The Cheque Codeline Clearing with Cheque Truncation involves the processing of Cheques using its image and codeline thereby stopping the physical cheque at the point of first deposit. The cheque image together with the Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) information on the codeline are captured by the presenting bank and transferred electronically through the Clearing House Gateway (at GhIPSS) to the receiving bank.

This service has equalized the cheque clearing cycle nationwide reducing it from 3 to 10 days to 48 or 24 hours.
