Why is SPAREs "zero tolerance" policy so strict?

Trust. We have worked hard to build our network of users and small businesses. We have seen many different forms of fraud that degrade the integrity of our network. In addition, we are a small company and if we were held responsible (as a company) for every transaction that ended in fraud in our network - we would not have a company after a very short period of time. 

Why does my check take so long to clear?

Your first check will not clear until we have received the funds from your bank, which is typically 24-72 hours after submission. It is not until you have processed your 4th check (and the previous 3 have cleared without issue) that you may be eligible for instant access on check deposits.
