Over the Counter Channel Application (OTCnet)

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) uses the Over the Counter Channel Application (OTCnet) system. OTCnet is a web application that converts personal and business checks into electronic fund transfers or substitute checks. When you mail a completed, signed check to the SEC, the information from your check is scanned into the OTCnet system and used to generate a potential electronic transfer or substitute check from your account. Your check is voided and destroyed by SEC and you will not receive the original check back from your financial institution. By submitting your completed and signed check you authorize the conversion or truncation of your check into an electronic transaction or substitute check.

Notice to Customers Making Payment by Check

When you provide a check as payment to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), you authorize us either to use information from your check to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your account or to process the payment as a check transaction. If the ACH debit entry or substitute check is returned due to insufficient funds, we may initiate the transaction again.

Please refer to the Privacy Act Statement in regards to the collection of information under the PCC OTC program.
