The application has been released and is now available on App Store for free. USAA customers can now take a snapshot of both sides of a check and transfer the images to the bank via iPhone. The initial response to this feature is amazing. Many iPhone users have rated this app with five stars and find the check deposit feature extremely useful:
Great app! I love making my deposit by taking a picture of my check! You are way ahead of customer expectations.
Unbelievable to think we can now deposit checks using your iPhone camera!!!
I never write reviews, but this deserved it. The check deposit feature is awesome.
A spokesman of USAA mentioned that the iPhone app has been downloaded nearly 150,000 times, and more than 58,000 users have already elected to use it. And in just three days after the debut of the iPhone app, $1.5 million in checks have already been deposited via the app. I am really amazed the adoption rate.
To learn more about how the app works for check deposit, check out the demo video from USAA:Some users are worried about fraud and asked USAA what preventive measure they have implemented to tackle fraud. Here is the answer from USAA blog:
Because USAA is commited to preventing and mitigating fraud, only members who meet the established criteria may use our Deposit@Home and Deposit@Mobile services. Additionally, abuse of this service such as falsifying a check or re-presenting a check whether to USAA or any other financial institution is a federal offense.
