Cash Manager is a suite of tools that takes idle cash and puts
it to work efficiently and profitably. It’s created from an outstanding
line of financial services and delivered through CoLink® – CoBank’s
online delivery channel—so activities are seamless and integrated. Designed with your time and money in mind,
CoBank Cash Manager offers you services that concentrate on settlement,
disbursement, collection and investments. CoBank Cash Manager integrates your transaction processing with the
sources of your funds – whether loan or investment. This unique,
integrated cash management solution fully automates your loan,
investment and transaction needs through CoLink, so activities are
seamless and integrated.
Auto-Settlement
Rule Sets form the core of CoBank’s Cash Manager. With rule sets, you
establish the posting rules and can re-define them at any time.
Transactions automatically settle against your loan and/or your
investment accounts, based on your pre-defined rule sets. This automatic
application of funds keeps you in control and saves you time.
Payment Services
Controlled Disbursement provides same-day notification of final
disbursement totals early each day. By 9:00 a.m. Mountain Time, you will
know the total amount to clear that day, which enhances cash forecasting
and planning. Several companion products are available.
- Check Image organizes and stores canceled checks digitally. As
the bank processes your checks, the system converts each item into a
digital image. When you receive the monthly statement, instead of
getting the original checks, you will get an exact image of the
front and back of each item on an easy-to-store CD-ROM. Multiple
search options make it easy to locate specific checks.
- Account Reconciliation Plan (ARP) automates the reconciliation
of your bank account statement, providing you more time to manage
your funds and your business.
- Positive Pay service assists you in protecting against check
fraud and provides early warning of check irregularities such as
encoding errors and multiple postings.
- Tiered Accounts can be set-up to correspond to those in your
accounting system or those in different business units.
- Detailed Reporting provides you with the details of the
previous-day’s transactions online through CoLink. This is in
addition to the summary reporting you receive daily via CoLink. As a
result, you can track individual items accurately and make key
business decisions quickly.
- Automated Clearing House (ACH) funds transfer gives you a
reliable, efficient and cost-effective electronic system for sending
and receiving payments. We offer several popular ACH applications.
- Payroll Direct Deposit service effectively and efficiently
deposits your employees’ pay on time, no matter where they bank.
- Direct Credit/Debit service automatically provides direct
credits/ debits to your suppliers or customers based on the schedule
that you set.
- Tax Payment service allows you to make federal and state tax
payments electronically.
- Commercial Card Services provide the purchasing power of a credit
card with the added benefits of flexible purchasing controls and
detailed reporting. The CoBank Commercial Card allows you to tailor each
card to one or more uses, so there is no need to have a card for travel
and entertainment and a separate fleet card. You also control the credit
limit assigned to each card and can choose the reporting method that
fits your needs.
Collection Management Services
Automatic Cash Concentration Service automatically moves funds
from your depository locations to CoBank — where your funds can work for
you, either paying down a loan or earning interest in an investment.
Funds are moved automatically, based on the dollar threshold that you
set.
Electronic Check Deposit Service utilizes state-of-the-art
image technology to help clear your checks faster — and from the
convenience of your office. This process can translate into collecting
funds faster. In addition, you save time and money by eliminating trips
to the local bank to deposit your checks.
Merchant Services allow you to accept customer payments by
Master-Card®, Visa®, American Express®, Diners Club®, Discover® and
other card providers. Through CoBank’s combined purchasing power, our
pricing is likely to be lower than what you can receive in the
marketplace. Funds are credited directly to your account, arriving
faster than other accounts receivable methods. We’ll even customize
reports to your specifications.
Retail Lockbox Services are ideal for a company that receives
low-dollar/ high-volume payments. With the use of a computer-readable
scan document (remittance stub, coupon or voucher), a retail lockbox can
capture data used to update your accounts receivable system, reduce the
cost of collections and free your staff to handle more important
customer relations.
Wholesale Lockbox Services handle business-to-business
payments. It allows incoming payments to bypass your corporate office
and go directly to the bank. You reduce incoming mail handling,
processing, and collection float — giving you use of your money much
faster.
