According to a recent study by research advisory firm Aberdeen Group , companies that rely on paper checks spend more than $11 on average per payment.   Companies that rely on electronic payments such as echecks spend 38% less per payment.  Clearly, electronic checks (echecks) save companies money.

But in these days of environmental awareness, going green with echecks can be beneficial to companies as well.  From a public relations point of few, very few issues have the positive impact as an announcement of reduction of carbon footprints and corporate green initiatives.

According to NACHA’s PayItGreen Alliance , a corporation initiating 120,000 paper payments per year could save the following annual resources by converting just 50% of those payments to electronic:

• More than 2,208 pounds of paper.
• More than 27,000 gallons of gasoline.
• Approximately 264 tons of emitted greenhouse gases.

Other benefits of electronic payments and invoices include:

• Improved cash management.
• Lower transaction costs.
• Greater visibility and control.
• More efficient processes.
• Enhanced service to suppliers and employees.
• Reduced exposure to risk.
