The Telecheck concept started at a Honolulu Boy Scout meeting to flag bad check passers and expanded to Telecheck International with a $2 million business. Robert Baer left Telecheck to start Telecheck Franchising, Inc. and Daniel Walling opened Phoenix offices to apply the system locally. Telecheck uses phone inquiries and ID checks to build lists of known bad check writers and offers a $50 guarantee per approved check.
