Help Protect Checks & Business Transactions

Financial fraud can take several forms, from alterations to legitimate checks to counterfeit currency presented during a transaction. Fraud prevention pens provide businesses with a simple, affordable tool that can become part of everyday payment-handling procedures.

Fraud Prevention Pens for Signing Checks

A standard ballpoint pen may not provide the same protection as a pen specifically intended for signing financial documents.

These pens are useful for signing business checks and other important paper documents where resistance to alteration is desirable.

Counterfeit Detector Pens

Businesses that accept cash face a different type of fraud risk. Counterfeit detector pens provide a quick method for screening paper currency at the point of sale or during cash handling.

A detector pen can be a useful first-line screening tool for businesses that routinely receive cash and should be used as part of broader cash-handling procedures.
