Discover a better way to help manage your accounts receivable.

M&T Bank's Lockbox Service is an efficient way to collect payments mailed to you. M&T picks up mail directly from the post office throughout the day, deposits the checks into your account, and provides you with deposit information over through Treasury Center, so you can update your records.

  • Save time. Less time preparing checks for deposit means more time to spend on what's important
  • Get faster access to your money. Customer payments can be deposited as much as three days earlier in some cases
  • Get insight into your business. Lockbox can modernize your accounts receivable systems, providing daily detailed reporting, increased research ability, and easy access to archived payments
  • Enjoy peace of mind. Since customer payments bypass internal processing and come directly to M&T, Lockbox is a cost-effective way to reduce the risk of internal fraud loss
  • Enhanced customer service and accounts receivable posting. With our Imaging feature, images of remittance checks and documents are available as soon as 30 minutes after processing, and you can access images via Treasury Center, CD or direct transmission

Decisioning, as it is called, is an optional add-on feature that allows you to process your exception items easily and efficiently and search for items by date, amount, batch or invoice number. Images of exception items are posted online to Image Lockbox where you can review them 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

You can enter missing information and choose to accept or reject exception items. Accepted items will be processed the same business day. Images can be viewed as soon as 30 minutes after deposit processing and are available for 90 days. We also offer expanded storage options for up to seven years.
