Remote Deposit Capture

Starting February 9, the TowneBank Remote Deposit Capture system will be the only remote deposit option for your business checks. Beginning January 5, we will begin sending email invitations to all Old Point Remote Deposit customers inviting you to set up an appointment with our partners at Benchmark. Your email will include a customized code that you will need when scheduling your online appointment.

Please note that if you do NOT install the TowneBank software by February 9, you will need to visit a local TowneBank office to deposit checks on or after that date until your new software and hardware setup is complete.
