Next: Enable Paper Check Payments

AgentSnap remits the net premium payments you owe to carriers via a paper check by default, so you'll need to configure how your checks will appear from the AgentSnap dashboard.

Completing Paper Check Setup also gives your insureds the option to cash out refunds or direct payments you send via the paper check payment method.

Follow these steps:

Navigate to the Banks page
Either add a new bank account 🏦 -or- select one you've previously added that you want your paper check transactions to come out of (typically your loss account)

📘
If you want to use this account to send checks it has to be a checking account. US regulations prevent checks from being written from savings accounts
Click the triple dots icon for your bank of choice → Paper Check setup

Fill in the requested information
Wait until the confirmation status is ACTIVATED for this bank account (typically takes 1 business day or less)
Do a happy dance 💃🏽! Once your bank is confirmed with an ACTIVATED status you can freely set which shipping speeds your insureds will be able to select from when they choose to cash-out a claim payment from you via a paper check

You're all set! If you have questions, just let us know. ✅
