sheets Instead of the old bulky envelope full of cancelled checks.

Laser Printing

Your image statement is easy to read.

Easier Checkbook Reconciling

Your check images are provided in numeric order, eliminating the need to sort checks before balancing your checkbook.

Storage Convenience

Reduce storage space requirements. Keep your statements well organized and at your fingertips in a three-ring binder.

Time Saving Research

Brotherhood Bank & Trust keeps permanent records of your statement and check information. When you need a full-sized copy of a statement or the front and back of a check, we can provide it much faster with this advanced system.

IRS/Court Approved

The Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Court System both accept this new technology as official proof of payment.

* Based on 91-day Treasury Bill or .75 basis points, whichever is higher.
