Express Funds will allow businesses to electronically deposit checks into bank accounts without physically transporting them to the bank. With the implementation of the new system, funds are available within 24 hours and, in many cases, by the next business morning.

Express Funds can integrate into many accounting systems, including QuickBooks, Great Plains, Peachtree and Accpac.

Bob Carr, Heartland’s chairman and CEO, said: Heartland Express Funds offers businesses an effective solution for handling check payments that also saves time and money. As with all of Heartland’s product offerings, we guarantee the same transparent pricing, secure transactions and dedicated customer support that is a cornerstone of our credit/debit/prepaid card processing and payroll transactions.
