Why Did I Get a Check from AvidXchange When I Usually Receive Electronic Payments?
There are a few reasons AvidXchange might send a check instead of your typical preferred payment method, including Mastercard or AvidPay Direct (enhanced direct deposit):
✅ The Mastercard payment you were issued expired. If you do not run the card promptly, it will expire.
✅ The payment amount did not meet the minimum or maximum requirements set by your company to receive electronically.
✅ We were unable to make an electronic payment due to conflicting information received from individuals representing your company.
✅ Details provided in the initial payment method selection discussion were inaccurate.
✅ Our team or your bank has not processed your new enhanced direct deposit request yet.
✅ You did not correctly complete the DocuSign you received to set up enhanced direct deposit.
AvidXchange never holds your payments. If processing for an electronic payment is delayed for some reason, we will send a check instead.
If AvidXchange is unable to issue Mastercard or enhanced direct deposit payments to your company after multiple attempts, we will change your default payment method to check.
