Frequently asked questions

Who founded Digital Check Corp.?

Digital Check was founded in 1959 by Tom Anderson, Sr., who originally worked as a paper broker. He saw an opportunity to store and organize microfilm differently, which grew into the company's current product line.

What products does Digital Check manufacture?

Digital Check produces desktop check scanners for remote deposit capture and teller capture — the TellerScan, CheXpress, and SmartSource families. Through its subsidiaries, it also makes digital microfilm readers (ST Imaging), high-speed microfilm conversion scanners (nextScan), and cash automation software (Avivatech).

Where are Digital Check scanners manufactured?

The company designs, engineers, assembles, and tests its check scanners in the United States. Digital Check states the majority of each scanner is assembled domestically, and every unit is 100% tested before shipment.

Does Digital Check serve only US customers?

No. While headquartered in Northbrook, Illinois, Digital Check describes itself as a global company. Its products are used in teller capture and remote deposit environments both in North America and Europe, and likely other geographies.

How is Digital Check related to ST Imaging, nextScan, and Avivatech?

ST Imaging and nextScan are wholly owned subsidiaries of Digital Check, comprising the Digital Check Idaho division. Avivatech, founded in 2021, combines software teams from Digital Check and Benchmark Technology Group. Each subsidiary operates as a standalone business under the parent company.

Does Digital Check offer software for cash management?

Yes. Avivatech, formed in 2021, provides cash automation technology and check processing software. It includes tools for cash recyclers and check imaging, combining heritage from Digital Check's and Benchmark Technology Group's software divisions.

How many scanners has Digital Check produced?

A 2023 blog post on the company's website stated Digital Check had produced 1.5 million scanners up to that point. The blog also notes that production volumes have grown from the 1980s onward.
