Deposit & Account Services

We Can Help You Meet Your Daily Cash Needs

For companies that do a large volume of business in cash, PNC offers convenient and secure solutions for managing your currency deposits and meeting your daily cash needs. With PNC's Depository Services, you can concentrate funds into a central account, reconcile each depository account individually, and receive timely and accurate deposit information. These services, and their features, support your ability to manage funds efficiently, especially when your Demand Deposit Account (DDA) needs more than just the basics.

Depository Services

Zero Balance Account (ZBA)

Consolidate cash between your principal and subsidiary accounts

PNC Bank's Zero Balance Account (ZBA) service enables us to link your company's bank accounts using our own internal process. Once your daily banking transactions have been posted, we'll net the balance of each subsidiary account to the principal account.

Manage your disbursements
After your funds are consolidated in the main account, we'll automatically transfer funds to pay the items presented against the sub-accounts.

Using consolidated cash to fund payments can significantly benefit your business
You can simplify cash consolidation within your existing account structure, and avoid overdrafts on subsidiary accounts that can be caused by late day disbursements. You'll also reduce the time you spend initiating book transfers between company accounts and streamline funding between principal and subsidiary accounts.

We also make your reconciliation process easier. Every month you'll receive a statement with details on all your net zero balance transfers, identified by account number, for an accurate accounting of all your fund transfers.


Multicurrency Account (MCA)

PNC's Multicurrency accounts are deposit accounts that let you hold foreign currencies, instead of U.S. dollars, so it is easier for you to make and receive payments in international currencies.  These accounts are held by PNC Bank, National Association, and are FDIC insured, up to current FDIC insurance limits.

The right currency strategy can help you be more competitive. PNC’s multicurrency accounts make it easier for you to make and receive payments in 30 major and most emerging market currencies, including offshore Chinese Renminbi (CNH).You can initiate transactions from your accounts and review reporting through PINACLE®. You'll have only one statement and one banking relationship to manage.


Escrow & Sub-Accounting Services

Escrow & Sub-Accounting Services allow clients the opportunity to streamline the administration and reporting of clients’ escrow balances.

PNC offers a user friendly, self-managed online platform that leverages single sign on functionality through PINACLE® to help reduce the administrative burden of managing your client’s escrow balances, or your own self-managed funds, by maintaining a single master account that consolidates all balances where sub-accounting is performed at individual account levels.

PNC’s customized sub-accounting system can efficiently process a variety of escrowed/sub-account funds, including:

  • Landlord/tenants
  • Law firms
  • IOLTA
  • Funeral services/burial reserves
  • Real estate development
  • Care facilities
  • Education
  • Construction
  • Consultants

Remote Safe Solution®

With PNC’s Remote Safe Solution® service, you can manage the cash process at the cashier level for fast, accurate balancing, while at the same time ensuring accountability and security within the store.

The Remote Safe Solution also helps you to improve store productivity, and helps you to reduce the need to prepare the deposit for delivery to a branch or for an armored carrier pickup. Completion of a deposit ticket is no longer necessary with this solution. Since the smart safe captures data electronically, information can be aggregated for a single store or across an entire network of locations, providing timely information to improve cash flows and funding decisions. This same technology enables the smart safe to transmit daily cash totals to PNC for posting to your bank account.

How It Works

  • Insert bills through the currency acceptor, and the technology validates the denomination and provides counterfeit detection scans.
  • Complete your “end-of-day” process and reconcile the point-of-sale (POS) data with information captured by the smart safe.
  • Transmit the daily cash receipt totals electronically to PNC for posting to your bank account.

A Solution for Every Department

Operations: PNC’s Remote Safe Solution helps you reduce time spent on cash-handling functions, comply with procedural requirements, and to improve productivity.

Cash Managers: Automating the cash-handling process virtually eliminates human error when accepting cash, counting and reconciling the cash, and balancing individual cashiers at the end of the day.

Loss Prevention: A smart safe enables you to take cash handling out of a store’s cash operation, removing temptation and helping to reduce the threat of theft or mishandling.

Treasury Manager: Built-in communications enable the smart safe to post daily cash receipts without the need to visit the branch or wait for the armored carrier pickup.


Branch Deposits

PNC offers an array of options that can bring many core branch services to you. Advanced online technology, on-site and mobile capabilities complement conventional ATM and branch services.

PNC's Commercial Deposit Only ATM Card makes depository services for cash and checks available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and reports deposits by card for easy reconcilement.

Night drop provides next-day credit for deposits of cash and checks and is available 24/7.

Quick deposit allows you to present a mixed deposit at the branch using one deposit ticket and get provisional credit without having to wait while the cash portion of the deposit is verified.

PNC has developed an array of solutions to accommodate your unique depository needs including expanded on-site options. Your business type and locations can help determine the right mix of services. PNC's Remote Safe Solution and Deposit On-Site options enable you to make deposits at your place of business rather than traveling to the branch, potentially enhancing security and delivering faster posting.


Cash Logistic Services

PNC's convenient Cash Logistic Services and network of money room sites can help you reduce the time and costs involved with collecting and counting cash.

No longer will you need to make multiple trips to your local bank branch office. You can transport your cash deposits via a secure, armored carrier to more than 100 money room sites across the country.

Deposits made prior to our daily cutoff time will be credited to your account on the day of collection, so you can maximize your access to working capital and free up your staff to concentrate on more value-added tasks. Daily reports provided via our PINACLE® information reporting system will create an audit trail and let you keep track of all your deposits.

To meet your needs for cash on hand, you can enjoy the convenience of a web-based or an automated touch-tone ordering system to place currency/coin orders up to 14 days in advance.
