A process in which a
check is
deposited as many times as is necessary in order for it to
clear. That is, if a check does not have sufficient
funds in the account to be deposited, the
bank continues to deposit it until funds become available and the check finally clears. This allows the recipient of the check to (eventually) receive funds on a check that would otherwise
bounce and saves the writer of the check from having to pay an
NSF fee.
