Abstract:
A system for generating and processing an electronic funding application is disclosed. The system includes a memory storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to transmit the electronic funding application to a client and enter financial data into the funding application. The financial data includes a magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) line, a currency amount, and an account identifier. The instructions further transmit the financial data to a server, validate at least a portion of the financial data by comparing a portion of the financial data to data representing valid demand deposit accounts, convert the MICR line to an item compatible with an automated clearing house (ACH) network, and submit the item and the currency amount to the ACH network. The currency amount is transferred from the demand deposit account of the customer to the financial account of the customer.
