Navigating Financial Success with Hyphen Wallet from a Supplier’s Perspective

In the fast-paced world of business transactions, the journey often encounters unexpected challenges. Meet Mike Rubin, Controller with Southwestern Interiors and a valued customer of Hyphen Wallet. Mike graciously shares his success story, highlighting the platform’s pivotal role in overcoming check fraud and streamlining payments.

Unveiling the Challenge

Question: Can you describe your experience with Hyphen Solutions in identifying and helping with check fraud?

Mike’s Response: “Absolutely. We were following up with a builder on some unpaid invoices and the builder provided check numbers to the unpaid invoices. Once we determined that we did not receive the checks, the builder referred us to a payment specialist at Hyphen Solutions. Fortunately, with Hyphen’s help, I was able to stop payment and reissue.

A Familiar Foe: Check Fraud

Question: Have you dealt with check fraud before, and if so, how did the Hyphen experience differ?

Mike’s Insight: “Yes, unfortunately we have dealt with check fraud. In this instance, we received a $36,000 check from a builder which had been intercepted and presented for payment. Our Hyphen Specialist suggested we switch from paper checks to ACH direct deposit and as a result, we were able to get the payment reissued by ACH. We have dealt with check fraud before and the process is different with each builder and bank, it’s nice to have one person to deal with at Hyphen.”
